there was an undeniable robot craze in the 80s in pop music and this song's good enough to stand with the best, like mr roboto and sigue sigue sputnick. |

| Nosferatu – Abominations (Assylum Mix) Lyrics
| 17 years ago
|
|
this song makes me think of a freshly dead man trying to figure out why he cant move on to the other side, but instead, leaves his grave at night. "six feet below just isnt a fix" or it could be about someone witnessing a zombie-like person, like a revenant. |

when i was a teenager i was obsessed with vampire stories. so natrally, when i heard this song, i cooked up a daydream about a vampire looking after a young girl. another pack of rouge vampires kidknapped her and now its "a question of time" if he can stop them from turning her. after all he "knows his kind, what goes on in thier minds" lol |

| Depeche Mode – Sister Of Night Lyrics
| 17 years ago
|
its definitly about a female vampire who the speaker is not only watching but wants her to turn him or at least just feed off his blood. "Calling you through flesh that burns Breaking down your will To move in for the kill' Calling you through flesh that burns
Breaking down your will
To move in for the kill
When the hunger descends
And your body's a fire
An inferno that never ends
these lines say it all |

i also like how the sad core keyboard licks at the end of the song illustrate the sullenness he feels about the pollution, you can almost imagine pictures of torn down forrests and littered beaches |

youd expect this song would be gloomy by its title, but then its perky and upbeat instead. DM has thier goth side, but they are also pretty wacky too, and thats what makes them such a great universal band |

i think its about a gothic party. depeche mode got pretty goth in the mid 80s. cant you imagine a living room full of men and women dressed heel to toe in black, having conversation, and toasting to each other? it always inspired that nice little daydream with me when i hear it. |

lol, love this tune. turns out i was wrong about this song, i had thought it was about bible-thumping christians going door to door drinking the blood and eating the flesh of thier neighbors because they misinterpreted the bible again. hence, the army of jesus is the bible thumpers |

this song makes me think of a skeptic who falls for a hottie whos a tarot card reader or a gypsy or a parlor magician. he admits she can do magic cause she "magicly makes him feel so good"....awww isnt that sweet. Ive always liked america. the band is american by right, but they grew up in england because thier air force dads were stationed there. ive been in the air force for about 9 years now, so i thought that was way cool when i learned that fact |

this song is so cheesy but so cool. the video is awesome, a teenage kid is getting yelled at by his dad, who yells "youll never amount to anything" the kid, crying, slams his bedroom door, and puts on his headphones and the song starts to play. he then falls asleep and dreams that the nelson twins come take him to a cave where an indian chief is sitting at a fire and he teleports them all to the nelson concert. its a pretty sweet video. you can check out just about any 80s vid you can think of by going to www.youtube.com |

this song always puts me in a good mood. in fact every song on the heartbeat city CD is awesome, and this is track 2 on that CD. the cars have a period where they sound more classic rock and another where they sound more new wave. if you like new wave this is the album to have! |

could it be this song is about a guy whos girlfriend is having a hard time having an orgasm? but maybe the now the speaker has learned a new technique and now he says "i know tonight... she comes"
think about this line "she tells me its easy...when you do it right" |

this is an awesome synth tune, ric ocasek reminds me of the cure's robert smith sometimes. this song, to me tells the story of girl named jackie with whom the speaker had a romantic relationship until she left him one day. then when she returns wanting to re-kindle things, the speaker is simultaneously happy shes back, but hurt that she left him "i missed you so badly...when you jumped the scene" |
