| Guided by Voices – Things I Will Keep Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
The song is about what you dream about. I think that the line is "Coded ancient decrees" unlock the chimers and strike the timers in my sleep which could be a reference to human nature which is shaped in our species past. |

| Nujabes – Highs 2 Lows Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
Such a quality and beautiful rhyme. It blows my mind that CYNE aren't better known. I love how big the scope of this rhyme is. How do I live correctly? Is God up there? And it's so damned smooth. |

| Andrew Bird – Scythian Empire Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
And lets not forget that even if Bird is merely suggesting a point rather than outright saying it, that is an additional level of artistry for him to work with. He establishes a tension between the almost serene tone of the song and the substance of the lyrics. It seems to me that a lot would have been lost had he written, "Man, even though we're alive today and we are an extremely powerful nation, one day we'll all be dead and our empire will have gone to dust. Kinda like the Scythians." Don't punish him for being an artist. Having said that, I adore this song with my heart and mind. For me, the defining line of this song is, "Now their offering views of exiting empire. Such breathtaking views of Scythian empires." |

| The Magnetic Fields – Please Stop Dancing Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| The bass hook in this song is excellent. All together a catchy song. The meaning is simple. Two people were in love and they ache for each other after they've split. Basically, them trying to forget a person who persists to stay with them in their heart and soul. | |
| Sparta – From Now To Never Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
This song comes as really political in nature. Push your views. Occupied stations are the current leadership. Burning wells are the oil wells in Iraq and Kuwait that have been on fire since the gulf war. Tired of fiction? The lies that the government has been telling us since President Bush has been in Office. This song is about looking at the world and being dissatisfied. It says that we all have the opportunity to change the world and we better take that opportunity because we only live once. |
