| Moloko – Sorry Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| Nice? I always thought it was supposed to be sarcastic, showing how empty the word "sorry" is. | |
| Vienna Teng – Gravity Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I always thought that it was about someone falling in love with an outsider, with the story being told from the outsider's point of view. The outsider wants others to know about the relationship ("Hey love, is that the name you're meant to have for me to call" seems as if she's never spoken the words out loud, and "these are the scars that silence carved" could mean keeping the relationship quiet is upsetting her), but the other is fearful of his friends' reactions. She is warning him not to listen to him, as they will make up rumours ("poison"). The satellite around a blazing sun gives you the image of someone being distanced from everyone else, but still drawn to them by an invisible link (as they do not yet know of her relationship with one of them being the force of gravity pulling her towards them). |

| Frou Frou – Flicks Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
I think that this song is about using your past experiences and memories to make choices in the present (the beat and sounds certainly suggest things whizzing past in memory and time being distorted). "I'm motioning still they stand inside me" - time is marching by as she is waiting and thinking about the choice she should make, with her experience guiding her. "Colourless I kiss her cold forehead I feel life, lose it in a minute" - one of the memories, dreamt nostalgically in black and white (maybe something to do with a death?), before that memory flicks by and is replaced by another. "People concertina into my private magic lantern" - All the people she has known squeeze into her past and guide her like a lantern into her future. At least, this has always been my interpretation. |

| Kate Nash – Nicest Thing Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Marius01 - The "two sugars" line implies that she wishes that he knew her well enough to understand all the little codes and idiosyncrasies of her personality, rather like in a married couple. | |
| Frou Frou – It's Good to Be in Love Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
I agree with everyone who says that this song is about unrequited love. Basically I feel that the whole message of the song is "It's good to be in love, but it sucks that you don't love me". |
