Broken Social Scene – Anthems for a Seventeen Year Old Girl Lyrics 17 years ago
Oh - and the way it's sung is like a ghost, small voice from the past. Her teenage self calling to her. Oh it just makes sense!

Broken Social Scene – Anthems for a Seventeen Year Old Girl Lyrics 17 years ago
I think this song is about a woman looking back on how she used to be as a teenager.

Used to be the one of the rotten ones
And I liked you for that
Now you're all gone, got your make-up on
And you're not coming back

Pretty obvious, she used to be rebellious and she liked that about her old self. Now she's grown up and has lost that side of herself. The line "got your make-up on" makes me think of her as being a smart businesswoman now. She knows she can't get her teenage self back again.

Bleachin' your teeth, smiling flash
Talking trash, under your breath (I'm sure it IS under your breath first time round!)

Again, the bleaching teeth and smiling flash make me think of the businesswoman trying to impress others and make deals, always smiling fakely. Then the talking trash, under your breath is like she hasn't got the courage (or the lack of responsibility) to say what she really feels anymore, like she did when she was a teenager. She has to say it under her breath instead.

Park that car
Drop that phone
Sleep on the floor
Dream about me

Ok, best verse! This just makes me see her having a breakdown, or moment of realization. Like, she's on the phone to some big business client (sorry, im obsessed with her being a businesswoman! :D) and then suddenly she just can't take it anymore so she just drops her phone, stops her car, curls up in the back seat and... dreams of her old self

beautiful :)

Fiona Apple – Paper Bag Lyrics 18 years ago
I think that the lyrics "hunger hurts, but starving works" mean that when she sees the guy in the song every now and then (ie. hunger is when youve eaten not too long ago) she feels really upset but when she hardly sees the guy at all (ie. starving is when you havent eaten for a long time) it works! great song xxx

Nine Inch Nails – The Hand That Feeds Lyrics 19 years ago
i think this song is about being good, being forced to do something and not questioning it. Trent's asking if they're ever gonna get up and do something for themsleves or if theyre just gonna stay down on their knees

Nine Inch Nails – Hurt Lyrics 19 years ago
this song works so well with the music it's sung to - just the simple melody. it makes me want to cry everytime, especially the bit where he gets louder. I think it's a warning in some ways - telling people not to get to close to him, pushing people away - "everyone goes away, in the end"
I think the chorus refers to him making himself into someone he doesnt want to be and losing someone special in the process by "letting them down".

i like the guy the song's about. ok, so he lied just to sleep with her but he kept his promise and stuck with her for life even though he hated every second of it, i mean - how many guys that have said the same things do THAT?

The Beatles – Blackbird Lyrics 19 years ago
I think this song is about someone who has nothing. John Lennon (i think it's him) is saying that he's giving them something broken. it's broken so if you or i had it, it would seem a bit rubbish because we're used to better things but to the person that has nothing it is amazing, what they've always wanted and means they can do what they've always wanted to do. Love the Beatles and wish they were still together - for most of them still alive even! XxX
