| Flyleaf – Red Sam Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
The very first time I heard this song, my first impression was "eww, does it sound so discordant?" Then she started singing, and I listened to the words, and repeated the song, and repeated it again, and repeated it again, and then I figured it out. The initial discord (the out-of-tune sound the guitars have at the beginning) is incorperated into the meaning of the song. The song begins in discord because her life was in discord, but slowly grows more confident and clear as it progresses, until eventually she is proclaiming "And I worship" like it's a battlecry. Overall, one of my favorite songs. |

| Chevelle – Point #1 Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
"We need healing aloe plants Your soothing hands run down my back" Aloe is most often used to treat burns, especially on the neck, shoulders, and back. This line could be attributed as a metaphore for healing spiritual burns. The thing about most of Chevelle's songs is that each line is like an unfinished sentance, just enough to convey a feeling without revealing the meaning. |

| AFI – 37mm Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
I just want to say this: the song title is in NO WAY a gun reference. There is a big difference between the caliber scale and mm scale for guns. When you see a gun size labled ".45" that would be a 45 caliber, which in metric is about the same size as a 9mm. The last time anybody used 37mm guns was in WWII, the U.S. had an anti-tank gun that was 37mm and the Russians had an anti-aircraft gun that was also 37mm. Although a camera lens seems more likely, the common camera lens is only 35mm, which seems to suggest that the number 37 has a special meaning, while simultaniously conjouring the "camera lens" connotation. |
