| Kashmir – Ophelia Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
I don't think it's about the girl being mediocre, I think that line is something he's heard her saying about him what with the question mark and all. I think this song is about her being so away with the fairies, and screwing around with him that he can't tell how she feels about him. Lines like "Black Magic worked" and "I don't want to know how you do what you do" suggests this girl is a bit of a player, who changes her mind about the men she "charms". "I know there is no doubt Venus is your star" - Venus is the goddess of love, he can see that she lives for it, even if it means pushing people away to attain. "You're the pebble in my shoe, and the beauty in my view" suggests she really gets under his skin, but he still finds her incredibly beautiful. "Insurmountable, always colourful" suggests shes too great to understand or overcome because she's on a whole other plane of existence. |

| Red Riders – Crawl Back Baby Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| I can't believe this has no comments! This is a seriously underrated song. It's lovely. | |
| Mew – Eight Flew Over, One Was Destroyed Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
As cliche as this sounds, I'm really thinking that this song is about a drug addict who is using drug trips as a form of escapism, and the lover who gets left behind. "Half way through flight there-to" makes me think of someone who has greened out before they have reached a state of mental release. I disgree with the person who says a lot of Mews songs are about war. The music, and the lyrics are just too gentle for that. Most of Mews song I believe are about lovers and breakups. |

| Mew – Silas the Magic Car Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| I'm pretty sure at the begging he's singing "I wanted you to meet her" as opposed to "What did you dream about?" | |
| My Bloody Valentine – Sometimes Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Such a beautiful song, is the epitome of the relationship I have with the person that introduced MBV to me. Now that's irony for you. | |
| Mew – White Lips Kissed Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| This is one of my favourite Mew songs, up there with The Zookeeper's Boy, but I can't for the life of me work out what Jonas is singing in the background at the end. Does anyone know? | |
