| Dave Matthews Band – The Space Between Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| YouConn: Yeah, I agree. Everyday seemed too commercial for the band. But this song itself is great - I heard it first on The Gorge, which has to be my favorite live album, and these guys always make a song different with each performance. The studio version of this song hardly compares with the live one. | |

obviously about Satan giving the people their dues. type o negative did two really good cover versions of this song. they did this one, and then did one with the lyrics altered so that it was from Satan's viewpoint. |

| Type O Negative – These Three Things Lyrics | 17 years ago |

The stuff written below is from an assignment for our song and poetry unit in English class. This is the first song or poem I've tried to analyze and decipher, and I want to see how I did. Plus I love Type O Negative. AND if you don't agree with this, just know that these aren't my views at all. I'm just taking it from the song. So yeah, enjoy. ---- There are actually three themes in this song (duh), all of which make up the main theme of condemnation for sins. The theme first mentioned in the first three stanzas is obviously about the religious concept behind abortion, saying it’s a great sin and gains nothing for anybody. The second theme doesn’t appear until stanza four, being the idea that all crises in human history predict the coming of the Lord for some great end. These crises include the Holocaust, referred to in line 21 where it says “Should there be failure to convert Zion”, talking about converting the Jews. This could alternatively be seen as a reference to the Spanish Inquisition. Another of the calamities would be the government’s involvement with Area 51 and its great secrecy. As for line 24, where it mentions “the year of our Lord, 1948”, this could be about the Great Depression, or even more likely, another reference to the Holocaust, though I have yet to do enough research to really back either of those up. And lastly, a pretty obvious one in line 29 where it says “The Twins fell beginning Armageddon”; this quite clearly refers to the falling of the Twin Towers in New York City on September 11th. After these, the third theme, as I see it, shows up not until the last line of the song: “All his people gathered round, through forgiveness salvation found.” Now, I don’t know much at all about Christianity or Catholicism or the Bible (although I wish I were more religious), but from my very limited knowledge, I infer that it may be a prophecy of all the people of the earth standing in awe as the Lord makes his Judgement. ---- If anybody has any comments or feedback, please let me know, as I would really like to know how I did deciphering this song. Thanks. |

| i actually was thinking about this listening to it on the way home. i thought it might be about his dad. i didn't know he worked at a shipyard, but i thought, living in brooklyn, it'd make sense. this song is great, and it hits my heart right in the right place. i'm actually making a flash music video for it. | |
