| Yann Tiersen – Rue des Cascades Lyrics
| 14 years ago
|
|
It's like... catharsis, somehow, like a cleansing. Like Ilyazenepipa said, a place to go to not have to feel or think, when saddened by something. "You washed me". Cleansing? I don't know. Catharsis. Sounds a bit like "Cascades". I love Yann Tiersen and his epicness |

This is not a Yann Tiersen song - it is by Marguerite Fréhel. It was featured in Amélie and on the Amélie OST (which, apart from this track and 'Guilty' by Al Bowlly), was written by Yann Tiersen |

Agreed with above ^^ I read that in an interview. Matt said that the whole of Memory Man is pretty much about, and dedicated to, his wife and son. Sweet, no? |

pinkaspinksarah is pretty much right - I read in an interview that this song is about how he is making money off the songs that have come straight from his soul, and that he feels he is performing them to strangers, kind of like by signing a record deal and doing concerts and stuff he's selling his soul to the devil |

| Unkle Bob – The Hit Parade Lyrics

I hate the line "I want to get laid". Grrr it pisses me off so much. Like, Unkle Bob are such a nice, Snow-Patrol like band, and we elevate them to great heights in our mind, but it turns out they're just as obsessed with sex as any other man |

| Keane – Spiralling Lyrics
| 15 years ago

It's quite god-like isn't it? "I made you in the image of myself"
I don't care what the rest of you say - it's not typical Keane at all, but I love it! |

| Mew – Snow Brigade Lyrics
| 15 years ago
|

To me, the lyrics, like those of the whole of Frengers, are somewhat sinister. That's the best thing about Mew imho - on top, they're all sugary scandipop goodness, but listen to the lyrics and there are much deeper, more sinister shades of meaning. So amazing. Mew are possibly the best band to have ever existed |

Favouritest Carpark North song EVER! The choir really does add another dimension, doesn't it? |

Going on from what keereerar said, apparently Natasha had this amazing dream, and woke up with all the lyrics and songs in her head... or something.
I love the driving, rhythmic harpsichord in this, it really makes the song |

Fuck you 13 Black Roses. Go be an arsehole somewhere else!
Bobby Fischer died about a year ago - I remember reading an article in the newspaper about him and his life. Interesting stuff |

I personally agree with the theory that this song is about the government. "In right-wing fashion, we'll nurture xenophobia" - LOVE that line. Such genius |

| Iliketrains – the Beeching Report Lyrics

Excellent, excellent song. I love when the choir joins in "reform, reform"... it's almost like all of the rail workers singing together, don't you think?
As to the meaning, well, I think Phang pretty much hit the nail on the head |

I LOVE this song.
Obviously some guy is breaking up with her and she's willing herself to keep control and not break down in front of him |

Great song. Melissa Kaplan has to be one of the best musicians I've ever come across. Agreed with Guerrilla_Radio on the meaning |
