Animal Collective – What Would I Want? Sky Lyrics 16 years ago
to me, i'm not gonna get all deep with this
it's about getting high, and wanting to quit
i think in the beginning, he's looking back on himself, thinking about how he was after his first couple times (you feeling moany?/you feeling lonely?/you're not the only/what is the right way?)
he just keeps questioning himself, like he's unsure how everything's supposed to go

then it kinda fast-forwards to the present, i guess
and the high kinda fades (ha. word play.)
anyhow-
the high isn't the same way it was
(old glasses clinking, cuz it's all old news. new order's blinking cuz, well, that's what he's looking for; which would explain why he's weighted by thinking, and not floating like he used to)

the river is obviously some metaphor for something that didn't aid him the way he thought it would;
saying that it can't make you change, and that the sky gets filled up too fast
i thought this might be soberity
then there's the bit with the taxi cab
and then i thought it might be contemplation that's his issue
he's so busy daydreaming and thinking and considering, it really didn't make him change

so, in the end, what does he want?
an frequent, tired out high
or endless, meaningless contemplation

that's my take on it, anyway

Animal Collective – I Think I Can Lyrics 16 years ago
i don't entirely know why, but the first 4 minutes or so of this song makes me want to cry.

yeah, i do believe FBK is mainly about hash
what would i want? sky = weed + the questioning of a higher power

Animal Collective – What Would I Want? Sky Lyrics 16 years ago
i love ac,
but i hope this doesn't gain as much popularity as My Girls
then masses of,
"i-love-animal-collective-but-only-because-i-like-my-girls-and-what-would-i-want-sky, i really think the rest of their shit is weird" fans will sprout up out of nowhere

Animal Collective – On a Highway Lyrics 16 years ago
i don't know, it ties as my 2nd favorite track, next to graze
the vocals are soooo amazing

submissions
Animal Collective – Water Curses Lyrics 16 years ago
i could be completely wrong about this, but i find the melody from water curses uncannily similar to under the sea, from the little mermaid

i probably am totally wrong, and i am in NOOOOO way saying ac steals their music from disney movies
(never, ever, ever is that possible)

but when i found myself humming the melody one day, i slowed it down and realized it sounds like under the sea.

once again, most likely, i'm wrong
but it's a mindfuck for me

Phoenix – 1901 Lyrics 16 years ago
"Girlfriend, oh your girlfriend is drifting away
Past and present 1855-1901"

what the hell.
why hasn't someone gone to their song Girlfriend?

"Die and succeed
I say it out loud but you just don't care
Farewell, til you know me well
Farewell, til you know me well
Girlfriend"

die and succeed?
anyone?
cuz i'm completely lost...

submissions
Animal Collective – Summertime Clothes Lyrics 16 years ago
so, i'm not agreeing with all that 'purple yawn' shit. i'm with the ecstacy bit. i really doubt this entire song is about taking advantage of his wife.

Animal Collective – Peacebone Lyrics 16 years ago
yeah, i think it's bow.

submissions
Animal Collective – Bluish Lyrics 16 years ago
i dono, it does sound like it's about sex,
but i think they have more sexually driven songs, like deeper than this, y'know?
i don't think that's supposed to be the focus for bluish. (their song guy's eyes, however...)
anyway,
i think it's kinda like, when you're lying there afterwards, you know?
it reminds me of that bob dylan movie (i'm not there), after he has sex with that one french girl, & she's putting on her stockings...yeah, i might be alone on that, but that's what it reminds me of.

Yeah Yeah Yeahs – Zero Lyrics 16 years ago
sorry, i'd havta agree (with the prostitution meaning).

Camera Obscura – French Navy Lyrics 16 years ago
"Why would a _sudden__ disappoint unless"

that's all i got.
damn it, i can't understand what glasgow-based bands EVER say.
(like geraldine, by glasvegas?)
i seriously can't understand 20% of that song.

3OH!3 – Don't Trust Me Lyrics 16 years ago
scriptmylife, i totally agree with you.
the second 3oh!3 lands on mtv, they became total bullshit sell outs.

everytime they play this song at my school, i shake my head in disgust & disappointment.
i miss the old 3oh!3;
all the little fangirls & fanboys now have no idea how amazing they used to be...

Chairlift – Evident Utensil Lyrics 17 years ago
The most evident utensil
Is none other than a pencil
Not a multi-colored stencil
Nor a CAMRY UNCOOL


i'm not entirely sure what a camry uncool is.
as far as i know, a camry is a car.
i can't get past that.

