Can you FEEL the vibrations
FEEL them getting strange

When the 13th floor SHAKES

Kaiser Chiefs – Spanish Metal Lyrics 13 years ago
The lyrics need to be edited to say from the top of Tour Eiffel!

And since the others are all place names it should say from the Spanish Main to Yorkshire moors

Green Day – Viva la Gloria! Lyrics 15 years ago
Hey Gloria,
Are you standing close to the edge?
Lookout to the setting sun
The brink of your vision
Eternal youth is
***the landscape of a lie***

The cracks of my skin can prove
As the years will testify
Say your prayers and light a fire
We're going to start a war
Your slogan's a gun for hire
It's what we waited for

Hey Gloria,

This is why we're on the edge
The fight of our lives been drawn to
This undying love

Gloria, Viva La Gloria
You blast your name
In graffiti on the walls
***Falling in broken glass and***
Slashing through your spirit
I can hear it like a jilted crowd

Gloria, where are you Gloria?
You found a home
In all your scars and ammunition
You made your bed in salad days
***Amongst the ruins***
Ashes to ashes of our youth

She smashed her knuckles into winter
As Autumn's wind fades into black
She is the saint on all the sinners
The one that's fallen through the cracks
So don't put away your burning light

Gloria, where are you are Gloria?
Don't lose your faith
***To your lost naïveté***
Weather the storm and don't look
Back on last November
When your banners were burning down

Gloria, viva la Gloria
Send me your amnesty down
To the broken hearted
Bring us the season
That we always will remember
Don't let the bonfires go out

So Gloria,
***Send out your message of the light***
That shadows in the night.
Gloria, where's your undying love?
Tell me the story of your life

Green Day – Viva la Gloria! Lyrics 15 years ago
Wunderbar.

"Send out your message of the light that shadows in the night"
-> "Schikte deine Nachricht des Lichtes in die Schatten der Nacht"
--> "Send out your message of the light in the shadows of the night"

Die einzige auf dem ich nicht positiv war.
The only bit I wasn't sure about.

Green Day – Macy's Day Parade Lyrics 15 years ago
The difference between thieves and crooks is not totally clear but thinking along the song's lines in my opinion it's this:

A person who steals something he really needs (for himself or others) is technically a thief, whereas a person who rips people off selling them things they don't need is just a crook.

Morally you could argue that these thieves are better than those crooks, or you could use other examples to make the opposite argument depending where you stand.

Chad Kroeger – Hero Lyrics 15 years ago
I'm so high, I can hear heaven
I'm so high, I can hear heaven
Whoa, but heaven, no heaven don't hear me

And they say that hero could save us
I'm not going to stand here and wait
I hold onto the wings of the eagles
Watch as we all fly away

Someone told me, Love will all save us
But how can that be, look what Love gave us
A world full of killing and blood spilling,
That world never came

And they say that a hero could save us
I'm not going to stand here and wait
I hold onto the wings of the eagles
Watch as we all fly away
Ahh

Now that the world isn't ending,
It's love that I'm sending to you
It isn't the love of a hero
And that's why I fear it won't do

And they say that a hero could save us
I'm not going to stand here and wait
I hold onto the wings of the eagles
Watch as we all fly away

And they're watching us (watching us)
They're watching us (watching us)
As we all fly away
And they're watching us (watching us)
They're watching us (watching us)
As we all fly away
Yeah (yeah)
And they're watching us (watching us)
They're watching us (watching us)
As we all fly away
Whoa

Mumford & Sons – Little Lion Man Lyrics 15 years ago
Yes, to my mind it is clearly a father/son song but this has already been said earlier up.

Razorlight – To The Sea Lyrics 15 years ago
I think nobody commented because this song is exhausting. Not sure if I can add anything, but... the repetition of "The Sea" has its classical parallels to draw. I think the song is about a great longing to escape, together, and this not as easy as it sounds.

Razorlight – Los Angeles Waltz Lyrics 15 years ago
This song is amazing. The title seems cryptic at first but it really does sum up the song there is little else to be said. The guitar bit is excellent but I would agree the ending is outstanding - the best outro ever - and overwhelming.

Also quite interesting when you spell out the syllables there's a lot of symmetry, 4 by 4 by 4, and the rhyming is quite different.

It's hard to be absolutely sure but I think it actually goes:
"I hide your love" instead of "I hide, you love"
"You build me up" instead of "You feel, love"
"And love me still" instead of "And love you still"

The word is definitely zetas.
I think Fortunatas' explanation makes the most sense.

The Raconteurs – Steady, As She Goes Lyrics 19 years ago
This song advises you to settle down, because a single life is flawed, and a married life is necessary.
It also warns you that you will feel that you've lost something by giving into this. You lose your freedom and your potential.
To me, 'When you have completed what you thought you had to do' means all your pre-marital feats: study, travelling, career, wild parties... Once you feel you've done enough you can settle down (losing the ability to do these) and once you've been happily married a while you will lose the will to rebel, you will get stuck. This way you will also be at peace.
Obviously in life it makes a big difference whether or not you find the right person, but in this song I think it takes it as read that the girl that he finds is the best possible one.
