| Gnarls Barkley – Crazy Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| This song has a cery classic soung, which makes it stand out from most other disposable music from today, and makes this something unique. Plus its got the ability to stick in your head and go over and over, which only backs up how good the song is. | |
| Bruce Springsteen – I'm on Fire Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| This song is about wanting someone so much they feel as if they are on fire from their "burning desire". Certainly a very smooth and well-sung song. Brilliant tunage. | |
| Black Box – Ride On Time Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| I cannot believe this is the first comment. I remember this from the early 90's when I was at a Junior School disco. Absolute classic tune that certainly can ride on time and sounds good even in 2006! | |
| Infernal – From Paris to Berlin Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| A good song where someone wants someone every time they enter a disco. A good song for clubbing and has a beat thats certainly catchy. | |
| U2 – Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| An absolute masterhit from Achtung Baby, one of the best songs on the album. This song relates to a break up, and certainly is good to listen to if you go through one. Bono really puts emotion into this song and makes it stand. | |
| U2 – Tryin' To Throw Your Arms Around The World Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| I love this song, another brilliant song from Achtung Baby. I love the chorus "I'm gonna run to you, run to you, run to you". Also some great witty lines "A woman needs a man, like a fish needs a bicycle". | |
| U2 – Zoo Station Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| Basically I see this song as U2's way of announcing their new style to the world. A world apart from the previous albums (The Joshua Tree/Rattle and Hum). Fantastic however! | |
| U2 – So Cruel Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
This is one of my favourite songs from Achtung Baby. this song is so emotional about how someone can be So Cruel to someone they love. The emotion in this song is very powerful and it really hits home, to the point of tears. Incredible song. |
|
| U2 – One Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| I agree with xdvr, Mary J Blige has wrecked a timeless classic which is the best song from Achtung Baby and one of U2's best songs ever. She brings nothing new to the song. Bono will be the only person to ever sing this and make me feel th emotion intended. | |
| Pet Shop Boys – Heart Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| This song is basically about how someone feels when they see or be near someone that they really like. Simple lyrics, with a positive idea. The lyrics fit in with how you feel when you are near someone who you really like. | |
| Pet Shop Boys – What Have I Done To Deserve This? Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
This song is about two people who have met at their job and have fell in love, and then split up. Neil sings about how he used to treat his partner "I bought you drinks, I brought you flowers I read you books and talked for hours Every day, so many drinks Such pretty flowers, so tell me What have I, what have I, what have I done to deserve this?" Dusty Springfield (who duets on this song) is singing about how will she get through without her former partner, because she thought she could get on without him, but couldnt. This song is one of my favourite duets, with Neils and Dusty's voices complimenting each other. |
|
| Pet Shop Boys – Shopping Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| I see this as a song about "shopping" for information. I have often thought of Actually (the album this song comes from) as an album story about criminals, and this is one of the episodes where they are "Shopping" for people's private information.....theyre basically fraudsters. | |
| Pet Shop Boys – Rent Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| As the comment above states, its about someone who will love someone else for money "I love you, you pay my rent" pretty much sums it up. A very "hurt" song and you can hear in his voice the shame of what the song is about, makes this more of an iconic song. | |
| Pet Shop Boys – One More Chance Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| I see this as a song about someone who wants another chance to do something. I have always seen a "crime element" to Actually, and this is the opening song to Actually where he is singing about getting another chance to do some sort of crime. | |
| Pet Shop Boys – King's Cross Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| I view this as a song about someone waiting to meet someone else at King's Cross station after some sort of crime has been comitted, but he doesnt know when they will arrive. I always found a "crime story" element to Actually, the Album this song comes from. | |
| Pet Shop Boys – Always On My Mind Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| This song is so moving, it gives me goosebumps every time I hear it. One of the best covers of this classic song. | |
| Pet Shop Boys – It's A Sin Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| One of their greatest hits, this song is as has been suggested above, the Church's predjudice against homosexuality, and how his whole life is "a sin" because the church says so. The video for this song shows Neil as a religious figure begging for forgiveness. | |
