MGMT – Congratulations Lyrics 15 years ago
i think it's about wanting praise, but not wanting to admit you want praise, thus putting on false modesty when inside, all you want is a congratulations...

"But I've got someone to make reports
That tell me how my money's spent
To book my stays and draw my blinds
So I can't see what's really there"

it sounds like a touring musician, people take care of him, do everything for him, etc. but all he wants is a congratulations, but still continues to pretend he doesn't want it:

"I save my grace with half-assed guilt"

but finally, he can revel in the "great big congratulations"

"Spread my arms and soak up congratulations"

The Hollies – He Ain't Heavy He's My Brother Lyrics 17 years ago
this song and "bridge over troubled water" are two of the best songs ever written about friendship. they both perfectly capture what it is to be as selfless as humanly possible towards someone you deeply care for.

Simon and Garfunkel – The Boxer Lyrics 17 years ago
my second favorite song ever. so beautiful, the best song ever about loneliness. the opening lines always get me...

"I am just a poor boy
Though my story's seldom told,
I have squandered my resistance
For a pocketful of mumbles,
Such are promises"

Simon and Garfunkel – I Am A Rock Lyrics 17 years ago
whenever i hear this song, i think of the wonder years episode in which it plays in the background while kevin wallows in his bed after getting his heart broken by winnie for the millionth time, which makes it even sadder for me. it's so pure, so honest, so poignant. it really personifies how you feel after you get hurt by someone who allowed you to get close to them.
