Halffast "closed" this thread right at the beggining... Nice job mate, bullseye. Love can be as eternal as sun, wind and the rain... that doesn't mean that You should kill Yourself right on the spot... Your "suicide" in my opinion is just commiting Yourself for someone, letting all go, just loving someone. And what about comparing sexual act to dying? Ever heard of it? |

| Dire Straits – Brothers In Arms Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
I think that this song has a simple meaning, it incorporates simple anti-war message, why should anyone think it's about Civil War? The simplest truths are most powerful ones. Misty covered mountains, aren't mountains in Scotland, South Africa or Lebanon. Mountains has been used just to show that he's dying far away from his home... He's from the lowlands, dying in the highlands... The sun is an ideology, that pushed the soldiers forward, the "cause" for which they wanted to fight for, to die for... Only in the final moment of his life... he sees that there are no just causes, that "The enemy" is just his brother in arms, he is as human as himself. His "sun", "the moon" that shines for the enemy (opposite ideology), enlights the one world that they both live in. And fact that everyone has to die, doesn't mean that You should give Your life for Your country, for your sun... The starlight, every line on Your palm, (the universal truth) shows that You should love Your enemy, You should love every human being, not make war on them... Why wars are fought? Because of greed, of envy, and so on. If everyone was as human as he can be, there would never be war... Everyone can find a place for himself in our one world... we don't need wars, we don't need "suns" - the leaders pointing at someone with their finger telling us "it is the enemy". Every human is just the same. Excuse me my english - I'm polish. |

| Dire Straits – Telegraph Road Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
Fledgehog is right - all his theories are right, simple explanation - everything has its begining, its peak, and then everything fades. It is just nature of the things, of everything. Starting from ancient civilizations, through life of a human being, ending with love and relationships. Just as the city appears and grows "telegraph road", economic boom; so appeared the love - "i remember those times...", everything reaches its peaks - "six lines of traffic", "hand in my hair", then everything dimishes and vanishes - "no work to be found", "you seem a little colder", this song is about life and existence of everything, based on a "lifestory" of a city, and guy living in it. And the end - "they" just run away to start something new... guess how it'll end? I think that there's no hope... And my favorite part is "You know I’d sooner forget but I remember those nights When life was just a bet on a race between the lights " excuse me my english - I'm polish |
