| Gary Numan – M.E. Lyrics
| 2 years ago
|
|
Another song ‘M. E.’, which stood for Mechanical Engineering, its model type, was about the thoughts of the last machine left alive. Long after the world was dead and humans were a thing of the past, this machine still lingered. For hundreds of years it waited, unable to die, utterly alone, but fully aware. Numan, Gary.

I thought the lyrics were "Sitting in your mama's basement with a shi-tsu" which gives the song a twisted vibe. |

| David Bowie – Ziggy Stardust Lyrics

A "Stage name" is a character name. I've actually seen David Bowie play left-handed. And everyone knows that David Bowie wasn't his real name. Also, this comment is from 9 years ago. |

| Simon and Garfunkel – Cecilia Lyrics

I got up to wash my face
When I come back to bed someone's taken my place.
He wasn't gone for very long, maybe that "someone" was a dog? It would explain why he was laughing. |

| HIM – All Lips Go Blue Lyrics

I don't think these lyrics are correct?
Hear the silent sighing song
A moment of calm before the storm
My heart so violently beats along
Leaving me to want to end it all.
I weep for a dream in a grave.
The one that made all lips go blue. |

I've never heard of Jacarandas referred to as "Flame Trees". Jacarandas have purple flowers. Illawarra Flame Trees on the other hand have red flowers and look like they are on fire when in flower. |

Frankenstein is actually Dr Victor Frankenstein, Valo is not referring to the monster, but the scientist who bought the monster to life. |

There is always that someone in your past you can't forget, and even though you move on, you still love and miss that person, even though you can't be with them. |

| HIM – Wicked Game (Chris Isaak cover) Lyrics

Finding all the christian/satanist comments amusing.
Ville: I haven’t been baptised. My dad’s not in the church and is not a religious person. My mum is more spiritual - she does Thai-chi and goes to Stonehenge and things like that. I’m proud to be pagan. Finland is not really a religious country. I’m still looking for my god. [edit]
His words. |

The song is about David Bowie. The line "He played it left hand" says it all. David plays left-handed. Ziggy was his "stage name". |

| Enigma – Mea Culpa Lyrics
| 16 years ago
|
|
My vague rememberances of Latin are that in modern latin "mea culpa" is "I'm guilty", but in classical latin translates as "i'm sinful" and definately the version I prefer to use in context with this song. But it can also translate across as 'my fault'. |
