| Forgive Durden – The Spider and the Lamps (feat. Max Bemis) Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
I adore this song--thanks to Max Bemis, it's one of my favorites on "Razia's Shadow," with "Doctor Doctor" as a close second (Shawn Harris, in my opinion, just steals the show with his part!!!) The line "Yeah, such arrogance," is definitely sung by Thomas Dutton, though. Not sure if you want to separate it from the Barayas lines or not. |

| Gym Class Heroes – Sloppy Love Jingle Part 3 Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| I think there's a mistake on one line: it should be "Right before we left Disashi bought me one more." And in the background I can definitely make out Travis saying "Good lookin' out, Sash." | |
| Gym Class Heroes – Viva La White Girl Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
Am I the only one who hears "We are lust to live glamorous" instead of "Lovers to the glamorous"? I could be wrong, but no matter how hard I listen I just don't get that. With that said, I love this song, and I definitely agree with the idea that the lyrics draw parallels between drug addiction and addiction to music. |

| The Academy Is... – Skeptics and True Believers Lyrics | 19 years ago |

I agree with WarmLikeSnow, that the girl doesn't feel the same way about him, but I'm not sure that there was never any feeling at all on her part. The "I wouldn't believe you if you said the same to me" line seems to imply that she needs him, too. On the other hand, you could be right--she could have him so caught up in her lies that he just thinks she needs him when, in fact, she's just leading him on. I'm not really sure. It's a great song, musically and lyrically: "Someone somewhere said some things that may of sparked some sympothny" is my favorite line, mostly because I like the alliteration. My inner English major is showing, isn't it? ;-) |

The line "so show me something we haven't heard yet" is definitely like an open challenge to "the scene," I suppose, daring artists to do something original. The band definitely lives up to this challenge. I bought this album a while back, and I'm practically addicted to it--I play it all the time at work, and even my co-workers are hooked. I think it's also a way of saying that the guys in TAI are comfortable with their collective identity as a band, they like their own music (always a plus!) and they'd like to gain recognition on their own terms rather than conforming to mainstream perceptions of what "good" music is. I definitely love TAI; I thought they were a "poor man's fall out boy" like Meefy said, until I gave them a chance back in December. They're definitely different, a lot more mellow than FOB (to me, at least), and more melodic. Great stuff. |
