Róisín Murphy – Movie Star Lyrics 14 years ago
Róisín said in an interview that the song is about someone who wants to be famous and he/her discovers that he/her may have to do anything to be famous. It's not about someone in particular, just about the world we living in.

"I don't even care. It's just a stupid song, anyway" She said.

Róisín Murphy – Ramalama (Bang Bang) Lyrics 14 years ago
It's funny that some people comes up with so complicated theories about this song. It's just what LDux said: It's about creating music. The connection between the artist and his/her art.

"Oh the body swayed to music
Oh the lightning glance"

That part is a quote from a poem called "Among School Children" by William Butler Yeats, a well known Irish poet:

"O body swayed to music, O brightening glance
How can we know the dancer from the dance?"

Both, the song and the poem, are about the relation between the artist and art and also about the power of art to transfigure mortality.
