Joanna Newsom – Monkey & Bear Lyrics 13 years ago
I'm surprised no one has yet posited that this song could be an origin story for the constellation of Ursa Major, what with the rest of this album oozing with a love for the cosmos and celestial bodies.

This stanza in particular speaks that to me:

"if you could hold up her threadbare coat to the light
where it's worn translucent in places
you'd see spots where almost every night of the year
Bear had been mending suspending that baseness
now her coat drags through the water
bagging, with a life's-worth of hunger, limitless minnows
in the magnetic embrace
balletic and glacial of Bear's insatiable shadow"

In other words, bear got what she wanted, and can now bare her teeth for all of eternity almost every night of the year via her constellation now imprinted on the night sky

Man Man – Knuckle Down Lyrics 14 years ago
Pretty sure the last chorus is

it's cursed, not a road that I ever thought
I would travel to get you back
our panic will burst like birds full of aspirn
we ARE to blame
it's the same is it was NEVER before, so

Animal Collective – Banshee Beat Lyrics 14 years ago
There's one line in particular that speaks to me, and I feel like I REALLY understand it.

"that either way you look at it you have your fits
I have my fits but feeling is good"

To me this says he is looking back at the shitty bits of the relationship, the parts where he was feeling extreme despair or hatred, and he doesn't regret them. Experiencing feelings other than happiness is enlightening in retrospect. This may not be what they meant by this, but to me this fits perfectly.

Shpongle – No Turn - Unstoned Lyrics 16 years ago
Wouldn't it be "Reality is ripping at the seams, ripping at the seams."
Ripping at the scenes doesn't make too much sense, and seams is already somewhat of a saying.

Aqua – Cartoon Heroes Lyrics 16 years ago
Wow, some message they are sending with the lines "What we do is what you just can't do"

So much for the you can do anything you want to do bullshit we've been fed by our parents and other influences :D
