| The White Stripes – Seven Nation Army Lyrics
| 13 years ago

I agree that it is about revenge.
People did something behind his back that was really wrong, and he is angry about it, and wants to give them what they deserve. He is full of rage and that gives him determination, "A seven nation army couldn't hold me back.."
Basically it is about being incredibly angry and wanting to exact some sort of revenge. |

Even with lyrics as simple and straightforward as these, if an artist is capable of conveying such intense pain through music they have done well. Beautiful song. Even if it hurts to listen. |

When I'm depressed and I listen to Wilco Jeff Tweedy's voice makes me cry. In the best way possible. |

| Belle & Sebastian – Stay Loose Lyrics

I see this as being about a relationship in which neither person is quite satisfied, so the (girl, I'm guessing), suggests to make it an open relationship, but the speaker is still not satisfied, and fails to see how the open relationship benefits him. The girl says she is there for him, "Hey, you still got me." but he still feels "lonely" and "like a loser." The relationship isn't working either way, and he feels he is "running in circles" and "looking for a doorway," never getting exactly what he wants. |

| Wilco – Leave Me (Like You Found Me) Lyrics

I agree with TheWrongGirl about this song being about more of a beginning than an ending. It seems almost like he's trying to convince the person he likes or is interested in that they are good for each other, but at the same time is uncertain about if the relationship will work out, and if it doesn't work out, he'd like (her) to "leave me you found me."

| Wilco – Shake It Off Lyrics

I probably interpreted this too simply, but this song reminds me of having dreams where you are better off than in real life, "I take to sleep again/ Where I dare pretend/ I'm more than I seem" and then being disappointed when waking and having to "shake off" the feeling and come back to reality.
Anyway, the music and expression in this song is extraordinary, as well as the imagery in the lyrics, even if some of it is difficult to interpret. |

| The Hush Sound – Echo Lyrics

One of the Hush Sound's most beautiful songs. It can be interpreted in a number of ways. Personally, I think of it as someone trying to start a relationship with someone, but can't quite make it happen. She keeps trying, but he doesn't quite pick up on it. "I am your thought but the water is amnesia" and "For history's sake, would you please take notice?" I love how everything is related to ships and the ocean, it creates a wonderful metaphor. The Hush Sound's lyrics are amazing, they give you so much to think about! |
