| For the quote from Mario Savio, by the way, the phrase is "When the operation of the machine becomes so ODIOUS..." | |

Correction: "All we are is stars" is "All we are is dust" |

| Barenaked Ladies – Jerome Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| A song about Jerome, Arizona, obviously (considering the references to Mingus Mountain - a mountain near the town - and to the jailhouse "falling" down a hill which happened in the town after a mine blast). Interesting, and a really obscure topic for a song. Love it! | |
| Shearwater – God Made Me Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| To me this song seems to be the narrator's rejection of God in the wake of some catastrophe, perhaps the "unnatural light" and bomb-like event described in "Meridian." The last line especially, "I am life breathed in the radiant lie, God made me," seems clearly to reject the "lie [that] God made" the narrator. It's an interesting song, definitely rather mournful in tone (like most of this album) and really seems to characterize a sort of wistful nostalgia and despair over the present situation of the narrator. | |

To correct MayaMoo, I think the line is: "We have got our stories, but please tell me-e-e-e What there is to complain about" |

| Ben Folds – Kylie From Connecticut Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| For the record, I believe the line is "she sees it again as she turns out the light". | |
| OneRepublic – Secrets Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
I need another story Something to get off my chest My life gets kind of boring Need something that I can confess Till all my sleeves are stained red From all the truth that I've said Come by it honestly, I swear Thought you saw me wink, no; I've been on the brink, so Tell me what you want to hear Something that'll light those ears I'm sick of all the insincere So I'm gonna give all my secrets away This time Don't need another perfect lie Don't care if critics ever jump in line I'm gonna give all my secrets away My God Amazing that we got this far It's like we're chasing all those stars Who's driving shiny big black cars And every day I see the news All the problems, bet we could solve them When a situation rises Just write it into an album Send it straight to gold But I don't really like my flow, no Se tell me what you want to hear Something that'll light those ears I'm sick of all the insincere So I'm gonna give all my secrets away This time Don't need another perfect lie Don't care if critics ever jump in line I'm gonna give all my secrets away Got no reason, got no shame Got no family I can blame Just don't let me disappear I'ma tell you everything, so Tell me what you want to hear Something that'll light those ears I'm sick of all the insincere So I'm gonna give all my secrets away This time Don't need another perfect lie Don't care if critics ever jump in line I'm gonna give all my secrets away ________________________________________ Simply my interpretation of the lyrics. It's certainly NOT "sick of all the act sincere." |

Quick corrections: "I'm done, there's nothing left to show I try, but I can't let go Are you happy where you're standing still? Do you really want the sugar pill? I'll wake up tomorrow and I'll start Tonight it feels so hard As the train approaches Gare du Nord As I'm sure your kiss remains employed Am I only dreaming?" |
