| Sade – Babyfather Lyrics
| 15 years ago
|
the meaning's quite obvious. i definitely sense that this song is personal for sade adu. she had her daughter with a jamaican musician that she is no longer with and the lyrical composition as well as the reggae influences on this song definitely convey to me that this song was written for her daughter.
love it.
love sade. <3 |

| No Doubt – Underneath It All Lyrics
| 17 years ago
|
not that this'll ever get changed and i don't expect white kids who are so devastated by no doubt having lady saw on their record (which i love by the way; i mean, god forbid they try something new a put a little reggae into their already heavily reggae-influenced ska music), but, here is what lady saw is actually saying:
cause underneath it all,
you are my real prince charming
like the heat from the fire
you are always burning
anytime you're around
my body keeps calling for your touch,
your kisses, and your sweet romancing
there's another side of you that this woman adore
aside from your temper,
everything else secure
i know you're good for me baby
of that i'm sure
cause over and over again,
me want more
anywho, this song is about gwen and gavin. and their day at the park :) and about how he's really lovely underneath it all. |

| Lovage – Stroker Ace Lyrics

the first line is actually "monsieur-dame(s)" which means "sir(s) and madam(s)" and is why she later says "you BOTH look awfully kind". so no, she doesn't want dan. well, maybe she does, but, she doesn't say his name in this song.
i think this song is about her wanting to have a threesome with a couple after breaking up with her boyfriend, which is secretly what all girls want to do after going through a break up. |

lol @ rihanna is amazing. did she write this song? nope. as much as it pains me to admit this, justin timberlake, and timbaland of course, are amazing. not rihanna. |

| Portugal. The Man – Elephants Lyrics
| 18 years ago
|
well, accidental messiah, you pretty much just solidified your position as my future baby daddy with that response.
why anyone feels the need to write off someone else's interpretation of a song is beyond me. imo, portugal the man hardly ever makes sense anyway, and are just singing strings of lyrics they threw together, so i commend anyone who can find some sort of meaning in their songs. |

luvme88, you say that like someone on here really wanted to know. and it disturbs me that you dated cisco adler for 5 years meaning you started dating him at, what, age 13-14. but, considering who we're talking about here, it's not surprising in the least. |

| Envy on the Coast – Sugar Skulls Lyrics
| 18 years ago
|
well if isabella is his girlfriend's middle name, i would assume that this song is directed to her. sort of a "don't worry babe, i'm not sleeping with groupies," just more eloquently worded.
"She's just a little girl, she knows nothing of this little game we
like to play"
that could mean that she's so young and knows nothing about what the band encounters on the road.
anyone care to elaborate or contest? |

actually, after listening to the entire song, i see what you mean. i'm pretty sure it's ryan in the beginning. but towards the end, it's probably sal or something. i believe he sings on their tracks every now and then. |

not to argue but, pardon me for assuming they would be interested in making sense, as 'race,' in that context at least, makes no sense. i suppose they run their purevolume page, but whoever typed up the lyrics may have mistyped, as he clearly sounds like he's saying 'rage.' but maybe they are saying race. i would love for someone to explain to me what that means though. |

undefinedlojik, that's how it is with most producers. look at mark ronson, he doesn't sing, he's a dj. but all his songs are labeled mark ronson FEATURING amy winehouse or lily allen, or whomever. |

actually, i agree with whoever said something about suicide. he uses the metaphor of being hanged in the first verse, and makes it clear that even though his significant other tries to "save" him with a "sorry," it's too late. |

for the second verse, i think he says "and you say 'sorry' LIKE the angel heaven let me think was you"
such a pretty song. the meaning is straight forward and i'm not that deep, so i'll leave it at that. |

klaymore, that's awfully cute. i'm going to go ahead an assume you are white. and with that said, i do believe that white men account for the majority of domestic abusers, serial killers, and psychopaths. the song is obviously meant to be taken lightly, and it's sad when race has to be brought up on a site purely devoted to finding the meaning in songs. |

not too sure what this is about. i think they definitely touch on the "cycle of life."
"calm touching brings results" obviously means "sex brings about life." |

| Imperial Teen – Ivanka Lyrics

probably not. but, 'ivanka' is such a good name for whomever he is speaking of, and i'm sure he named the song after ivanka trump, as [i hope] no one else has that name. |

| Daddy Yankee – Gasolina Lyrics

i think this is the most viewed lyric on the site because everyone (meaning, those who aren't fluent in spanish) is curious as to what he is actually saying, because we all just kind of mumble along when we hear it.
and, yea, reggaeton has no substance. but, lay off of it. just because this isn't a song with some obscure title with lyrics about skipping in fields then slitting your wrists, but truly about some rock band's criticism of the vietnam war doesn't mean it can't be enjoyable. sillies. |

i too think it's about elisha, especially cuz of the 'name' thing.
though, i'm sure justin is still in love with brit, i think he's gotten past it enough to stop writing bitter songs. but, he and britney could've been on the verge of engagement, so the song could be about her still. ya never know. |

i've always wondered, did brandon reilly sing the demo version too? because if he did, his voice has evolved immensely. he sounds like a snot-nosed devastated child in the demo, yet, more "cool-daddy"-ish on the final version. |

well, like you said, you're portuguese - from portugal. they speak the language portuguese in brazil, yes, but maybe they say hombre down there? even if it is used as slang.
anywho, i like this song. i doubt there's any real meaning behind it besides spewing pick up lines at hot brazilian men, which is my favorite thing to do so, yes, me likey. |

i actually never though too in-depth about this song until now. i thought they were referring being able to love any girl by the title and lyrics of this song. but now that you guys point out the "sexist" part of it, and the lyrics being about lust instead of love, i agree. though i'm too stupid to elaborate. |

actually, Socha, i'm pretty sure gardobus was referring to the second to last part, which is actually a female. he says he sings every part but one. and i sure do hope that one is the one gardobus is talking about. otherwise, he must feel terribly gay at this point. |
