Death Cab for Cutie – Transatlanticism Lyrics 14 years ago
God, there's something about this song that when it starts to play, I just take a deep breath and close my eyes. It's as if this song demands you be mellow, even though its lyrics could evoke a feeling of loneliness, maybe stress, which are feelings far from mellowness.

Jason Derulo – Whatcha Say Lyrics 15 years ago
For the first time today, I actually *listened* to this song. I know it's only a silly Top 40 song, but WTF?

Strike One:
>> I was so wrong for so long
>> Only tryin' to please myself

This guy's probably an egotistical jerk. If he himself sees that he was only looking out for himself, then I'm pretty damn sure he was a douche.


Strike Two:
>> So, no, I know I should have treated you better
>> But me and you were meant to last forever

Probably as a result of his own conceit, he treats his spouse poorly. If you wanted to be with someone forever, I'm pretty sure mistreating them is not the way to go.

Strike Three:
>> Girl, I was caught up in her lust [...]
>> I know what I did wasn't clever [...]
>> I don't want you to leave me
>> Though you caught me cheatin'

Aah, the truth comes out! He was not only a self-centered ass, but a cheater too!

"Give me another chance" he says. And in desperation he cries, "But when I become a star, we'll be living so large / I'll do anything for you." Now he fills her head up with grand ideas. And if this is some average Joe, this is a total fabrication! How do you intend on becoming a star? Realistically? Are these the same lies that kept her bound to him to begin with?

>> I really need you in my life
>> 'Cause things ain't right

Yes, things ain't right, and that thing would be you.

I can only hope this woman chose not to accept this deceitful character back.

Sia – Don't Bring Me Down Lyrics 17 years ago
I've loved this song since forever and never stopped to think what this song actually means or what it's about. (There's just something about Sia's voice - especially in this song - that kind of makes me not care what the song is about as long as she continues to sing it). But anyways, this songs is amazing and now that I have some understanding of it (thanks maryannsabitch - on both drug abuse and relationship issues) I love it even more.

Adele – Tired Lyrics 17 years ago
Yeah, I think that's about it. She's fed up of the relationship, of him wanting to be/being with someone else.

I love that little instrumental part halfway through this song. The strings are remarkable.

Adele – First Love Lyrics 17 years ago
I love this song. One of the best from "19".

"And if I stay / I'll be alive"

I thought that line was "I'll be a lie"... makes more sense to me...?
