IAMX – I Am Terrified Lyrics 15 years ago
Chris Corner: An exposing, naive therapy ballad. This the closest i have come to being simple. i think there is an element of Phil Spector meets Suicide to this. Beginning soft and welcoming , it slowly turns into a screaming orchestral monster. All the strings, horns and 'real stuff' were recorded here in Berlin by an inspiring group called The Unfall Orchestra. The rest , as usual, programmed by me.

IAMX – An I For An I Lyrics 15 years ago
Chris about song:
This is a challenge . I think it shows a subconsciously political side of IAMX. I am generally unnerved by what i see in the world or what i am forced to see by ignorant, money driven indecent humans. It is everywhere, everyday in my face. This dis-functional electronic experiment is my way of trying to focus my negative energy, or let it go, however you want to see it. Scratchy guitars, wrong notes, hard drums.Fuck you and fuck the world. Revenge against the willing souls and the white lies.

I'm not sure, but I think that it's rather "white lie" than "white light". Am I wrong?

IAMX – Bring Me Back A Dog Lyrics 15 years ago
\\It's long comment\\
I'm not a native English speaker, but I did some work to understand this lyric.. and this is how I get it.
If estimate this lyric superficially it's definitely about S&M, but I believe that It has more deep meaning, 'cause Chris is so intelligent and thinking man, you know.

I think it's about religion. Yes, I know that Corner is not a believer. I'll try to explain:

"From the fall I hold the word conviction
And the thrill to the swell is in your golden touch"- it's about, how people believe in everything that is in bible and pastors' speeches, that words keeps them from the fall into sin ( they think so), and they are thrilled in religious ecstasy, they feel god's touch.
"But the flesh is weak and without reason
So I slave to your beat and soul for all time" - it's about parting human beings on soul and body, flesh is weak, it's "bad", flesh makes sins, flesh is needed to be punished. And therefore they slave souls to divine serving.
Refrain is some kind of satirizing of dumb and immeasurable worship.

"When you strike with soul and quick precision
I'm snagged by a nervous twitch and cold desire" pastors can turn the person into nervous believing by one straight phrase with right intonations and gestures, its like a hit in sore spot. Religion actually is a set of such kind of kicks.

"But they say the wretched get their kingdom
Breathe on, it's my time, let's go, we all die" - about heaven and paradise, we all die and go to heaven but while we're alive we stay in wrecheds kingdom. It's like "Hey, people life is nothing, let's prepare to the trip to other world"

"The trouble is me, you
The trouble is me, you
Oh, the trouble is me, you
The trouble is me, you" - dialog with "god" who is right, live person with all shit inside or some holy substance?

we could make a lot of suggestions about meaning but we won't get it till Mr Corner tell us everything in straight phrases.

Sneaker Pimps – Superbug Lyrics 15 years ago
great song
I think it's about to be in love with person who can't show own feelings, though wish to. Who always stays impenetrable.
Dumb-means this stupid trying to show some care in presenting pointless things " the pains you took to show me"
or it's just a person who don't know how to love...
anyway I feel this song, and it's enough to me for understanding
strange and charming
donno why but it reminds me Franz Kafka "transformation"
