Okkervil River – Black Lyrics 17 years ago
I understand songs can generally be interpreted many different ways, but its crystal clear this song is about a girl who was molested by her father. I don't see how there could be any other meaning, its extremely obvious.

The Posies – Grant Hart Lyrics 17 years ago
Love this song...my favorite version is the live one on Alive Before the Iceberg. Love the reference to paper drums and the shredded voice on "Keep Hanging On" (trust me, and Husker Du fan has turned it up without having a choice!). Also, cool references to the Huskers' song "Too Far Down" and the song/album "New Day Rising" in the 2nd verse. But really, the best line of the song is the closer...if you have anyone you are completely sick of and/or totally pissed at, I'd also recommend you suggest to them to "take two Grant Harts" and to "call me when you die". It doesn't get any better than the Huskers, Grant's songs are unreal, and this little tune captures that in three short verses. Love it. Oh, and the "two Grant Harts"? Tough choice, but I'd say "Terms of Psychic Warfare" and "Sorry Somehow".
