| Sonic Youth – In The Kingdom #19 Lyrics

I think the way this song is laid out is possibly a tribute to The Velvet Underground and their song The Gift. The Gift has got a sort of bluesy rock song but instead of lyrics, John Cale just recites a short story. Lee is kindof reciting this rather than singing it. They also mention White Light and The Gift is on the V.U album White Light/White Heat. Awesome song on an awesome LP by an awesome band. |

I think this song is about a relationship where one person is really needy and clings to the other person, like if he goes out, she will extinguish. |

The start is great. The middle section is disturbing. It makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. Especially when the girl with the really flat tone says: "Please Help Me. Im Lost." over and over, but when the tune kicks in again and then the acoustic guitar comes in and its a wonderful moment. |

The simplicity of the piano and the odd acoustic guitar is beautiful and the strange distant sounding voice sounds like a memory. Its a wonderful song. The perfect portrayal of being in love, but it has a strange melancholic sheen to it. Thats what gives it a slight edge and all in all, its head and shoulders above other songs about relationships. |

Why would anyone listen to Eminem? We're talking about someone who calls their songs things like "Suck My Dick". Subtlety clearly isnt his speciality. Play is a classic record and Honey is one of the best songs on it. Moby has made some of the best electronic records ever. |

Lullaby is a really haunting song. I do think that Robert Smith is one of the best lyricists ever. They could mean so much. I am sort of tilted towards the child molestation theory, but hey, if Robert Smith says its about a dream he had, then I guess its true |
