Rihanna – Fire Bomb Lyrics 14 years ago
I think... I think this is about a woman scorned that decided to commit revenge by killing herself and the person who wronged her because she is so tired.

Gunfire left a hole in the tank,losing gasoline
(she wants fuel to leak so that when she ignites it it will explode)
Fire is on my trail, and hes after me
Hope they don't get here
Before I get where I'm going,
I gotta get where I'm going
Take off my mask to breathe

(she wants emergency services to arrive at the scene when she is dead already because she is so tired of life and cant see another way out)

You could've been a part of a masterpiece
Fluid in the brakes was the last to leak
(she has also damaged the brakes so they wont work when the driver tries to stop the car)

That's the thing
Where I'm going I don't need my breaks
Cant wait to see your face when your front windows break
And I come crashing through

(and the accident will be the driver running over Rihanna and her smashing through the windscreen and they both die in the fire caused by leaking fuel)


And the rest of the song basically goes through the scene of the accident and how Rihanna would find the scene beautiful because it would be the end of her suffering and also she's putting the blame on her man for making her do it! And she describes how lovely their lives were to the outside world yet between the two everything was too much and they couldnt handle it.

I love this song !

Keane – Better Than This Lyrics 15 years ago
This song is not entirely about setting your goals high, it definitely seems like that on the surface but I think this song is written from a view of "disenchantment with how we view ourselves and forget who we really are as well as disenchanment with celebrity and riches".
its ironic in that the message to "set your goals high" is there but there is also a "be realistic about your goals and don't live your life wishing for the impossible and forget your true self because YOU WILL be disappointed" - which is the case with many of us today....wanting to live like celebrities and wishing for eternal wealth..etc


"Is this what you meant?
Is this what you dreamed of?
When you were making your plans,
Shaking the dirt off?
Do you feel like you and I belong?
(oh ah oh)
Just keep your eyes on the road and nothing can go wrong"

A relationship obviously is going wrong. the other party had hoped for the best relationship ever and now that reality hit the fan, the cant face it but still live like everything is okay.

"I've been checking my sums
Oh where did the time go?
Holding my photograph up to the window
Through the paper and refracted sun
(oh ah oh)
I can see all the things I wish that I'd done"

again...time has gone by and the person comes to realise that they have lived a lie all along and didn't really do the good things they wanted to do.

"You can hang your hopes on the medicine
You can put your faith in the phone-in
You can tell yourself you doing your best
You can do so much better than this"

reference to how we always turn to things like medicine and phone ins (possibly some money winning TV phone in stuff ??? ) to sort our problems out instead of sorting them out our problems and being realistic about it!


"Get a grip on yourself
Get a grip on yourself
Could have been something, but you're too late
And you weren't invited anyway

'Cause the photographs show the wrong man
'Cause there is no soap star holding your hand
You don't see yourself in the freeze frame
Must be someone else using your name"

wished for a life in the lights and now alas, life has passed by and there hasnt been that BIG break yet.....there never was going to be one right from the word go!

"And everyone will be the same
And everyone will glow
And everywhere, you'll see your name
In every shop window

It's better than this
You can do so much better than this"

last verse I interpret it as "if everyone wanted to be celebrity, rich and famous...then everyone would be the same, everyone would glow, rich and famous" but because of variety how we are all unique in our own good and equally special ways, life is better than what we see on telly, in the magazines etc!

So lets have better hopes and aspirations!


(thats my interpretation!)

Passion Pit – Sleepyhead Lyrics 15 years ago
am I the only one who thinks first verse is about sex? hehe...surely it cant be far fetched an interpretation? They had a passionate night and the singer is recounting? and then second verse is kinda like he is praising the object of her desire?

just an interpretation after 2 listens so might need a week or two more for the song's meaning to mature i guess hehe

Beyoncé – Smash Into You Lyrics 15 years ago
this is a beautiful song. Such a wonderful song to confess your love for someone!

personally my own interpretation of this song is of someone walking down the aisle towards their other half on their wedding day and feeling like they just want to run and smash into them and live for the rest of their lives together !

Elbow – Starlings Lyrics 15 years ago
I agree with Davel62, this man is just in love but he has a few insecurities (his age, if the young girl is ready for a love as strong as he is willing to offer i.e marriage) but still he cant help but be besotted with the young girl and he will do anything to be around her and listen to her speak about what she would like to do with her life (last verse) making him fall in love with her even more by the minute.

Lovely Song...now if only my man would have opened up to me like this...yes he was older than me, I was younger

Rufus Wainwright – The Consort Lyrics 15 years ago
someone declaring their love for their other half. despite everything that may come to them, they will conquer and be together forever happily.
the person is obviously in love but kind of insecure if their lover will stay with them.

Röyksopp – What Else Is There? Lyrics 16 years ago
Like Arcrut I think its about a bitter break up which left the person fighting with their conscience on the worst type of revenge as she feels there's not much left to her life hence - "What Else Is There?"

The first lines show her in the relationship that became sour, where she was then made to feel ignored and alone!
"It was me on that road, but you couldn't see me
Too many lights out, but nowhere near here"

She held on, hoping that he'd finally realise how much she loved him but the inevitable happened...a bitter breakup (explosions)
"It was me on that road, still you couldn't see me
And then flash lights and explosions"

Now in the present tense, she is still bitter, probably because the man has moved on and they go through life separately.
"Roads and getting nearer, we cover distance, but not together"

Her bitterness has caused her to work up a dangerous self belief "I am the storm and I am the wonder" , that gives her the urge to revenge, feeling that its something she's allowed to, after all she went through in the relationship
..."the flashlights, nightmares and sudden explosion"

She cant see any other way out, she has to act now or live life knowing that her loved one is with someone else.
"I don't know what more to ask for I was given just one wish"

Her dream /secretly planned act of revenge:
"It's about you and the sun, [at dawn/ before sunrise]
A morning run [her Ex alone on the morning run at dawn]
The story of my maker,
What I have and what I ache for [her feeling of loss of love]

I've got a golden ear [she listening carefully, waiting for him]
I cut and I spear [she stabs him frantically]
But what else is there? [she feels her life's empty after he left]

As the song ends, she shows that it is still a secret/dream and as dark as it might be, everyone has one!

.....suppose thats the beauty of art, everyone has their own view of the same thing, only the artist knows the true meaning!"

Röyksopp – Only This Moment Lyrics 16 years ago
hmmmmm....very great song indeed! I love it, whenever I listen to it, some emotions I try to stifle just fit into place!

Personally when I listen to this song I feel there's 2 people who met briefly by chance and werent really supposed to fall in love but everything made so much sense when they connected

They are then faced with the decision of either going on with their newfound chemistry and confronting everything else around them that might object to their being together!
The boy is trying to convince himself its just infatuation and nothing more (maybe because he's scared of falling in love and being devoted), but more and more he cant fight the clarity in his mind that its something real and true.

Oh well...thats wat songs are for hey, u have your personal take on them, this one is mine lol!

Klaxons – Golden Skans Lyrics 17 years ago
The song for me talks about someone who is inspired by something (probably the dream of golden skans) and decides to depart from all of society's norms (set sail from sense bring all her young - the young of sense so sense will never be there again? ) because they feel and know they have it in them to turn all their plans into reality!

Thats my take on it. Would like to hear what y'all think. this is a wonderful song, the best song of the first quarter of 2007 for me! good album too!
