| Oh, and loserface68 is right, it is "Go on, be your own star". Not "be a rock star". | |
| Blue October – What If We Could Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
This song describes my relationship with my boyfriend almost perfectly. Ever since the day we met circumstances have not been on our side, in so many unfortunate ways. And I care about him so much but sometimes I wonder how much he cares about me... He's a thousand miles away but if I were able to I'd drop everything and meet him in a heartbeat. And it makes me wonder if he'd do the same, would he meet me, too? The song is about two people who probably just met and felt a deep connection ("It's like a last chance for a first dance") but due to circumstances beyond their control, they can't get together. It's one of those things that you feel could really be something special if you could just get a chance to make it something. So this guy is desperate to meet with this girl and wonders, if it were somehow possible to drop everything and meet somewhere, would she meet him, too? |

| Chris Daughtry – Home Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| I'm not a big fan of this song or of any of Daughtry's songs for that matter. But I think it's about God. I think he's strayed from his faith and now he's making the decision to go back to God, "I'm going home to the place where I belong". And "you always seem to give me another try" refers to the forgiving nature of God, no matter how often you mess up, He always gives you another try. And he doesn't really like where he is in life, the people he hangs out with, the places he goes, maybe bars and stuff, he doesn't regret it but he wants to change it. I think it's possible it might be about suicide and home is referring to Heaven. And it's also entirely possible it's about our men in uniform. But that's my take on it. | |
| KT Tunstall – Black Horse and the Cherry Tree Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
Ok, I don't particularly this song, or her other song that plays on the radio, and I never really understood the meaning to either one, but I was talking to a friend of mine, and it could be wrong, but this is how she interpreted the song. She said that KT Tunstall is gay and this song is about her choice to embrace that lifestyle. The black horse represents a man and the cherry tree represents a woman. The man wants her ("hey little lady won't you marry me"), but she listens to her heart ("my heart knows me better than I know myself"), and chooses the cherry tree. But because of this choice, she's now forsaken by people. I don't know anything about KT, I don't know her sexual orientation, or anything, but it sounded like a logical interpretation, so I figured I'd present it as an option. |

| Stone Sour – Through Glass Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
I've listened to this song several times, trying to figure out what it means and this is what I've come up with. You should also watch the video, it'll help things make sense. Okay, I picture someone walking down the street and they stop in front of a store and there's a display case sort of thing, you know, a window with mannequins all dressed up and everything, and you look inside. The person singing the song is INSIDE the store, he's one of the mannequins. He's pretty much saying that you're on the outside, looking in, and you want what you see because everything looks perfect. But he's telling you that it may look good, but it's really all fake. I think the small picture is about how fake Hollywood is, the mannequins being the actors/actresses that we idolize, but aren't who we really think they are. But the big picture is just a more generalized version of the same idea, no one is content with who they are, "the grass is always greener on the other side", everybody wants what somebody else has, but it's never what it seems. I take it as advice to just be content with who you are because everything else is deceiving. In the video, you see a Hollywood scene, with a bunch of beautiful people and expensive stuff and as the song plays, the scene is gradually stripped of the things that we define as "Hollywood", the money and the 'beauty', etc. and in the end, it's really just an ugly desert that had Hollywood backdrops covering the truth. And it is "epidemic of the mannequins", not "never dare make up a mannequin" or whatever. Anyway, that's what I gathered from the song. |
