| Simon and Garfunkel – Scarborough Fair/Canticle Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
This is my interpretation. This song describes how the memory of an idyllic homeplace is forgotten due to war. "- And to fight for a cause they've long ago forgotten" The positive lyrics feature strong imagery and encourages the sences through its description of these spices and love and other such idyllic things, making a power ful image to contrast heavily with the negative bracketed lyrics; the hills swept in tears, the soldier cleaning his gun, the war. It is like he has forgotten why he fought in the first place, and those memories of the past are gone. Very sad. |

I don't think this one should be understood literally, I belive it may apply to media, but I think it can work in other interpretations and that it is intended to. I think this is a timeless reminder to question who society or the individual listen to. In particular, I think it is about the internet in this context. The internet is presented to us from a machine, the computer. It certainly is of a rambling and untrustworthy nature. Who put it in charge? THinking about the reliability of sources people trust, like wikipedia. |

| I thought "anymore" was "animal" when I listened, but it makes more sense this way. | |

When I read the lyrics i thought it wasn't a girlfriend, but a daughter that he wanted to come back to live with him. It could work on both. |
