| Gym Class Heroes – Cupid's Chokehold Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
I reckon this song is about looking past all the big obvious things that any player knows will score points and instead looking at the small things in life that often get overlooked. It's not saying that just having a ringtone is love, or that just cooking is love, it's saying that when you combine all the small thoughtful things that someone does for you they aren't so small anymore and they mean more than all that stereotypical romantic stuff. |

| Uncle Kracker – Follow Me Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
This song is amazing in the way it can be just about drugs or just about an affair. For those of you who are saying it isn't one or the other you just have a different perspective. FOR EXAMPLE: I'm not worried 'bout the ring you wear Cause as long as no one knows Then nobody can care You're feelin' guilty And I'm well aware But you don't look ashamed And baby I'm not scared AFFAIR: Obviously the chick is married/enganged whatever and she's starting to feel guilty. Kracker reassures her that "what you don't know can't hurt you" and that he's not scared about anyone finding out. DRUGS: Drugs don't care if you're married, high-class, poor whatever. As long as nobody knows about the drugs then nobody cares. Feeling guilty is a reference to her knowing it's illegal. She's not ashamed because it's an escape from whatever and helps her sleep at night. It's all about perspective. :] |

| Bleed the Dream – Legends Die Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
Throwing stones could be a reference to "If you live in a glass house you shouldn't throw stones." And it seems to me that someone is dying and they've built themselves up to be legends hence the line "And I could never tell you the things you want to hear" |

| Cold Chisel – Khe Sanh Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
This song is one of the most beautiful songs to come out of Australia. My Uncle fought in Vietnam and it brings tears to his eyes when ever he hears it. He disagrees with all of you though, it's not about hookers and drugs. It's not about how Australian's should never of been in the war. “I left my heart to the sappers round Khe Sanh” These guys had to find mines buried in the ground. He left his heart with them because they’re doing a horrendous job. “And it's only other vets could understand” No matter what stories we hear, or how many movies we watch, the experience is theirs alone. “How there were no V-day heroes in 1973” Back then the troops that went to Vietnam were treated really badly. Australian’s didn’t believe in the war and they didn’t see any point for our soldiers to be there. It didn’t matter to them that the men had no choice, one lady even spat on my uncle when he got back and called him filthy. “And their legs were often open But their minds were always closed” Not about hookers but the fact that they were so unwilling to accept that these guys had no choice but to go over and fight. “Or the growing need for speed and novocaine” This line doesn’t make the song about drugs. It just reinforces the message of how horrific it was and how there were limited means of escaping those horrors. He’s been back to Vietnam, and as much as he hates the place he’s going back again. It was such a major part of his life, and when he got back he was treated badly, as were most Vets. This song means so much more to them than it can ever mean to any of us. But it’s still beautiful and insightful. |
