tigerdude36: that's all fine and dandy and everything, that you're comfortable with your religious beliefs. However, universiality assumes that we are all heterosexual white male christians. people who write universal songs are universally boring, unopinionated, and unfortunate human beings who are obsessed with pleasing everyone but themselves.
and yeah, eminem has yet to write a universal song, IMHO. i don't see why he would say that, or you would even bother quoting it, because it is obviously the biggest joke ever. |

wtf, are you sure it is titty set? has M.I.A. ever confirmed that? i'm not hearing that at all. what i hear:
"people judge me so hard coz i don't floss my teeth
say i was born out of dirt like i'm porn in a skirt." |

totally krossed out is still an amazing album. jump was crap compared to the way of rhyme. the beat mixed with the flow is just spectacular, especially for some little kids. |

i love how everyone is all "he couldn't play bass, he sucked." who cares? i'm not even a fan of the pistols (john lydon is a fucking dick) but even i know musical ability doesn't matter in this genre. it isn't music, it is trash. you learn as you go, you make noise, you have fun, you say something. end of story. just look at the slits and half japanese. neither of those bands knew how to play before they picked up their instruments and they have huge followings despite that. |

| of Montreal – Tim I Wish You Were Born a Girl Lyrics

when i was in high school i heard this song and i emailed kevin to ask him if he was gay because i was completely in love with him over this song. his reply was yes, he is indeed very happy.
this song meant so much to me then, and it still does now that i'm listening to it years after not having heard it. i wish they never went electric, the innocence of their earlier sound is lost. |

also, unless jamie has personally been on a battlefield he has no place talking about the war in such a fashion. this song is completely irresponsible and ignores the fact that the united states army specifically targets students and low-income individuals. they offered to pay my college tuition when i was graduating from high school. they sent me a razor for my 18th, 19th and 20th birthdays trying to pursued me to enlist. i'd sooner slit my wrist with the razors they sent, but some people don't feel like they have alternative options. not everyone is out there to blow off people's heads, and this song makes it sound like they are. |

i'm anti-war and even i think this song is fucking ridiculous. his intentions were good, but this is just not a well constructed song, at all. i don't know anyone who likes it. i have to skip over it everytime i listen to the album. |

| The Damned – Jet Boy, Jet Girl Lyrics
| 19 years ago

i love how the lines, "and if and when i make it though, or if my brain is stuck on glue, and when the world tries to forget all that i said, you know i'll still remember you" aren't cheaped at all by the "he gave me head" directly after. elton motello is brilliant.
...and i can't believe people didn't automatically get the "make you be a girl" line...he's talking about receiving head from a man the entire song. perhaps that's good, though. maybe it means you don't consider heterosexuality to strip a man of his masculinity (which, it doesn't). |

if you've ever been depressed, you get this song. i think it is probably one of the most accurate portrayals of depression in the mainstream 90's - at least from my own experiences with depression. you're suddenly attune to seemingly unimportant things (puddles gathering rain), you can't sleep, you want to live any life but your own, you're constantly searching for distractions, you feel like being honest about your thoughts will ostracize you from your friends and family ("insane"), and you just want the entire world to conform to what you're feeling (wishing for bad weather) so you can make sense of why you're feeling the way you do. |

the fact that the runaways were all "jail bait" at the time when they wrote this (i think they were all like 15 and 16 years old) goes along with the idea bruiseviolet was talking about. i mean, that obviously wasn't intentional on wolfe's part - she sings the way she sings no matter what song it is - but that is a nice little clash. i agree. |

this is also my favorite. i think people try entirely too hard to try and find homosexual undertones in new order songs. i'm gay and i'm getting nothing from this song aside from an extreme sense of lonliness and mistrust of people, none of that is gay specific. i don't think this is homosexual or heterosexual, it just is. |

"mickey leigh: i remember driving by fifty-third street and third ave and seeing dee dee ramone standing out there. he had a black leather motorcycle jacket on, the one he would later wear on the first album cover. he was just standing there, so i knew what he was doing, because i knew that was the gay boy hustler spot. still, i was kind of shocked to see somebody i knew standing there, like, "holy shit. that's doug standing there. he's really doing it" (please kill me 174).
"dee dee ramone: the song 53rd & 3rd speaks for itself. everything i write is autobiographical and very real. i can't write any other way" (please kill me 175).
this is proof enough for me, "punkrockariotchik."
also, lol@ feedyourhead thinking he referenced a bunch of super obscure punk bands. |

simply put, this song is heterosexist rhetoric from an ass-hurt junkie's point of view. hey dee dee, if you didn't want to be identified as a "sissy" or "fairy" perhaps you should have kicked the habit. idiot. |
