| Madonna – Miles Away Lyrics

|
It’s about how long distance relationships sometimes work out the relationship becomes more difficult when the partners are up close and personal.People tend to miss each other’s company and long to be together when they are apart, but when they are together, the nitty gritties of daily lives and the tendency to take each other throw a spanner in the works. I think the song is about absence making the heart fonder |

| Evanescence – Bring Me To Life Lyrics

|
The Christian allusions to being born again are all pitching to a Christian dominated fan base, Evanescence having positioned itself as a Gospel singing Christian group. Subsequently, they denied any such intention or purport. Artists and bands will go to any length to achieve commercial success |

Endless cycle of poverty, unemployment and a life of crime and violence. The affluent and privileged should have a sense of social responsibility and not turn their heads and walk the other way |

I think it’s too early in the relationship for the man to understand the object of his affection and he should be resilient and be open with the person to understand what that person needs to find fulfilment in the relationship |

| Donna Summer – On The Radio Lyrics
| 4 years ago
|
|
To me this song is redolent of the romances between serving defence personnel and the special someone they had left behind. The radio was the exciting new medium to reach out to people and there were programs for the boys in uniform to request songs and leave messages for their girlfriends to be announced on the radio |

The song has a very haunting tune and the lirics suggest a couple that met on a remote island because of their differences in perspective. Love this song and the entire “Year of life Cat album |

| Chris Rea – You Must Be Evil Lyrics

I think the song is about the bad effects of the media on impressionable young people, making them feel inferior and robbing them of their self esteem by focusing on outward appearance and promoting unnaturally thin body types as being desirable and fashionable |

I feel that the song is a commentary on social disparity & how romantic attachment transcends the bounds of class & status. Intriguing lyrics. Would appreciate someone throwing more light on the possible meaning |

I think cat's in the cradle, little boy blue & man on the moon are the exclamations voiced by the father who probably considers all such kiddie-stuff a waste of time & not worth his time & attention |

What an apt commentary on the current state of affairs. We have the wherewithal to communicate instantly with anyone in any part of the world, but our interactions are trivial and superficial and most often we are too caught up in our gadgets to pay attention to our companions |

The song builds on everyone's ultimate fantasy : being someone else. All human beings have the tendency to imagine that other have it easier & to wish to be I someone else's shoes. |

| Celtic Woman – Orinoco Flow Lyrics
| 9 years ago
|
The lyrics echo the undulating flow of the river Orinoco which it describes. To me the idea of flowing with the river & getting to places mentioned is a . metaphor for getting ahead in life & achieving ones objectives. Couldn't quite get the (historical) allusions Ross& his dependencies Rob Dickins at the wheel. Would appreciate anyone who's qualified to elucidate the same

the song is a reflection on the effects of peer and parental pressure qn the lives of young people.
the chorus may be a tongue in cheek admonition to reserve passing judgement |