Vampire Weekend – Campus Lyrics 17 years ago
"Perhaps he's been into this girl since forever, and finally they hook up. However, she just sees it as a regular one night stand while the narrator is totally in love with her."

holy shit, if that isn't my 10 month situation i've been stuck in, i don't know what is.

How am I supposed to pretend
I never want to see you again?


man, this fucking sucks.
i mean my situation, not the song.
the song's ace.

submissions
Chairlift – Evident Utensil Lyrics 17 years ago
nothing short of amazing.
chairlift's well rounded.

submissions
Animal Collective – My Girls Lyrics 17 years ago
yeah; amazing, as everyone else says.
(also, the first time i've heard of animal collective.)

it's very rare that a song could make me want to cry so badly & dance so badly at the same time.

bravo.

submissions
Stereo Total – I Love You, Ono Lyrics 17 years ago
no, 'ono' is actually, 'oh no'- it's a cover of the song 'i love you, oh no' by the plastics. so, no- it has nothing to do with yoko ono. &honestly, the song does suck. the beginning was so damn catchy, then you hear the rest & you're like, SHIT.

submissions
We Are Scientists – After Hours Lyrics 17 years ago
i completely agree with you;
although i am a teen, i'm certainly not a hipster wannabe.
i knew of this song months&months before nick&norah was even released,
&i never even saw the movie.

i hate the whole 'i-heard-it-in-the-movie-for-the-first-time-so-i-must-know-everything-about-the-band-and-its-music' factor, too.

submissions
Mason Proper – Lock and Key Lyrics 17 years ago
ah, dude, it totally is about sex, huh?
ahahhahahaha, i read that, thinking-
"fuckin perve, it can't be-"
(then read the bits about blowing up, blowing down, &taking a lock&key&shoving it.)

well, i think that's a bit too literal.
it's sort of beautiful, though.

"we left them there and drifted west
while you and i coalesced."

"Later on, one swore he saw us open the jar
all the chemicals luminesce in their chests
and shine right through
kinda like me and you
kinda like me and you do."

'one swore he saw us open the jar' kinda sounds like the singer/writer getting caught in some affair or other with a significant other.

i don't know; i'm surprised few people commented on this.

submissions
Franz Ferdinand – Ulysses Lyrics 17 years ago
"so sinister
so sinister,
but last night was wild."

all right, it might just be me, but i thought it was
"soul sista,
soul sista,
last night was wild."
maaaan.
that would've been cooler, but whatever.

still love this song. :)

(i also feel like a fucking idiot for not relating this to the Odyssey.)

submissions
Glasvegas – Geraldine Lyrics 17 years ago
even before i knew what geraldine was about, this song just makes me want to cry, it's so beautiful.

heh, his accent's so thick, i just realized he said, "my name is GERALDINE,".
the meaning's amazing, by the way.
it's clearly about one person saving the other; about them trying to make their life better.

Matt & Kim – Daylight Lyrics 17 years ago
And in the daylight we can hitchhike to Maine
I hope that someday I’ll see without these frames
And in the daylight I don't pick up my phone
Cause in the daylight anywhere feels like home


I have five clocks in my life
And only one has the time right
I’ll just unplug it for today
I’ll just unplug it for today


the spontaneuous, chance taking, who-gives-a-fuck tone delivered in those lines literally makes me giddy with happiness.

i was lower than low today, until i listened to that song.
it made everything better for 2 minutes or so.
:)

Kanye West – Street Lights Lyrics 17 years ago
i agree compeletely with BMAN-
i heard this during the ending of grey's, &after a couple of seconds, i realized it was kanye.
i'm amaaaaaazingly impressed; i previewed some of his album after hearing it.

the lyrics are so simple, but the song is beautiful.
it proves kanye may be as good as he says...

submissions
Uh Huh Her – Explode Lyrics 17 years ago
yeah, i agree with the whole prostitution thing,
but just because the artists are both female doesn't mean it's a girl-on-girl thing.

i found the song from the video,
which is animated,
with a man&a woman.

the video makes the context of the song seem a lot deeper than it really is;
i still think it has something to do with some poor lonely hooker, but wanting payment from a man.

Taking Back Sunday – Liar (It Takes One to Know One) Lyrics 17 years ago
nobody's too deep into anything-
it's obviously about lord of the flies, i knew that when this song in a store.

adam does say it's about the book; look it up.

submissions
Jack's Mannequin – Dark Blue Lyrics 17 years ago
this song's really ironic to me.
there's a whole joke with my teammates about this song,
when one of the girls set it as an alarm on her phone,
so everyone always sung the chorus as a joke.

then i listened to the whole song,
&it started to mean so much more.

i love how he sings,
have you ever been alone in a crowded room?
well, i'm here with you...

throughout the song,
but in the end, it becomes
if you've ever been alone, you'll know...

it's extremely sad&awfully relatable to me.
all very ironic, if you ask me...

submissions
Hot Hot Heat – Let Me In Lyrics 17 years ago
yeah, i guess it is 'poppy'; i dono, i don't like HHH that much anyway..

