@[mamie1890:42903] Amazing how it came back like that! Sounds like your memory bouquet is healthy. :) |

Arianne – Komm Susser Tod Lyrics | 4 months ago |
@[anne101824:40947] Oh my, a comment from the me of 9 years ago! How strange. I must have just been a budding Evangelion fan then. Haha. This site is great for time capsule comments like this, I really enjoy it. :) |
BoA – Scoring Lyrics | 6 months ago |
Bloody hell this song is rougher than I realized. Fantastic writing. Makes me want to punch the guy who inspired this. |
Donald Fagen – Tomorrow's Girls Lyrics | 7 months ago |
I’ve always heard this one as more playful than threatening, shredding time aside… though that could be referring to surfing. ; ) |
Electric Light Orchestra – The Diary of Horace Wimp Lyrics | 8 months ago |
@[Zorro3:39416] The end makes me think of Dear Prudence every time!! |

Chicago – Old Days Lyrics | 8 months ago |
@[Toronodo:39330] Gahahahaha. Look at lil' ol' college me. I'm nostalgic for... eh, I think I still don't feel it. ???? More grateful for all the more music I now got under my belt. ;D |
Loverboy – Working For The Weekend Lyrics | 9 months ago |
"you better start from the start" Was that the best they could do? Pretty dumb. Overall fun song, though. |

