| Tori Amos – Fat Slut Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
"stick it in somewhere"... given pip's nature, the person this song is addressed to is definitely male. the third line: "to be stuck in your happy family" i think i recall reading in one of the blogs (clyde's or santa's.... i can't remember) that pip did not have a very good family life. given that, i bet that this is addressed to pip's father. |

| Cinema Strange – Lindsay's Trachea Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| This was written as a story, wasn't it? Something about "Dr. Lindsay" and his murderous alter-ego "Arkham Deadfly." | |
| Rasputina – If Your Kisses Can't Hold the Man You Love Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| I remember reading somewhere that this song was originally a cabaret song, popularized by Sophie Tucker. The somewhat dated language points to this, but I'm not sure if using the name "Dick" was meant as a double-entendre or not. | |
| Katzenjammer Kabarett – Geniune, A Fantastic Revue Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
Here is what I think: A ghost spoke to a painter and made him paint a portrait of her, so that she could go into the painting. Before the ghost (presumably a priestess named Genuine) died, she had been sold into slavery. Long after she and her owner had died, the ghost of her owner had found the painter (Percy), and tried to buy his slave back. There is also a possibility that Percy had fallen in love with Geniune's ghost, hence the refrain's lyrics. The portrait coming alive can be taken in several contexts: literally, as a dream, or as the ghost of Geniune possessing him. Another possibility is that Genuine was a prostitute, although I'm not sure of that one. |

| Jack Off Jill – Angels Fuck Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| Does anyone know what Jessicka is screaming in the background? I can make out short bits of phrases, but after listening very closely, I am almost positive that there is a recording of Jessicka yelling at someone (presumably the person who had left her), ending with the famous "I will never make it better! It will always hurt you fucking asshole!" although the phrases "Fucker! Fucker!" and "You never loved me!" are also very easily heard. | |
| Anna Nalick – Satellite Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| I figured that the red and white meant the colors of a satellite when you see it in the sky. Something symbolic like that.... It's likely that the red and white symbolizes multiple things. | |
| Evanescence – I Must Be Dreaming Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
Keep in mind that Evanescence's songs are often about short stories that Ben wrote.... whether they're construed in that way or not. "My Immortal" and "Haunted" were based on short stories. It's probably safe to say that "Bleed" is much the same way. Looking at the lyrics and listening to the way that Amy emotes the vocal part, it sounds like it's more likely to be about a murder. Besides, Evanescence does not write about cutting often at all; their only song about cutting is "Tourniquet", and that is technically a cover. "We all live. We all die. That does not begin to justify you." I see this as her telling the murderer that even though people are doomed to die, he/she has no right to commit the crime. I believe that the murderer may be someone close to the singer, seeing how she doggedly tries to convince herself it's not really happening. |

| Gwen Stefani – Danger Zone Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
I agree with Dannysheaven: this song sounds like it's about an STD of sorts. "I can't imangine how hard it must be to be you." "Are your secrets where you left them? 'Cause now your ghosts are mine as well." "And you should have told me when you met me..." "The damage in infectious, the confession is too late." Those lines and the whispers that Gwen does at the end.... It all points to STDs. |

| Anna Nalick – Satellite Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
It sounds like something along the lines of an abusive relationship: "Black and blue, I chose my way." Black and blue represents bruises, and the rest of the phrase talks about how she chooses to stay in a violent relationship. "So I found my guiding light, lambant, flashing red and white through a starry night." Red and white is obviously the opposite of black and blue. I think that the "satellite" in this song is her image of the perfect man; the complete opposite of the one she's with. In the chorus, she's begging for her knight-in-shining-armor of sorts to save her. While the "two-way radio" may just be a substitution for a satellite (since that is what a satellite essentially is), it may also be a telephone. This may suggest looking for someone else. "All in all I fare the same wishing on an aeroplane as calling stars by name. A lonely song of freedom rings, in hope of someone listening." This obviously adds to the whole telephone thing, but it also shows that she's trying in vain to find someone else. But that's just what I got from it. |
