The Hollies – He Ain't Heavy He's My Brother Lyrics 16 years ago
Since first time I heard this song (by that country group Osmond Brothers) I think it's about carrying a brother's coffin.

Pixies – Velouria Lyrics 16 years ago
Do you guys know what "Velorio" means in spanish and portuguese? It means "funeral". Since Black likes using latin terms in his music, its clear this song is about a suicide or death, in a romantic way, he calls Death by "she". Who could explain the thing about the lemmur skin? Who's supposed to be here ("I know she's here") after long waiting ("Where have you been?")? Who could take him to "wade in the shine of the ever"? The correct answear is Death. Frank Black is a morbid poet.
