| Stars – Personal Lyrics | 17 years ago |

Firstly, what an absolutely beautiful and completely tragic song. The more I listen to it the more brilliant it becomes; the build up between single m and Caroline, the introduction of her nervousness and eagerness about the date to overcome her loss, single m's disregard to her loss by ignoring it and simply mentioning how the personal column can "be scary", the final verse that lulls you in and and then delivers the line that pushes the whole story down the cliff: "nothing to heavy". And to finish off, the ambiguous "is it you, or me?". For such a simple song, it's incredible how deep it goes; just incredible. Of all people here, I think Pocketmoonlight above has got the closest to the meaning of this song, although there's one small thing that I disagree with him and most of what has been written here: single m DEFINITELY went to the "St. Jude club at noon" (note: not the 'Ancient club' as on the lyrics page ;). It's one of the things that are central to the song. He went there, full of doubt and fear, and saw Caroline there. For a moment they made eye contact, before single m decided that he couldn't go though with it and left. That moment is the beauty of the song; that both their futures came down to one single moment that was decided by their pasts, and both are left wondering would could have been: "is it you, or me?". And I'm in the non-fat camp. As far as I'm concerned, Caroline could have been the most beautiful girl on the planet, and single m still wouldn't have stayed. It goes a lot deeper than simply appearances - Caroline may have been the one who admitted to being "heavy", but for single m, his past experiences have had an even heavier cost. |

| Just incredible. One of their best; up there with "Take me with you" and "One More Day" for that type of song. Very unconventional VAST, but then again the whole of Turquise & Crimson is different. Just as amazing and beautiful though. | |

| How can there be no comments on this song? It's just amazing, I love the intro... it's one of those VAST songs that make you think: "Of course they had to have one like this on here". Just an incredible, beautiful slow song. | |

| My Friend The Chocolate Cake – Sirens Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
I think the correct title of this song is "Here Come The Sirens". That aside, this has to be one of the most amazing, tranquil, mysterious and eerie songs I have ever heard, and one of my all time favorites. Coming from an Australian band, I feel this song tells the story of a long, sweltering summer's day; the kind of day where you can't move or leave the house or even think for the heat, the kind of day where the cicadas are droning in the background, and the world disappears into a shimmering mirage on the horizon. The "sirens" are the sirens of fire-engines somewhere off in the distance (which are also the "trucks outside" his door), while the singer looks up into the "deadly" night sky, all aglow as the fires reflecting off the smoke, "like ash Wednesday" (one of the worst fires in Australia's history). Absolutely spectacular and haunting song. |

This has to be one of my favourite songs of all time. It is such a swirling, mysterious, majestic, sad but strangely uplifting song. I agree completely with what someone else wrote above: it's the perfect song to listen to at night, staring up into the night sky and taking in the stars... |
