| Björk – It's Not Up To You Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
I think the meaning of this song is pretty obvious. "I wake up And the day feels Broken I tilt my head I'm trying to get an angle 'Cause the evening I've always longed for It could still happen How do I master The perfect day Six glasses of water Seven phonecalls If you leave it alone It might just happen Anyway" In the beginning, she calls somebody, because she wants to have the evening she's always longed for, a date perhaps? She calls and calls, but can't get a date, so in the end she just gives up and hopes it will come by itself. "It's not up to you Oh it never really was" etc. This means that you can't decide yourself whats going to happen, probably referring to the aforementioned date. "If you wake up And the day feels Ah broken Just lean into the crack (Just lean into the crack) And it will tremble Ever so nicely Notice How it sparkles Down there" This verse should be self-explainatory, but if it isn't, I'll tell you: it's about masturbation, so basically she masturbates instead of having sex that evening (pobably). "I can decide What I give But it's not up to me What I get given Unthinkable surprises About to happen But what they are" Ties in with the refrain; it's not up to you what happens to you, I think this refers to sex: You can't just decide if you want to have sex, because the other person has to want it, too. The last two lines are probably about masturbation again, meaning that she is about to climax. "There's too much Clinging To peak There's too much Pressure" This probably means that she can't reach orgasm because there's too much pressure. I don't really knowhow this ties in with the rest of the song, though. |

| Rammstein – Feuer Frei! Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| OLtos, "-lich" at the end of a word in German doesn't mean the same as "-ly" at the end of a word in English. "lich" indicates an adjective, and "ly" indicates an afverb. So "Gefährlich" means dangerous and not dangerously. | |

Great interpretation, Sargtlin! Actually, when you first listen to the song, it just sounds like some random words ending in "-los", but actually, the lyrics are genius! I also like the acoustic guitar on this song. |

I think paper bag's explaination sounds right. Anyway, it's a really good song. |
