Bright Eyes – Everything Must Belong Somewhere Lyrics 18 years ago
"let it be" i guess.
everything he mentions is something that's not necessarily nice, but is natural/should be.
and i think he's saying rather than trying to change it, just them, and him, be.

"leave the cauliflower in the casserole" hahaha

Belle & Sebastian – If You Find Yourself Caught in Love Lyrics 19 years ago

Belle & Sebastian – Act of the Apostle II Lyrics 19 years ago
okay i finally figured this song out, after reading some review on the web.

so continued from part I, this girl looks for an answer in religion

"the bible's my tool" "my damascan's road's my transistor radio" "i am devout"
her passion for religion is described like a typical kid's passion for music.
religion's her escape? something like that.

but when the music for the first part returns, she's let down by religion. and yea.

Belle & Sebastian – Song for Sunshine Lyrics 19 years ago
lol moho you're also the only one who dp'd.

i think that's the beauty of the song. the whole 70's soul-funky sound going on. i love it.

as far as lyrics go, i think it's that whether if you are poor or rich, it's the same.

first verse, probably about the wastes of society.

the "wheel of a fortune" bridge part.
sounds like something coming back to bite you back in the ass. like you do something to make things better, but it turns out worse.

love the keyboard and the backup vocals in this one. stevie's sweet.

Belle & Sebastian – Judy and the Dream of Horses Lyrics 19 years ago
actually on the second listen, it's "thoughts in your head"
correction to be made.

Bright Eyes – June on the West Coast Lyrics 19 years ago
afdslk such a good song..

i think the car thing is a metaphor, like a car closed up too tight = he secludes himself, which kinda ties into the verse "and i wouldn't have to bring up my so badly broken heart" part

that verse is totally my favorite. "where the forest and the water become one"

and yea, the girl is about the one he hasn't met yet.
on the june 4th show in vancouver, he playd it aand sang it as "i thought about my true love, the one i haven't met"

beautiful.

Belle & Sebastian – Lazy Line Painter Jane Lyrics 19 years ago
my favorite b/s song.. ITS SO GOOD!
i love the organ.
monica queen should be a member of b/s
such a rockin, yet laid back song..
chec k out the live video on youtube.com it's great.

so summing up what everyone said, it's about a girl who lives on the street, licking lines etc and has fun,
then she finds that she has an std, and she doesn't know what to do and she sits there, feeling bad about herself, and her name, and what she's going to do about it..
the liner note from the ep is pretty helpful.

haha cannibal.

Belle & Sebastian – I'm a Cuckoo Lyrics 19 years ago
such a sad song.

I was there when you were sad
I was there when you were bad

those two lines are backwards, it should be bad/sad

submissions
The Who – Quadrophenia Lyrics 20 years ago
this song doesn't have any meaning. it's just an overture of the entire album, like the one in tommy
except toimmy's overture does contain some plot, (captai walker didn't come home) but it's just basically parts of the songs in the album put into a suite.

i love little snippet of "kids are alright" at the end

submissions
The Who – I Am The Sea Lyrics 20 years ago
i like it. really sets up the whole "sea and sand" theme for the whole album

and the "can you see the real me" part and how it rips into the real me is great.

The Who – Love, Reign O'er Me Lyrics 20 years ago
great song

i love the very last ending note such an intense ending to an intense album

pete's guitar playin and roger's singing are both excellent

The nights are hot and black as ink
I can't sleep and I lay and I think

i can't sleep and i lay and i think, the nights are hot and black as ink

The Who – We're Not Gonna Take It Lyrics 20 years ago
this is another one of my favorite songs from it.

watching the movie helsp a lot. tommy pretty much turns into a dictator, controlling all the followers "put on your eyeshades, put in your eyeplugs, you know where to put the cork" to become like him, and the they revolt.

still not sure abvout the see me feel me/listening to you part but it sure is the perfect end to the alubm.

amazing.

submissions
The Who – Go To The Mirror Lyrics 20 years ago
agreed, this song is my favorite off tommy.

the movie version is really bad compared to the alubm, but still okay.. it's such a good song to start off anyway.

so simple, but the lyrics and the "See me feel me" part is amazing.

LISTEN to the live at leeds version. it's mindblowing.

submissions
The Who – Sea And Sand Lyrics 20 years ago
probably my favorite song off quadrophenia.

i think it's about him being kicked out of the home (they finally kicked me out) (now i guess the family's complete wiht me hanging out on the street, or here on hte beach)

the beach is some sort of a metaphor, maybe a place where he feels free (nothing is planned by the sea and the sand) also mentioned in bell boy, as well as lots of other songs. of course, the opening track is called "i am the sea"

i love the line "come sleep on the beach, stay within my reach, i just want to die with you here, i'm feeling so high with you here"

The Who – A Quick One While He's Away Lyrics 20 years ago
the live at leeds version is the best most definately.

the story about the song can be heard at the end of "i'm a boy" on live at leeds. pretty thorough and funny explanation.

i love john's bass playin/singing in the live at leeds. must hear for who fans.
