| R.E.M. – Begin The Begin Lyrics
| 16 years ago

|
That was one of R.E.M.'s best albums, and it rivaled "Murmur" for best I.R.S. material. You must be crazy. "These Days," "Fall on Me," "Cuyahoga," "Hyena," "I Believe," "Swan Swan H"... I mean, some of their greatest songs came directly from this album. Yeah, you're just unstable. |

| R.E.M. – Sing For The Submarine Lyrics
| 16 years ago
|
In an interview with Pitchfork, Michael Stipe explained the meaning of the song:
"That's where "Feeling Gravity's Pull" came from. That's where "Electron Blue" came from-- electron blue being a drug that's made out of light. "Sing for the Submarine" is about a guy who in fact has gone so deep into this almost neurotic state that he's imagined a way to escape from the city with his loved one in the event of some cataclysmic...event. And that escape route is by way of a submarine that is fueled by melody. And that creates the template for the song."

| Oasis – Wonderwall Lyrics

Because the Beatles were just so astounding... Puh-lease. The Beatles may well be, and easily so, the most overrated band in the history of popular music. Second place? "Mystical" and "mysterious" but stupid and dense Bob Dylan. |

| U2 – Magnificent Lyrics

So when, do you suppose, will U2 come out of the closet as what they really are--a "Christian" rock band (which is as big an oxymoron as any)? |

| Tom Waits – Time Lyrics

|
|
Tom doesn't need to try... Lyrically, he's leagues above Dylan. He's just not as palatable and radio-friendly. And that's all that's mattered in music since time immemorial. |

| Wilco – Nothingsevergonnastandinmyway(again) Lyrics
| 16 years ago
|
People need to stop saying 'off of' for songs that come FROM an album... It sounds really vulgar.
This, however, is the diametric opposite of vulgar. From far away, one could even mistake it for a Beatles song. Which has its positive and negative connotations, of course. |
