| Gravenhurst – Nicole Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| Gee smart guy you are so impressive, but this isn't a dictionary definition forum it is a song meaning forum, so instead of smart-assing everyone why don't you offer up your thoughts on this song by Gravenhurst, entitled "Nicole." | |
| Snow Patrol – Run Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| Thank you for the "MISSING LYRICS" remark, because although I like the song a great deal, I feel a bit ambivalent about these touching feelings, and remarks by people here because it really feels like words are missing... | |
| The George Baker Selection – Little Green Bag Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
As a 48 year old guy can recall George Bakers Little Green Bag didn't know what it meant, but it says to me something totally different than what we are talking about here. If you pick apart the song lyrics and the symbolism in the Video something else begins to make sense. If the narration about "looking back on the track," and "for a little green bag," are broken down, Baker is kind of forlorn that he is on the heroin track, because what he would really prefer is just some weed but he has to get a fix. Track would be "track marks." ---Now, consider the symbolism of the black & white video of the dark haired beauty riding side-saddle, and sauntering by on a white stallion. then connect this symbolism; Heroin has been described as a seductive lady, and heroin has always been called Horse to symbolize its raw power and how it can runaway with you on its back. Baker wants off he would have preferred all along to have had that little green bag of weed. He tells us what he experiences with heroin just read this stanza; Lookin' for some happiness But there is only loneliness to find, Jump to the left, turn to the right Lookin' upstairs, lookin' behind, yeah! He says that he wants happiness, but that these trips he takes while on heroin have caused him to loose his way, he is unsettled it is quite obvious "there is only loneliness to find, Jump to the left, turn to the right lookin' upstairs, lookin' behind, Yeah!" He is looking over his shoulder unable to trust anyone to include himself, this man is very clearly suffering a terrifying continuous paranoia. If, he doesn't get off of the Horse, 'Heroin' he is going to lose his mind, he has to find that little green bag.. Perhaps the attraction Tarantino had to George Baker's great song "Little Green Bag" as it relates to Resevoir Dogs, maybe that a huge multi-million dollar diamond heist would be the magic elixir that cures these hard-luck guy's who led a life of crime, and that this is really all that they wanted from their first day as an adult looking for a job was to find some way to make a fortune so they could quit the hustle associated with criminal activity... And, of course it doesn't work out for the boys in the movie, just as it doesn't workout for George in the song. |
