The Decemberists – Billy Liar Lyrics
| 13 years ago
|
What in the world is lino? The only definition I can find is a shortened form of 'linoleum'. Lolling on the linoleum...? I always thought it was "line, oh". It makes marginally more sense to me somehow. Oh well, regardless this is a lovely and mischeivous song that will always be one of my favorites. :) |

The Decemberists – I Don't Mind Lyrics

this song is certainly lyrical enough, and beautiful too, but something about it just doesn't quite do it for me. I guess the music just doesn't flow as well as a lot of their other songs. Great song nonetheless |

Pari26, its a recurring theme in literature that destruction is a form of creation. death= rebirth of life, etc. And the way she describes Heaven and Hell come crashing down is awe-inspiring, like it would be beautiful if it wasnt so awfully terrible... thats my impression anyway |

The Whitest Boy Alive – Don't Give Up Lyrics

what a lovely song.
to me its about someone who is disenchanted with society and the conformity of the people around him/her.
it could also apply to a relationship, esp. the part about the making a move and the ignoring and such....
oh hell i dont really know what im talking about.
but i do love this song. |

I agree, I also thought they were British! haha
Anyone who prefers Hot Fuss to Sam's Town is a lunatic. Their new material is much more sophisticated and interesting than their old nonsense. I've just recently become a fan for the first time in my life! |

Tarkio – Save Yourself Lyrics

I always listen to this song when I feel obligated to do something I really don't want to do. Especially since I am avoidant in general, and i really identify with the "Jerry Lewis Telethon" verse especially.
Great song. |

The Elected – It Was Love Lyrics
| 14 years ago

hmm, i dont really get sad when I hear this song.
I always think of it as like, a total recollection of the memories of a relationship that just didn't happen to work out- not as a really sad breakup song. Not just the good memories are recalled, the bad ones are too, but to me it seems like the narrator was happy the relationship took place as opposed to wishing it had never happened. |