| Pet Shop Boys – Hit Music Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
This is about listening to music on the Radio, and about living for the music and living a music-based lifestyle, the verse: "Live a lie dance together All night long to your favourite song Live and die, it's all that we know I need a friend at the journey's end" Suggests that he wants to dance all his life, and thats the only way that he knows. Overall a very upbeat and catchy tune. |
|
| Pet Shop Boys – I Get Along Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| This is about getting on with life after a relationship has ended, and how he gets along without his former lover. | |
| Pet Shop Boys – I Want To Wake Up Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
This song means to me that its about someone who is in love with someone else and wants to "Wake up" from his feelings, or from the nightmare the relationship has become. "It's mad, to be in love with someone else When you're in love with him, she's in love with me But you know as well as I do I can never think of anyone but you " This means that his partner loves some other guy, and another woman loves him, but all he can think of is someone else. Basically this song is about wanting to "wake up" from something you dont want to carry on with. |
|
| Justin Hayward – Forever Autumn Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
This song is absoluteley fantastic. Its catched how you feel when you lose contact with someone special. And Justin Hayward's voice suits this song perfectly. An incredible song... |
|
| The Hollies – I'm Alive Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
I can't believe nobody has commented on this song, its a fantastic song by The Hollies! This song is about feeling alive by someone special, and how life before this person wasnt really living. Its like this special person gives them their senses. Absoluteley fantastic song! |
|
| Creedence Clearwater Revival – Who'll Stop the Rain? Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| Another great song by CCR, this song has so much to offer the listener. When John is accompanied with vocals in the "Still I wonder, Who'll Stop The Rain", the effect is amazing. John has a very powerful voice, and this does this song much justice. Certainly a song thats easy and enjoyable to listen to. | |
| Creedence Clearwater Revival – Green River Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| My favourite CCR song. So simple and catcy. The imagery involved really lets you imagine what its like to be at Green River. I love this song! | |
| Coldplay – A Message Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
Its like it says, its a message to let someone know how much they love them, and that they are nothing without them. But also that theyre not going to hold anything back and be honest. Its basically a song about love, and one thats not like the clichés of other love songs. The beats and soaring guitars and vocals are awesome in this song, and make this song stand out very much on X&Y. One of my favourites. |
|
| Coldplay – Talk Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| This song is a personal favoutite of mine, as I relate to the lyrics perfectly, as I feel the way Chris Martin sings about in the song. Everything about this song I love, the riff, the lyrics, the wierd video and the meaning behind the song. When I play this song, its as if its being sung about how I feel. | |
| U2 – Sometimes You Can't Make It on Your Own Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
This song is one of the most beautiful tributes ever. Its not a song you can just play, its a song for emotional times, when you feel emotion and you want the song there to bring it out. The way Bono sings the chorus is just beautiful. "And its you when I look in the mirror..." this is one of the most moving parts, and also: Can - you - hear - me – when – I - Sing, you’re the reason I sing You’re the reason why the opera is in me… Where are we now? I’ve got to let you know A house still doesn’t make a home Don’t leave me here alone... These lyics just blow me away with utter raw emotion. There are very few songs that can make me feel the emotion that this song has. I say its U2s best "recent" song. It will always strike deep emotional chords with me, always... |
|
| U2 – Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| I agree with DiscoFrank, it is about Batman. But its a god song, and the opening guitar just gets in the mood for a song thats "something else". A brilliant movie soundtrack. | |
| U2 – Hawkmoon 269 Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
This song is simple, its about needing someone's love so much. I love it for it being simple in that way. If there is someone you really like and would give anything to be with, you can listen to this song, and it will sum up how you feel. Fantastic song! The organ by Bob Dylan at the beginning and gospel choir at the end make this song that bit special. |
|
| U2 – Gone Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| A very striking song, the best part is the strange guitar, which only makes it better. What this song means to me is that it can be seen as a song to tell someone you're not coming back (if a relationship has ended). | |
| U2 – Fast Cars Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
