| Ida Maria – Better When You're Naked Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
Yeah, I totally agree with FoShizzle- it just seems to be about being like uber-nervous and awkward because the guy you're talking to is like ridiculous hott. So you just can't help but think: you know, why bother with this horrible bit... let's get to the good bit. The bit that makes everyone happy. ^_^ I love it because it's not heavy or deep and yet it's so real and such a normal emotion, and almost everyone has felt that way. Damn catchy song >_< |

| Björk – Enjoy Lyrics | 17 years ago |

For me, this song is about being in a situation that though you think it should be enough. It really isn't. You can't help but want more. So you know lines like "I wish: this be enough." It's all about wanting to be satisifed by what you have but the world around you and the temptations that you face are just too much. You can almost feel yourself giving in to them: "I wish I'd only look, and didn't have to touch."- That enticement is just too much, and though she knows it is wrong, and could be a betrayal of the very comfortable life she has now, she wants to do it. And you really feel throughout the entire song just how much she wants to do it, how strong her desire is. I think it's one of those amazing songs that can be about something so specific like an affair or something: you know, you are really happy and comfortable in your relationship, but you just want more. You can feel yourself getting too big for this, and needing to break free from it. And the temptations around you are so powerful. But you can't help but feel guilty, because you know what you have if so good- but it's almost like the safety of it, is stifling. At the same time, it can also be about something like life: and the temptations you face. How you need to break free, and it's frightening, but also the urge is just so strong. I love this song, it's one of my personal favourites... ^_^ |

| Sia – Breathe Me Lyrics | 17 years ago |

Oh GOD, I just discovered this song... and it is so amazing. I didn't necessarily see it as a real specific issue or anything (I think that sort of general quality is kind of what makes it so deep- anyone can take something away from it). I kind of think the "breathe me" aspect is like wanting someone to need you to be alive and love you- like them breathing you sustains them, whilst sustaining you. So because of that, I kind of saw it as maybe a co-dependent kind of relationship with someone: be that another person, drugs, anorexia, self-harm. I just see it as knowing you need that thing to exist, and wanting it to be mutual. I think that the "be my friend" bit really furthers that because it's like pleading with that other thing not to hurt you, or make the pain worse. I think it can be as sort of general as a destructive relationship "I have been here many times before"- you know, someone you keep going back to, despite how much they hurt you or you hurt them. But I like the fact that it could be any kind of destructive habit. Thank you for the comments, you've really made think!! >_ |

| Tegan and Sara – Walking with a Ghost Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
I thought it was like when you break up with someone (whether that be from a romantic relationship or just friends- or even siblings) and you kind of still have their essence and the little things you used to do together and the inside jokes and the everything else kinda stuck with you, and all of that combined makes a kind of ghost of that person. You know, it's not really them... but they are still kind of there, having this impact on your life. So you're still "walking" with them... walking around with those memories and that part of yourself that was slightly different when you're with them. That's just me though, I am probably completely wrong =P |

| Placebo – My Sweet Prince Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| I assumed that the song was about like a relationship first of all. And then I really listened to the lyrics once, when I was really down, and understood them on a totally different level. The whole "Me and the dragon" line, allowed me to understand the drug references and kind of unlock the ambiguous lyrics... amazing song. | |
