Joel Plaskett – Beyond, Beyond, Beyond Lyrics
| 14 years ago

To me, the song is about leaving home and coming back to find that everything's changed except the scenery. You can come home, see your same old friends, go to the same places you used to and do the same things, yet nothing's the same. I know that's probably not what the song is REALLY about, but that's what it means to me.
On a more general note: I absolutely LOVE the imagery created by the closing line. I about shat myself the first time I heard it. The whole final verse is perfection. |

Joel Plaskett – Nina and Albert Lyrics

Joel's anecdote for this song when he played it live was that as he was driving across the states to go record La De Da, a storm hit and he had to spend the night in a cheap hotel with paper thin walls. He heard the woman in the room next to him on the phone with her boyfriend, trying to convince him that she wasn't cheating on him. He gave them names (Nina and Albert) and wrote this song about them.
Mind you, the story was much more interesting when Joel told it because, well, he's Joel Plaskett. |

I have the CD and in the booklet it's "Wise up" and it's knew not know, just to clear things up.
I love this song, but I think the meaning's fairly obvious so I"ll leave it at that. |
