Ted Leo and the Pharmacists – Colleen Lyrics 16 years ago
Colleen is gaelic for 'young girl'. The meaning of the name Colleen is significant and definitely on purpose. So like decemberists i think the song is universal for every girl as they go through stages of their lives. Girls often feel inadequate because of the standards set by society, like they're never good enough. This song is basically saying you are good enough, so believe it.

Obviously the story of two best friends growing up together. One, Colleen, is wild and reckless. The other, the singer, is cares for and always has Colleen's back.
Unfortunately, the friends are split by Colleen's want for the singer's boyfriend. Colleen tries her hardest to take away the singer's happiness. Finally the singer has enough of supporting Colleen and dumps her.

Joanna Newsom – Colleen Lyrics 16 years ago
Its simply a fairy tale.
Yes, it has many layers of meanings that will honestly never be agreed upon. But that is what songs and fairy tales thrive on, each person's interpretation.
So my solution is to not overanalyze and try to pick apart this masterpiece, instead let it wash over you as a lullaby of some sorts.

p.s. colleen is gaelic for 'young girl' and is basically the greatest name ever.
biased? always.

The Allman Brothers Band – I'm No Angel Lyrics 16 years ago
Its a guy telling a girl he likes/loves that he's rough around the edges but he'll teach her how to live and love freely. He knows he's not the 'norm' but he's trying to show that he can be what she needs and more as long as she accepts him for what and who he is.

Lynyrd Skynyrd – The Ballad Of Curtis Loew Lyrics 16 years ago
Definitely their best song, so underrated.
DreamMetallica2112 has it on the money all except for the store clerk thing. I agree with vanman70 on that one, i always thought of him as a bum that collected stuff he could exchange for money.

The Marshall Tucker Band – Fire on the Mountain Lyrics 16 years ago
Song of my childhood.
MTB is so underrated.

My guess is its about the gold rush in california and the hardships faced.