Sting – Brand New Day Lyrics | 9 months ago |
@[shan4short:38836] Oh my gosh, of course it was Stevie. It just had to be. Love love love. |
Donald Fagen – Trans-Island Skyway Lyrics | 11 months ago |
Is this like the only song that uses "daddy" to refer to the actual person's father? It's hilarious. ???? |
Steely Dan – King of the World Lyrics | 1 year ago |
@[GlynRhodes:36105] @[claysthename:36106] Holy crap, you're both amazing. Great stuff. |
Spandau Ballet – Gold Lyrics | 1 year ago |
@[protocon:36069] It's nice that even after all the destruction the robot has wrought the scientist is still supportive of her! He obviously really loved his creation. "Always believe in...!" |
Supertramp – Give A Little Bit Lyrics | 1 year ago |
@[Furioku:35736] how ya doin 16 years later |
Supertramp – Take The Long Way Home Lyrics | 1 year ago |
@[longwayhome:35734] @[Insanity_Prevails:35735] Exactly! I think those final few lines paint a happy ending (up to interpretation of course) - makes it feel to me like a second chance or second wind. The subject has run off to do what they want to, they're "not around" for the same ol' stuff because they took the long way, thought about it, and made a decision. |
James Taylor – Fire And Rain Lyrics | 1 year ago |
@[Lilacsweetie:35390] "possibly the most beautiful song ever written" I've had the same thought many times. I'm grateful to live in the same period of time when it exists. |
Elton John – Island Girl Lyrics | 1 year ago |
@[SteelyDan:34889] This is exactly right. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Island_Girl |
Blue Öyster Cult – Shooting Shark Lyrics | 2 years ago |
Wikipedia says it was inspired by a Patti Smith poem. And I feel like the Shooting Shark is a comet or some such astral phenomena that is a yearly event. |
Steely Dan – The Second Arrangement Lyrics | 2 years ago |
Nice mix of the instrumental and lo-fi track: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvF1xeGrpS0 |
Steely Dan – The Second Arrangement Lyrics | 2 years ago |
@[mrose77:34290] Fans are still working on it, and the search for the lost master track continues: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvF1xeGrpS0 |
Sting – Seven Days Lyrics | 2 years ago |
@[patobrien:34193] Thanks for bringing it to my attention, I really need to focus on appreciating drumming more, it's usually so subtle but it adds so much. |
BoA – Duvet Lyrics | 2 years ago |
@[zak:33126] Let's all love Lain! |
BoA – Drinking Lyrics | 2 years ago |
Really great final song for the album. Wrap up all that pain in some hope. |
The Monkees – (I'm Not Your) Steppin' Stone Lyrics | 2 years ago |
J-pop band SCANDAL's song Shojo S sounds quite a bit like this. Possible inspiration? |
The Monkees – Mr. Webster Lyrics | 2 years ago |
Ahh, never could quite catch what they were saying in the song. Not particularly fond of it, seems trying to be The Beatles tooo much. Glad it's got a sorta funny story to it instead of somber as the tune would suggest. Stinky Mr. Frizby, why not give Webster that dollar raise, would've been Nice. |
The Monkees – Gonna Buy Me A Dog Lyrics | 2 years ago |
Love this, makes me laugh every time. Even without the ad-libbing I think it's pretty clever, going for a nice spin on the "my girl left me / I can't find a girl" songs and finding optimism in some four-legged companionship instead. |
Blue Öyster Cult – Burnin' For You Lyrics | 2 years ago |
This is just such an all-around knockout of a song that I can hardly handle it. Frikkin' masterpiece. Got some good comments going here, too, nice to learn a bit of the history and meaning. |
The Monkees – Zor And Zam Lyrics | 2 years ago |
Has a very Shel Silverstein feel to it. Fantastic writing, and the passion (and scorn for worthless fighting) that is put into the vocals is wonderful. Definitely one of my favorites. |
Electric Light Orchestra – Turn To Stone Lyrics | 4 years ago |
@[Egghead15229:26509] Oh gosh, did you just turn to st |
Nana Kitade – Kesenai Tsumi Lyrics | 5 years ago |
I love how her voice sounds when she's singing this, it really sounds like she's putting her all into it, full of passion. It may not be the best singing, but it certainly has power. |
John Mellencamp – R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A. Lyrics | 5 years ago |
Beat sounds like it was stolen from 'What I Like About You,' which came out first and is, in my opinion, a better song anyhow. Song sounds so forced, unlike some other tributes to stars of the past. Blech. |
10cc – I'm Not In Love Lyrics | 5 years ago |
Every time I hear this song start I think it's Hall and Oates' 'She's Gone' and then I'm disappointed. Not that this is a bad song, just that I'd rather hear 'She's Gone.' Funny that they have a similar subject matter. |
Grateful Dead – Truckin' Lyrics | 5 years ago |
Is 'Do-Dah Man' referring to any particular individual? |
Yoko Kanno – I Do Lyrics | 5 years ago |
Song was already making me tear up and now I know that I know the English lyrics....... man oh man. Beautiful. |
The JaneDear Girls – Wildflower Lyrics | 5 years ago |
Love this song, has such great rhythm to it. Very straightforward meaning - this girl is kick@$$! |
Led Zeppelin – The Wanton Song Lyrics | 5 years ago |
That one crescendo-ing riff may have inspired some title cuts in the Trigun anime: https://youtu.be/pWC07pcjN2Y?t=4m18s |
New Radicals – You Get What You Give Lyrics | 5 years ago |
I thought instead of "But when the night is falling You cannot find a friend (friend) You feel your tree is breaking Just then" it was "But when the night is falling You cannot find a friend (friend) You feel your tree is breaking Just bend," or maybe I've been brainwashed too? |
The Spinners – Games People Play Lyrics | 5 years ago |
I feel like "nowhere to go" turns into "know where to go" (or vice-versa), which is just so happy and clever and wonderful. Love it. |
Alabama 3 – Converted Lyrics | 5 years ago |
I know they're typically mocking of faith / institution, but this song has a nice wholesome feel to it. Sounds like praise. They'd probably get a kick out of my feelings toward it, as that kind of subversion is probably what they were going for. :P |
Cream – Crossroads Lyrics | 5 years ago |
The lyrics almost sound as though they're from the Devil's perspective, as people pass him by but do not fall for his temptation. I guess he was a better guitar player than fiddle player, huh? |
The Jimi Hendrix Experience – Castles Made Of Sand Lyrics | 6 years ago |
Though the first two stories end in sadness, the third to me speaks of happiness. The whole thing of course is about impermanence, and I think the third tale is talking about how sorrow and illness aren't going to last forever either. "It just kept on going" – it kept getting better. I think Jimi was saying, "hey, it's not all bad." |
The Jimi Hendrix Experience – House Burning Down Lyrics | 6 years ago |
Oh wow, thinking of this as a civil rights song makes a lot of sense. I thought it was just a random crazy fantasy, the imagery is so vivid. 19 miles high! |
Led Zeppelin – Your Time Is Gonna Come Lyrics | 6 years ago |
The implied c*** after "Do want you want, I won't take the brunt" cracks me up. I wonder if an early version of the lyrics was a bit more explicit? |
T. Rex – Planet Queen Lyrics | 6 years ago |
"The planet queen perchance to dream She used my head like a revolver" What?? FLCL inspiration much??? |
Michael Jackson – Billie Jean Lyrics | 6 years ago |
@[butterflykiss84:12463] I dunno, for people who love horror films, I feel like that same love propels Thriller above Billie Jean. Otherwise I can definitely see how Billie Jean is arguably his best song. It's tough to make a choice, they're so good! XD |
Queen – Seven Seas Of Rhye Lyrics | 6 years ago |
Freddie was such a bad@$$. Love it. |
Van Halen – Panama Lyrics | 6 years ago |
"... and lean the seat back." Cracks me up every time. XD |
Steely Dan – Almost Gothic Lyrics | 6 years ago |
@[Marshack:6267] It's a Steely Dan song, so it's always up in the air, but this is how I interpreted it as well. And plus, like you said, it fits the theme of the album. Wonderful poetry. |
The Allman Brothers Band – Dreams Lyrics | 7 years ago |
Little different from Fleetwood Mac's. XD |
