Queen – You're My Best Friend Lyrics 19 years ago
This reminds me of me and my best friend, actually. I fell in love with him, but he turned out to be gay. It doesn't matter though, cause we still love each other very much. To this day, I consider him the best person that's ever happened to me. Thank you, Queen!

Nirvana – Jesus Doesn't Want Me for a Sunbeam Lyrics 19 years ago
let me start off by saying this is perhaps the greatest cover ever achieved. =]

as for the meaning, i'd definitely say it's about religion. he's asking the people around him to stop asking him to believe in something he doesn't believe exists. i.e., religion. but that's just me.

Yeah Yeah Yeahs – Y Control Lyrics 19 years ago
"Y Control" probably refers to the power a guy has over her. (the y chromosome theory) She remembers the way she used to be, and misses it because she thinks she was better off that way. When she entered a relationship, she started changing. The guy manipulated her, and then left her after the damage was done.
"I wish I could buy back
the woman you stole"

Fiona Apple – Not About Love Lyrics 19 years ago
She misses the ache of being in love. With love, comes a lot of hurt. Even though she knows this, she still wants it.

"I miss that stupid ache"

Either that, or she really DOESN'T want it, and she's cynical, and thinks the concept of love only hurts people who are in it. This is because of something that occurred in her past, or the feeling of an old flame still getting the satisfaction of knowing he hurt her.

"And it doesn't seem fair
That your wicked words should work
In holding me down"

"This is not about love!
'Cause I am not in love
In fact I can't stop falling out"

Against Me! – Tonight We're Gonna Give It 35% Lyrics 19 years ago
It's got me
on my knees in a bathroom, praying to a god that I
don't even believe in, "Dear Jesus... are you listening?"
If this is the one chance that really matters, don't let
me fuck this up. If you had told me about all this when
I was fifteen, I never would have believed it.

^ my personal favorite part. i think this song is about how the future isn't set in stone, because of that last line, and also because of "I can't believe how naive I was to think things could ever be so simple". He's trying to say that as you get older, you start realizing that the future is constantly changing, and assuming anything is a bad idea. Or at least, that's what I got out of it.

The meaning of the song is straightforward, of course. But it's beautiful. Pure poetry right here, folks.

Jack Johnson – No Other Way Lyrics 19 years ago
To me, this song is about insomnia. He's worried too much about the things that he's said, or the things that have been said by another person. It's not just himself that he's worrying about, and he's not the only one losing sleep. He really wants to stop worrying.
"when your mind is a mess
so is mine
i can't sleep
cause it hurts when i think
my thoughts aren't at peace
with the plans that we make
chances we take
they're not yours and not mine
there's waves that can break
all the words that we said
and the words that we mean
words can fall short
can't see the unseen"
