Ryan Adams – Monday Night Lyrics 12 years ago
Think it's like this girl is using this dude, most likely when she's out drinking on the weekend. He wants more, she doesn't. Hence, he wants to be there on Monday Night, versus Saturday (when she's three sheets to the wind). Just my interpretation.

Regina Spektor – Laughing With Lyrics 12 years ago
@slittlemac . You are absolutely wrong. "When we are born we essentially know what is wrong and right. Any christian man who becomes gay knows what he's doing because his spirit-man compels him to know it's wrong. The reason being gay is looked down upon so much by christians is because it's different than many sins in that if you choose to be gay, you can't just repent for it unless you completely turn from it. If one were to lie and asked God to forgive him with his whole heart God would forgive him. But if the man lied ten minutes after asking God to forgive him it's obvious who wasn't really pouring his heart out. It's the same with homosexuality. If someone's gay they continue to live a life of sin. If they die after living a life of sin and never asking God to forgive them.... Where will that lead?"

1. When you started developing feelings for and noticing girls, I was noticing and developing feelings for men.
2. I was born and never felt being gay was wrong. People telling you its wrong is not the same as feeling it's wrong.
3. "Become gay". No, buddy. If your god made everything, he made me with an insatiable appetite for boners. DEAL WITH IT!
3. "Being gay is wrong because it completely goes against the bible." Can you quote the bible verse where it says "Being gay is wrong and we are completely against it." NO, you can't.

Dude, bigots like you make me sad that you don't have enough love in your heart to realize the detriment that you are causing to youth. Some young people, and older people for that matter, believe being gay is wrong because you and people like you continuously berate and demean us as a people. Having hate for gays, is having the devil in your heart.

Check out the 'Brother Ali' song TIGHTROPE. You might realize how mucked up your making these people feel.

b.t.w. I am a christian (not that it matters, or has the slightest bearing to the situation at all) All things are possible, like you realizing how wrong you are, let go of the hate. Jesus died for all our sins, but being gay wasn't one of them.

Ryan Adams – Don't Even Know Her Name Lyrics 12 years ago
The meaning is clear, but this song reminds me of the beatles every time I hear it....

The Strokes – Games Lyrics 12 years ago
No clue what the song is about, maybe about celebrity treatment in the courts/jail stints/rehab. "With all the noise above, we tried to call his name" (helicopters & news reporters), "The diamond cuts arrive, the crowd behind went wild"(fans & supporters). Could possibly be about them being treated as a higher class of citizen. "Empty world, empty life" (material things don't bring lasting happiness). "I will wait one more night" (the large number of "accidental" ODs) Who knows? I'm probably far off. Either way, love the song. Love the album.

The end, "I'm ok, I'm alright" to the end, reminds me of the ( second?) verse of "How Soon Is Now?" by The Smiths. "There's a Club would you like to go?" verse. Just sad and resigned from life, depressing. Strange how it reminds me of The Smiths with no guitars in the song at all.

The Strokes – Call Me Back Lyrics 12 years ago
I think the "I hear a voice in the ground" line is referencing evil thought, or the devil. That's the way I interpreted it anyways. Evil thoughts.

Wild Beasts – All The King's Men Lyrics 13 years ago

The Mars Volta – Copernicus Lyrics 13 years ago
The solution inhaled from the rag I hold
holds a maximum vacancy
as I held you in crippled bandages
don't you stay up and wait for me


I always felt that line was form the kidnappers viewpoint, more like he was using chloroform on a rag, which would definitely make you maximally vacant, no clue about the crippled bandages part, but would work well with the "Don't you stay up and wait for me".... Definately one of the highlights from Octahedron.

Eminem – 25 To Life Lyrics 13 years ago
" though hes has been addicted to it all, all the build up inside he just cant take it anymore 'and the only way for him to make everyone are to is to express it the only way he can.' "

Quoting from nellsten. Read this and you will know why all eminem fans have a combined I.Q. of 45. Really? Listen to/support good hip hop. Not this dude. Go get some good music.

SOME SUGGESTIONS: WU TANG, ATMOSPHERE, P.O.S, IMMORTAL TECHNIQUE, EAZY E, 2 PAC, BONE, BROTHER ALI, P.O.S, GUANTE + BIG CAT!

Jeremy Messersmith – John The Determinist Lyrics 14 years ago
Love this song. To me it's about how robotic we've become as people. Love the last verse, "One more ripple in the pond, stretches out until it's calm" It just seems so unattached and final. Jeremy, you rock my world. Saw Mr. Messersmith live @ Grand Ole Day in St. Paul, MN. 6/6/10. Absolutely amazing live, if you get a chance, go and see him. Nice, funny, talented dude.

Yeasayer – O.N.E. Lyrics 14 years ago
love this song, had to comment. although I'm gonna say I could see it being about addiction and giving it up. Whether that's being addicted to an ex ( I have been ) or alcohol. I think the song could be interpreted both ways.....

Jeremy Messersmith – A Girl, A Boy, and a Graveyard Lyrics 14 years ago
There wasn't a huge difference in the posted lyrics and lyrics in the vinyl...... but a few differences.




Lucy takes the long way home
Meets me in a field of stone
She says I don't know how I'm supposed to feel
My body's cold my guts are twisted steel

I feel like I'm some kind of frankenstein
Waiting for a shock to bring me back to life
But I don't want to spend my time
Waiting for lightning to strike

Underneath a concrete sky
Lucy puts her hand in mine
She says life's a game we're meant to lose
But stick by me and I will stick by you

I'm like a princess in a castle high
Waiting for a kiss to bring me back to life
But I don't want to spend my time
Waiting for just another guy

"It seems kind of funny but Labyrinth is one movie that I would mention. There are a lot of visual comparisons to that–using the owl for one. That's such a great movie! I like that type of fantasy. Maybe Blade Runner…there's a lot of space imagery for me on this album."


The reason for the owl, and if you've never seen Labyrinth, go see it.

The Strokes – On The Other Side Lyrics 14 years ago
REALLY? ok, if you absolutely love the strokes... you'd know 'on the other side' is from their third album "First Impressions Of Earth", not "Room On Fire", their second album.


This is a "I don't have anyone to help me/ rely on/ talk to" type song. They help us depressed people cope with shitty circumstances. Sorry if that breaks up your record. If your listening to it on vinyl, it flows beautifully.

Yo La Tengo – Periodically Double Or Triple Lyrics 14 years ago
After loving this song and album and listening to it more.... I'd say "Improvin' the view"

Ryan Adams – Don't Fail Me Now Lyrics 14 years ago
I think both of you could possibly be right. I always thought it was kinda about the aftermath of cheating on your significant other, forgiving the person and trying to work through it or moving on, or indecision .. "Lead me to freedom from my kingdom of fear" (the fear the other person will do it again)

Broken Bells – The High Road Lyrics 14 years ago
when you dissect and analyze something that much... Sometimes it loses it's punch. And it's "You let loss be your guide" . Not laws.... I enjoy smoking some danks as much as anyone else.... this song isn't neccesarily about smoking weed being good. Just think people over analyzing shit ruins the beauty in it sometimes. But even you couldn't ruin this song for me. Dope song.