This song is about how material things are no good for you, but yet we still have them as we enjoy them. I also believe it could be about how these things can take over our mind with the line Dont You Worry About Your Mind and I’m going nowhere Where I am it is a lot of fun They’re in the desert to dismantle an atomic bomb I watch them channel hop Check the stocks I’m in detox I want the lot of what you’ve got If what you’ve got can make this stop this verse describes how the person is enjoying where they are and dont want to leave whilst there are people out there attempting things that are a risk to many lives. And how they would like everything to make all these things stop. Thats what I can take from this song. But mostly I just enjoy the good listening it offers. |
|
| U2 – Even Better Than The Real Thing Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| I'm not sure on what this means, whether it is saying that someting that doesnt properley exist is better than its "real" counterpart or what. But its one hell of a good song, very enjoyable. | |
| U2 – All Because of You Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
This song basically means how because of one person, the singer has become the person he is in the present. The line: An intellectual tortoise Racing with your bullet train means to me that intelligence represented by one of the slowest moving creatures on land, can keep up with one of the fastest moving vehicles on land. This contrast is one of my favourite lyrics in this song. The Edge on guitar is awesome too! |
|
| U2 – Electrical Storm Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
I beleive this song is about being in love, and how that person feels about the other such as "you're in my mind, all of the time, but I know thats not enough" meaning that they love their partner so much they thing about them all time, but they want to think about them even more. I have 3 different versions of this song (Including the William Orbit Mix from Best of 1990-2000), and I love this song. The video was magnificent! |
|
| U2 – Discothèque Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
This song to me sounds like a referance to drugs, the line: you can reach but you can't grab it you can't hold it control it you can't bag it you can push but you can't direct it circulate regulate oh no you cannot connect it this is saying that you try to reach out to drugs and take them, but you can't just grab them.can push drugs, but not direct where they will end up, that you can't regulate the use of drugs or try to have some sort of control. The title of the song is where the drugs are used, as drugs (such as Ecstacy) are taken in Nightclubs, or discotequés by the revellers. This song is basically about people going to discos to do drugs. Although I have heard the (Best of 1990-2000 NEW MIX) of this song, I find it lyricall clever, and very very catchy. Love this song! |
|
| U2 – Desire Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
This song is describing how desires for things can be incredibly strong, with a "burning" feeling. The line: She's the dollars, she's my protection Yeah, she's a promise in the year of election Oh sister, I can't let you go says that the desire is for a woman. The song also questions why people preach: I'm like a preacher stealing hearts at a travelling show For love or money, money, money... this makes me thing whether the preachers are doing it for the love of the followers, or to make a get-rich-quick. A very thought-provoking line... But this song is still great to listen to, fantastic! |
|
| U2 – Crumbs From Your Table Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
This chorus describes how people who need things feel: You speak of signs and wonders But I need something other I would believe if I was able But I’m waiting on the crumbs from your table Basically saying they would believe the "signs and wonders", but because of their waiting for the "crumbs from your table" or the little bits of what they need, they can no longer have faith in believing. |
|
| U2 – Beautiful Day Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
This song basically means, that whatever is happening, its still a beautiful day and it shouldnt be wasted "dont let it get away". By far one of the most uplifting songs I have ever heard. |
|
| U2 – Are You Gonna Wait Forever? Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
I heard this song is a B-Side to the Vertigo single. Its a pretty good song, which is basically asking if you're going to wait forever before you do something you have been meaning to. The lyric "dont trade your dreams for some small change" hits me. Very nice lyric thats saying that you shouldnt give up on dreams for something thats much less in value. The overall message behind this song is positive. |
|
| U2 – All I Want Is You Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| This song is basically a song thats saying that out of all the desireable material things that can be offered, you only want the person. And sometimes it means making and breaking promises. | |
| U2 – A Man and a Woman Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
This song means to me that its not worth "losing love to find romance". The lyric "the soul needs beauty for a soul mate" is beautiful and sums up that the soul is a beautiful thing, and therfore needs something beautiful for company. Very romantic song |
