Katie Melua – Just Like Heaven Lyrics 15 years ago
This is a great interpretation of the Cure's song, its fresh, its soothing and her voice doesn't have to fight over the other instruments like The Cure's version. I have heard both versions, but it wasn't until I heard Katie's that I notice how great the lyrics are. Her voice brings the intimate meaning of what Smith's was trying to say when he wrote it.

The Maccabees – No Kind Words Lyrics 16 years ago
I'm sorry but i don't think that what he is saying is

If you've got no kind words to say
You should say nothing more at all

But instead

If you've got no kind words to say
You should say nothing MORTAL


The singer has a friend that is messing around with somebody he doesn't care for, tempting disaster

Dear friend of mine is testing his body
Tempting disaster
Testing water with another’s daughter

He doesn't want to get involve, and even though it is physically showing his rejection for their union, and he defends himself on it

Dear friend of mine, my ear is bending
I'm not helping
I'm not telling
I'm not solving
I’m not saying you’re pretending

Here is where it can get tricky, there might be a deep scar on the friend that he doesn't care about the consequences, and even though he is united with somebody, he is still alone

Dear friend of mine is helpless without helping
Healed without scab or scar
New union found him alone

Here is the singer excuses to not get involve, he doesn't want to damage his friendship and carry that weight with him, let it be is his resolution. So when he is saying You Should Say Nothing Mortal, he is talking to himself.

If you’ve got no kind words to say
Carry no weight
Let the weight carry you


Amazing song! It was fun analyzing it, but that's what my interpretation of it :-)

The Cardigans – Feathers and Down Lyrics 17 years ago
Now you're drowning me

with your talk of 4-leaf clovers
you turn to rocks and omen
to beat the ambient harm
that is bruising your karma

It means that the guy is talking too much about luck and good fortune, he is turning to charms and good luck objects to fix his bad karma and everything that does him harm.

The idea is that he is blaming other things for his own mistakes, and this is drowning her, making her hopeless because he doesn't' see that its his doing that is making bad things happen to him

An Horse – Horizons Lyrics 17 years ago
For my understanding, the song is about a brake up, and how she is seeing calm sees after the wave has come and left.

"A rooftop crow's nest in a sea swell
Oh, yes, I'm doing so well"

The frighten notion of being something so small almost engulfed on a force of nature, but she is doing fine, and she will overcome it because she sees beyond it. I might be wrong but that's what I got from it

Sia – Day Too Soon Lyrics 17 years ago
Amazing song, one of the best song in Some people have real Problems' album.

I believe that this person is a bit jaded about love, but she has found this guy, I don't think its a old flame, I think its a new one, she "ran away from good" every time she found it since she was waiting for the one she wanted, and this guy came, "not a day too soon". She will be selfless and give everything to this guy cause she knows this is the one she was waiting for.

I enjoy the way she goes up in volume, like a way of celebration. A song that you can sing your heart out while driving!

Jason Mraz – A Beautiful Mess Lyrics 17 years ago
This is a great song from his new EP, the lyrics I found online didn't do justice to the lyrics so I decided to write it down myself, I really can't wait for the full CD to come out

Jason Mraz – If It Kills Me Lyrics 17 years ago
Meaning? pretty straight forward, he likes a girl that has a boyfriend and every time he tries to come up to her in more ways than friends, he holds back and looses the chance again

"But I never said a word I guess I'm gonna miss my chance again"

This is an amazing EP and if the other two are just like this one, I will really enjoy listening to them. There is something great on Mraz acoustic performances and he is showing this on these EP's
