| Drake Bell – Makes Me Happy Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| Well, basically, Drake was involved in a major car accident not long before he wrote this, and he knocked out 6 teeth, a fractured neck, a broken jaw, and a deep cut across his chin, leaving a two-and-a-half inch scars. In an interveiw Drake said that it was scary being hooked up to tubes, fed only liquids and not knowing whether he would be ok, or if he would have a deformed face. And he didn't know if he'd be able to act or sing, or do anything that he does in normal routine everyday life again, or anything at all, so this song is about how happy he is that that can happen, and he can act, sing, write songs, play guitar, and just live normally basically. He's saying wake up and smell the roses because it could all be taken away like that ! It's about that. It's also about how he can do the things that make him happy. Also, the reason that this album, It's Only Time, with songs like Up Periscope, Fallen For You, and Do What You Want, are more bouncy than his first album, Telegraph is because of this also. | |
| Drake Bell – Hollywood Girl Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| It means that it's best to be realistic about it and keep your feet on the ground. | |
| Drake Bell – Hollywood Girl Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| It means that although Hollywood may seem to be a great place to live, and you can be famous and be in films, the truth is that it's far from that. Like when he says, "Hollywood Girl is lost again, all of her hopes left her stranded". It means that you can have your hopes of being famous, and having lots of money, but that sometimes that doesn't make a celebrity happy, that there's other more important things in life, and that you can hope to be big, but it can all go wrong in showbusiness. | |
| Drake Bell – I Know Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| The bit about being a fan of the band is to symbolise that it doesn't make you a star, that it's just clutching at straws, that it doesn't make you a celebrity. He may also be a fan I dunno. lol | |
| Drake Bell – I Know Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| Correction: i don't think he's actually a fan of the band, maybe not sure. Anyway, watch the video on YouTube, it'll make it more clearer. | |
| Drake Bell – I Know Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| Right, this song's meaning is that he's saying that one guy is going after the glamorous lifestyle, and all the money and girls, hence the line, "Just because, you're a fan, doesn't mean you've joined the band and found a way to make them think that you're a star silly girl". And the other, the artist, is not gonna sell out, he's gunna play the music he wants, write the music he wants not be fake, just be him, and not want to chase after the glamorous lifestyle and not having done anything to deserve it, except for being a fan of the band. It's the difference between the artist, and the fake. | |
