| Bright Eyes – Cartoon Blues Lyrics
| 17 years ago
|
I'm over 99% sure he's refering to Padric My Prince because basically that entire song is about a baby dying. Also even the water part 'cause in the song Padric drowned.
Anyway, good song, I took the cartoon part to mean that people don't see him as a real person or something, but I could understand the drug references. I don't think he meant pot as in weed though because Conor just doesn't write like that, he alludes to drugs but I don't think he ever really blatantly says the names besides with alcohol, I saw it as more of the conversation ending or something, I honestly have no idea. |

| Death Cab for Cutie – Brothers on a Hotel Bed Lyrics
| 17 years ago
|
yeah, I think anyone who's ever had to share a hotel bed with their brother understands what he's talking about.. like it's awkward and uncomfortable and you both sleep as far apart as you can, turned the other way. like even though he and his wife are still together, they aren't attracted to each other anymore and they just sleep together in a platonic way like you would if you were in bed with your own brother.
I think it's about someone who got married at a young age and realizes that he's getting older and isn't as attractive as he was when he was younger and he's starting to realize his wife has noticed and how much tension there is between them.
It's a simple yet beautiful song.
and I'm sure everyone has already said what I did lol |

| Avril Lavigne – Girlfriend Lyrics

what? avril was a sellout when she CAME out. I've never liked her and think she makes us Canadians look pretty dumb, but I do like this song. It's catchy, but I'd be embarassed if someone walked in on me listening to it. She thinks she's so "cute" now, it's so irritating. I think this song is mocking sluts, but I also think she's going to move into that direction.. |

I'm pretty sure he could've written the song when he was 13, but didn't record it 'til he was 15-17. And it's not that likely that he was 14 when he recorded any of those songs because his birthday is February 15, 1980. Not saying it isn't possible, just that it really isn't likely. |

| NOFX – Franco Un-American Lyrics
| 17 years ago
|
to the guy who wrote about NOFX only meaning NOFX (random?), he's said in oldd interviews that it's because when they started most of the guys in the band were straight-edge and Fat Mike wasn't.. so No F(at Mike) X (Straight-Edge). He's admitted that it was stupid..
Woo go Canadians! I live in America now (for the past 8 years) and I hate how different their attitudes are. Yeah, Canada and Australia have their share of bastards, but you can't go one place here without watching someone give the people working there with complete attitude and treating them like shit or like their stupid when they're just trying to help. Too many egos and attitudes here.
My whole family and a couple friends still in Canada so we go visit a lot and it's such a shock because I know we're not that far away but everyone just seems more nice and calm, no fat soccer moms in sweatpants in public.. I mean America has some really cool people too but being calm is seen as apathy here.
anyway, i thought this song was satire til i found out fat mike turned vegetarian. |

| NOFX – Clams Have Feelings Too (Actually They Don't) Lyrics
| 17 years ago

yeah, apparently Fat Mike is now vegetarian ([Er. has been since at least 1997] He said he doesn't have enough discipline to be total vegan &that he eats shellfish and freerange poultry). NOFX's older songs mock vegetarians though.
So yeah, I thought this song was making fun of vegetarians, but then I read an interview where he said that he only did that back in his "punky snot-nosed kid" days. So um. yeah. I guess he's being serious &giving the reasons why he can eat clams. or something. Reading peoples interpretations on NOFX songs is really giving me a headache, they're not that hard to figure out. |

| Flight of the Conchords – Albi the Racist Dragon Lyrics
| 17 years ago
|
i think it's just trying to show how he was a racist dragon but really the town was racist for chasing him into a cave. and then he sees a kid he burned who was sent there too..
Albi began to cry dragon tears. Which as we all know turn into jellybeans! :)
Boy: No Albi, you didn’t kill me with your dragon flames. I crawled to safety! But you did leave me very badly disfigured.
(laughed the boy)
hahah laughed. |

yeah, those lyrics are pretty bad, but all corrections I had that person already said haha.
yeah, it's about drinking at the Triple Rock. I think it's pretty clever. And yeah, he mentions how drinking there is kind of like a religion.. I don't know how to explain it 'cause i think it's pretty self-explanatory. |

| Bright Eyes – I've Been Eating (For You) Lyrics
| 17 years ago
|
yeah, it's about this girl that was using a guy... he had feelings for her but she only came to him when she wanted sex.. the "Yeah I'm just a medicine you take when you're sick" part. right.
Basketball part is pretty obvious. The HIV part is interesting but I'm not so sure he meant anything more than hi-fives.
The end is about how he's realized she only wants him for sex and he hasn't felt like eating anymore. But by "appetite" I think he means appetite for living &that he doesn't feel like living without her.
He mentions eating disorder sooo much, but then again he has a lot of songs..
a very good song and, yeah, very very bitter. |

yeah, I also agree with what everyone said.. god, it feels like I've loved MSI forever.. About 3 years ago before any of us could drive, my stepdad came with us to their concert at the 930 club hahaha. He was like "yeah, i kinda like them.." so weird. anyway, this is probably my favorite song by them.. maybe not.. but I love the "nothing hurts anymore ...nevermind" part the best. :) |

Yeah, I hate this band and I really hate this song. Not only because like.. wtf and I'm sure it hurts people who've been cheated on.. but also because it's just so stupid. Like. She's trying to be a slut, ok whatever, but she could at least be slutty with a good song. And also, why the hell are there like. 9 of them. And now they're on a "search for the next pussycat doll" ..I think they already have enough. |