That I'm awake now
First time I've ever been able to see what I should have seen
Way back when you let me in

i loove that part, not sure why.
i think it might be the way he sings it,
or the whole 'my-eyes-are-open-now-i-get-it'ness of it all.
i love that.

submissions
The Wombats – Let's Dance To Joy Division Lyrics 17 years ago
yeah, you angry joy division fans need to pull your heads out of your asses.

i mean,
it got play on mtv.

how wonderful can it be?

submissions
Azure Ray – Sleep Lyrics 17 years ago
i've actually listened to this song two times while trying to sleep.

i cried both times.
actually, both times were almost exactly a year apart.

i don't even want to get into analyzing the song because of how literally hurt it makes me feel.

(not the song itself, but the feeling it reminds me of.)

submissions
Vampire Weekend – Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa Lyrics 17 years ago

submissions
Kate Nash – Pumpkin Soup Lyrics 17 years ago
this song kills me&makes me happy at the same time.

part of me praises
'i'm not in love,
i just want to be touched'

as it feel it's easier that way sometimes :P,

but i hate the part
'Whoops, I think I got too close
'Cause now he's telling me I'm the girl he likes most
Now I've messed up
It's not the first time
I'm not saying you're not on my mind
I hope that you don't think I'm unkind'

as a former friend of mine completely led on the boy i want(ed?) &he still wants her,

&she doesn't give a flying fuck about how he feels.

submissions
Minus the Bear – Throwin' Shapes Lyrics 17 years ago
no...i hear 'fingers touching bare skin'.

(don't ruin it for me, that's one of the best parts of the song.)

uh,yeah,i feel it's about weather.
sounds great, meaning's a bit dissappointing.

311 – Champagne Lyrics 17 years ago
yeah, i believe the guy is in love with a 'paris hilton' socialite type,

&she's got
'california on the brain'
&
'made alliance with the dark side of hollywood' (pursuing acting...?)
&she's 'got an appetite with no refrains' (partying nonstop)

so he treats her right like 'any other player would'

&'lightly she decides to fight him'
(starts treating him like shit, but 'lightly', thinking it's okay)

&he
'can't be around to pick up her bags'

&he hates being with her,

'but when I look at you it's like praying with my eyes
I follow you to sleep so I will find
your dream place'

but loves her at the same time,

&in the end,
he ends up
'treating her like any other sucker would'

&he realizes he'll 'never understand.'

Little Jackie – The World Should Revolve Around Me Lyrics 17 years ago

'i'm not convinced

Alesana – Ambrosia Lyrics 17 years ago
yeah, i was lost for a bit,
till the whole

'thanks to me, she's her own new necklace/she's as good as gold!' bit.

the narissistic asshole king midas
'now the lord of gold/Gods themselves envy my hand/in my perfection i have no want'

ends up wanting some chick, (yet eyes glint with greed untold) but can't touch her, ends up touching her, making her as 'good as gold.'

&he curses the day of his descent, in which he loves her&touches her, ending her life&making him miserable.

submissions
We Are Scientists – After Hours Lyrics 17 years ago
wooooooah.
this song is about death?

well...
that kinda ruins it for me.

i feel it's a
one-night stand-ish sort of thing.

how 'the door is always open/no one has the guts to shut us out' might be a party(?)

&how 'time means nothing/we're finally drunk enough...' sort of gives off that extremely stupid feeling you get when you're wasted&you can do anything, so time means nothing.

&the person speaking kind of knows what they're doing with the other guy/girl is a mistake,
&repeats,
'we're all right where we're supposed to be'
'time means nothing'
& 'say that you'll stay'
as if he/she doesn't want to let go of the person they're with.

submissions
Silversun Pickups – Little Lover's So Polite Lyrics 17 years ago
excuse my possible naive way of approaching this,
but i sense it has something to do the boy cheating on his girlfriend...?

"agreeing on a steep decline..
being caught is just the same."

&yeah, the 'smelling salts' part could be a reference to cocaine...

i'm not so clear on the 'bones collide' part either...

when she repeats,
"ending in the same way" repetively, it sounds as if he's cheated on her more than once, (as if it's happened before&she's tired of it.)

&'little lover's so polite' could mean,
she's polite enough to take it,
but little enough to not put an end to it.

i dono, my guess.
