| Steely Dan – Any World (That I'm Welcome To) Lyrics

It's probably been thirty years since I first heard this music. I did not understand or pay much attention to the lyrics then. I just enjoyed the soothing communality of the music. And today the same music paints my memory of that time with color, and the lyrics have more meaning with the perspective that comes from living. No, things are never perfect or without pain, but it helps to get with the relativity of things. The larger picture's been definitely worth it for me, in many many ways. |

Helloooo! The name of the band is Sneaker..Pimps, and this is their breakout, defining hit. Would not over think it. The cynical but not yet bitter hooker interpretation works for me. It's an age old story, elegantly played by what's her name. She should be in pictures. |

You kids need to get better at placing the songs to the time they were written. This song is simply about political correctness and being tired of it. Sheesh, someone says "karma" to young people and suddenly everyone wants to write a book or start a religion. |

| Zero 7 – Somersault Lyrics

Beautiful song and lyrics. She's talking about a man who is not just great because she loves him, but someone who is great because he loves life. The thing that makes it extra bittersweet special is the alternating tense. Half the time, she speaks of him in the knowing present tense, but the sense you have from the whole song is that this is someone who she was close to and who saved her, in the past. |

This is a nice song by a talented group. Whoever is scripting these lyrics, must be hard work. But need to get a couple things corrected up front. It's the "Rufus album" and "at that party, on Avenue A, where.." It's from her real life so it matters. |
