| Laura Gibson – Where Have All Your Good Words Gone Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| I understand it as if she wasn't really talking to a man in particular, but humanity. You know, when poetry was a desired talent, naivety was appreciated and not mocked, and humanity was't comparable to an old corrupted man. | |
| CocoRosie – Left Hand Shoe Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Left hand shoe is part of a poem in Alice through the looking glass, when the white knight sings a balald, and this is part of it: And now, if e'er by chance I put My fingers into glue Or madly squeeze a right-hand foot Into a left-hand shoe, Or if I drop upon my toe A very heavy weight, I weep, for it reminds me so, Of that old man I used to know– And it makes me think of L. Carroll, who was also accused of pedophilia, while he created the most beautiful and innocent stories known to literature. |

| So we can't speak about the Brazilian song in any other language than portuguese? | |
| Blonde Redhead – Loved Despite Of Great Faults Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Depending on your nature and self assurance, you flower or fall to be noticed, you are noticed, you grow with a person, and after all the time, all the words and discussions, and all the obsessions with each other's faults, you are reminded. You "love each other despite great faults". The "where do we go from here?" To me is about that plateau time, when a relationship is past initial enchantment, and drama (fears, etc). What does the relationship turn into? how to grow up and mature? In the end you are both together, you will move together, and all the words are over. You are finally free, as long as you stick around to find out. I love the last part: It was a time A way of life The only secrets We talked about Were all the fears In all these years We spent together. To me, this bit really is about all the relationships a person has when they are growing (and maybe when a person is a bit immature, but naturally so), until one day, with a particular person, all the words are over and you are free to finally stay in silence. If you are lucky enough to have parents, or maybe even grandparents that are still married, you will know what I'm talking about, they stayed to find out. They are free and move together, no matter what. |
