Foals – Spanish Sahara Lyrics 15 years ago
beautiful song
a nice start to an highly anticipated album

i really love the line "it's future rust and it's future dust"
meaning that something dreaded "the horror" can create a corroding effect on a person/couple/personality, and to cause a person to become laissez-faire

BY THE WAY

it's actually "the spanish sahara the place that you'd wanna lose the horror"
instead of "let's banish the horror"

SORRY HERE ARE THE CORRECT LYRICS:

give me one more chance
give me one more chance
give me one more chance to love you

give me one more chance
give me one more chance
give me one more chance to love you

so open the door

give me one more chance to love you

give me one more chance
give me one more chance
give me one more chance to love you

so open the door
i've calmed down
can't you see that i'm trying
don't say another word
about the other boy
can't you see that i'm dying

this time things will be different
and you're gonna see
this time things will be different
and you're gonna see
these hands will come around
you'll love their touch again
this time things will be different
and you're gonna see

Foals – Titan Arum Lyrics 16 years ago
I'm not quite sure how the flower has anything to do with this song
but initially i thought it was about the futile attempt to escape depression

"sleep this off" -obviously meaning trying to sleep more often to get something off the mind
"your mind is just a loaded gun"- meaning your mind is full of thoughts/memories (most likely bad ones)

this bit was the most interesting to me

"contractors nor the council can find the time to piece your head again"- i think it suggests that the average person cannot help a melancholic person get back in tact with his/her's psyche. "contractors and council" being two different occupations of work, but both having one thing i common-fixing things.

Foals – Titan Arum Lyrics 16 years ago
Titum Arum is known in Latin, it's an ancient, rather rare lily from the tropical Sumatran rain-forest. The Sumatrans have a more apt name for it - they call it the CORPSE FLOWER
Anyone who has had the misfortune to inhale the scent of the Titum Arum is not likely to ever forget it. The smell has been variously described by first hand sufferers as - sickening, revolting, putrid, nauseating, like a combination of dead fish, rats and other sundry rotting carcasses-i dont see this knoledge as being a metaphor for this song????????????

Bloc Party – Letter to My Son Lyrics 17 years ago
HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS ON THE MEANING OF THIS SONG

(i found myslef at the point where we first kissed on the top overlooking the East London mosque)

its somewhat obvious that he is on the rooftop where they first kissed thinking back at all the events that took place with him and Marlana

(They said you can't go around breaking young girl's hearts)

he's relaying what people say in situations where a guy isn't that serious about his girlfriend, but sticks around for the sex, and goes on to tell her later that he isn't serious about her

(Oh how I'd love to be a rock for you
To be anything you could rely on)

this line is about him telling her that he'd do anything for her, after hearing that she is pregnant with his son. He also has matured at this point of the story, he's now developed unexplainable feelings for her after hearing the news of the baby

(And you looked so wanton in the back of the car
Like you could start a hundred wars)

this line is his accentuation of how beautiful Marlana is


(by the bedroom door, the kitchen floor)

he's thinking about the times he had sex with the beautiful girl (Marlana)

(see what trouble could we both cause)

he's questioning himself, asking "all we did was have sex, what could have possibly gone wrong"
he was nieve and somewhat careless that he could have gotten her pregnant

(Oh Marlana i'm too young
To be the father to a son)

this is him telling her that he feels he is too young to father a son

I'LL DO THE HONORS HERE ARE THE CORRECT LYRICS:

I found myself at the point where we kissed first
On a rooftop overlooking the East London mosque

They said, they said, they said, they said
"You can't go around breaking young girl's hearts"
I say, I say, I say, I say
Keep it casual, easy fit

And you looked so right in that red dress

Oh how I'd love to be a rock for you
To be anything you could rely on

So I'll try, I'll try, I'll try, I'll try
But I'll get caught out
So we'll try, we'll try, we'll try, we'll try
But we forget the lines, forget the lines

And you looked so wanton in the back of the car
Like you could start a hundred wars

See what trouble we could both cause
By the bedroom door, the kitchen floor

I tried, I tried, I tried

I tried, I tried, I tried

Oh Marlana i'm too young
To be the father to a son

I tried, I tried, I tried

I tried, I tried, I tried

Forgive me Oscar

Forgive me Oscar

Forgive me Oscar

Forgive me Oscar

Forgive me Oscar

Coldplay – Violet Hill Lyrics 17 years ago
WAS A LONG AND DARK DECEMBER, FROM THE ROOF TOPS I REMEMBER, THERE WAS SNOW, WHITE SNOW,
CLEARLY I REMEMBER, FROM THE WINDOWS THEY WERE WATCHING, WHILE WE FROZE, DOWN BELOW,
in this memory of a long, dark, and snow filled december, he is reminding us how unthoughtful people can be by looking down out their windows, and watching people suffer or "freeze" and do nothing to help, making it clear that we are living in times where people don't seem to care about the misery of others

WHEN THE FUTURES ARCHITECTURED BY A CARNIVAL OF IDIOTS ON SHOW, YOU BETTER LIE LOW,
the narrator is stating that the future of america is being built by the idiots we see on tv or read about (the bush administration)

IF YOU LOVE ME WON'T YOU LET ME KNOW,
is the question being asked by the "nieve" to the narrator who seems to know alot about the world

WAS A LONG AND DARK DECEMBER WHEN THE BANKS BECAME CATHEDRALS ,
the narrator is obviously stating that people nowadays worship money, {and what could become of a bank for money worshipers} a "cathedral"

AND THE FOX, BECAME GOD
meaning that the newscasters are being worshiped by people who tune in to the news chanel (FOX NEWS) to look for a sense of belief and guidance as they would to jesus

PRIEST CLUTCHED ON TO BIBLES, HOLLOWED OUT TO FIT THEIR RIFLES,
meaning priest are embracing their beliefs in the bible and hollowing out to protect their religion with the illusion of a firearm against people who try to make a mokery of their beliefs

AND THE CROSS, WAS HELD ALOFT,

BURY ME IN ARMOR, WHEN I'M DEAD AND HIT THE GROUND, MY LOVES OPPOSED, IT UNFOLDS,

IF YOU LOVE ME WON'T YOU LET ME KNOW,

WHOA WHOA,

I DON'T WANNA BE A SOLDIER, WHO THE CAPTAIN OF SOME SINKIN SHIP WOULD STOW, FAR BELOW,
he doesn't want to be a soldier who the captain (secretary of defense) is leading them to a trecherous bound mission (OUR MODERN DAY WARS)

SO IF YOU LOVE ME, WHY'D YOU LET ME GO,

I TOOK MY LOVE DOWN TO VIOLET HILL,

THERE WE SAT IN THE SNOW,

ALL THAT TIME SHE WAS SILENT STILL,

SO IF YOU LOVE ME WON'T YOU LET ME KNOW,

IF YOU LOVE ME WON'T YOU LET ME KNOW...
