| Muse – Resistance Lyrics | 16 years ago |

| Muse – MK Ultra Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| by far the best and most favourite track on the album resistance, and yes the song is about mind control ;) | |
| Muse – Uprising Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
"the PR transmissions will resume" i'm a sucker for acronyms and the disambiguation of their meaning i guess Bellamy means 'Public Relation transmissions', or is he talking about Peoples Republic, Problem Reports, Problem Resolution etc the list for PR acronyms is literally endless, though it makes it easier to put it into context with 1984 in mind |

| Christina Aguilera – Genie In A Bottle Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| This song has paradoxical sexual implications, it is about lesbianism, masturbation, and if Christina were to be a male singer here, which is where the contradiction lies, she is singing 'I'm a Genie in her Bottle' and I am. Listen to her singing, she is saying I'm a genie in HER bottle, magic in an empty place. This song crosses grammatical boundaries | |
| Dido – White Flag Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| I'd like to know what dido's definition of what 'white flag' is? | |
| Faithless – Insomnia Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
Maxi Jazz is a 'Nicheren Shoshu Buddhist', and buddhists describe enlightenment as 'being awake'. This lyrics to this song come from Maxi's belif's. It's not about not being able to get to sleep, it's about staying awake! |

Mark Knopfler wrote this song about a jazz band he seen in a club. I'm 25 years old. |
|
| UB40 – Mi Spliff Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| errrrm ..... Spliffs? | |
| Tupac Shakur – Only God Can Judge Me Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| I guess this song is about being in the eyes of the media and being criticized. | |
| Radiohead – Creep Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
This song was originally called 'Peep' heed the lead singer's called Tom. 'Peeping-Tom' make sense? Here are the original lyrics: 'But I'm a Peep I'm a weirdo What the hell am I doing here? I don't belong here' |
|
| Coolio – Too Hot Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| This song is about STD's. | |
| Tracy Chapman – Telling Stories Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| Tracy Chapman is a great poet/songwriter, I love this song. | |
| Tracy Chapman – Fast Car Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
This song is about the hope of a better life. Great song! one of my favourites |
|
| Tupac Shakur – Heavy in the Game Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
Let me be the first to comment ... This is my favourite song of of the album Me Against The World - [next to So Many Tears] - both of Tupacs verses' are delivered flawlessly with a good contribution by Richie Rich. Dope track! |
|
| Tupac Shakur – When I Get Free II Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
Thanks for uppin' this. Much better than the 'When I get free' imo. Quite clear what the song is about. |

| Pious. | |
| Alanis Morissette – Thank U Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| This song makes me cry. I love it. | |
| The Smiths – I Know It's Over Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| Brilliant song! | |
| Morrissey – Interesting Drug Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| zombie, yes it was meant to be 'there are some bad people on the right' - but mozz had to change it t o rise. | |
| Morrissey – (I'm) The End Of The Family Line Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| Morrissey is showing aversion to his parents, by announcing that he aint gonna give them the pleasure of being proud grandparents. | |
| Morrissey – Margaret On The Guillotine Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| Lol! Mozz is always criticizing the government. | |
| Madonna – Take A Bow Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
Yep, my favourite Madonna song too! This song is based around a Shakespeare quote 'All the world's a stage' |
|
| Madonna – Secret Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
Notice how Madonna doesn't actually tell you what the secret is... lol ... not directly anyway. '(a)(penis) lies in your own hands' 'something's cumming over me' 'Mmmmmm, my baby's got a secret' |
|
| Madonna – Like a Prayer Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
This song is built around double entendre(s). The lyrics are very clever (poetically) - it's what Madonna's good at - mixing concepts: good/bad, religion/taboo. This song doesn't have any one particular meaning, I don't see how people can't see that. |
|
| Tupac Shakur – God Bless The Dead Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
2Pac did die before Biggie, but Biggie will die out of the music business before Pac for this exact reason: 2Pac came at his music from 100's of different angles. The prethinking-prophet, rapping about the future was just one of them. "Don't worry if you see God first, tell him shit got worse" |
|
| Tupac Shakur – Picture Me Rollin' Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
This song is about him driving his car, as in rolling on wheels: "Picture me rolling in my 500 Benz" - Mercedes Benz. "Just picture me rollin' flossin' a Benz on rims that isn't stolen". |
|
| R.E.M. – Losing My Religion Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
I thought this song was about masterbation: "Oh Life!, its BIGGER, its 'bigger than you' and you are not me. The LENGHTS that I will go to" - Lol! |
|
| R.E.M. – The One I Love Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
This song is about perspectives! not relationships. Anyone notice how most of REM's songs put emphasis on the word 'I', which sounds the same as 'eye', as in 'Rapid EYE Movement'. Surely it aint hard to see that they have got a theme going here. For eg: 'Try Not to breath': "I will try not to breath, I can hold my head still with my hands at my knees, these eyes are the eyes of the old". - How many times does he sing I/Eye in that song? |
|
| The Smiths – Stretch Out and Wait Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| I love this song! | |
| The Smiths – Reel Around the Fountain Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
"It's time the tale were told, of how you took a child and you made him ooooooooh! You made him ooooooh!" I think this song is about sex with underage children. I know the lyrics say 'old' but the way Mozz sings it it's like 'oooooooooooooh!' as in expressing emotion.

| The Smiths – Still Ill Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| This song is about Work/Jobs/employment. | |
| The Smiths – Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| It's about Guys behaving like Girls. The title explains it all. | |
| The Smiths – Girlfriend in a Coma Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| 'Coma' here is used as a metaphor. | |
| The Smiths – Girlfriend in a Coma Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| This song makes me laugh. It is to do with sexuality - about the guy doing all the work and the girl just laying there, as if in a 'coma'. Lol! | |
| The Smiths – Ask Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
This song is great! Morrissey's way with words means that the song can be interpreted in different ways. When I first heard this song I thought it was about trying to encourage someone, who's shy, withdrawn and introvert, to come out of their shell. - From a different perspective, I hear the narrator commenting on mounint tensions between him and an adversary, taunting, goading him saying "If there's something you' like to try ... ASK ME - I WON'T SAY NO, HOW COULD I!" |
