| Beirut – Guyamas Sonora Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
Guyamas may be an intentional misspelling on the part of the writer... there is a town in Mexico named Guaymas in the "state" of Sonora. There is apparently a carnival there every year. |

When i first actually listened to the lyrics, I superimposed my sexuality over this music. Also, i was thinking of any analogy for the AIDS pandemic... |

| Regina Spektor – Chemo Limo Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
when she says that the dream tells her that "you'll be okay anyway".. it doesn't necessarily mean she'll be healthy. the dream tells her that even if she is really too sick, she will be able to look beyond the sickness and live what life she has left... she will be ok. |

regina's songs are rarely if ever autobiographical. I can identify with this song a lot. I know personally the feeling of being so caught up with everything I have to do for school and work and society that I don't take time to notice the simple things. The days just slip right by without me even noticing. I can identify even more if its a "queer" song. |

OK. I don't know how many of you have read Dante's Inferno... but the first verse: it feels a little worse and when we drove our hearse right through that screaming crowd while laughing up a storm until we were just bone until it got so warm that none of us could sleep then all the styrofoam began to melt away we tried to find some worms to aid in the decay but none of them were home inside their catacomb a million ancient bees began to sting our knees This is definitely an allusion to the INferno, when Dante and Virgil are at the gates of hell... look it up. These souls were neither good nor evil, and so are refused from both heaven and hell. Think about the implications of this for the songwriter. ;) |
