| Neko Case – Red Tide Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I saw Neko yesterday (GREATNESS), and before they played this song (which is amaaaaaazing), she said it was a song about breaking up with a city, in this case Seattle, Washington. She said Seattle is not a good boyfriend of a town. I had no idea of this, and about halfway through the song, the line "I hate the rain" randomly clicked and made sense. =] |

| Jenny Lewis – The Next Messiah Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
THIS SONG IS AMAZING. I think she's said a lot of it has to do with how her dad wasn't around a lot when she was younger. In that kind of situation you just wonder about what your dad does and could have been. |

|
I just "got" this song. It's incredibly poignant. I just don't really like the "be still this old heart" part much. Amazing chorus though. |

| Ben Gibbard – Carolina Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
I saw Ben last year when he came to Chapel Hill, NC. He played this and said he'd never played it live before. And in the last line he said "The entire state of North Carolina waits for me." Special place in my heart. (that sounded really cheesy, I apologize) =D |

I sometimes think of this as two childhood sweethearts, with its innocent and childlike themes. Beautiful, nonetheless. |

| That little solo is so lovely. It sounds so lonely. | |
| Death Cab for Cutie – World Shut Your Mouth (Julian Cope cover) Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
Flying in the face of fashion: This girl is trying to be herself in a world that doesn't easily accept nonconformists like her. World shut your mouth: She just wants the world to leave her alone so she can do what she wants. |
