| The Notwist – Off the Rails Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
I can't believe no one has commented! I think this is one of the notwist's most complex songs. It's brief, but there's so much meaning packed in so few lines. "We're off the rails, now we are trains ourselves" sets up the analogy of individuals to trains. Their trains have derailed, and their relationship has stalled? "We're off this place, doesn't mean we're somewhere else" Just because they've stalled/broken up, it's not because he's found someone better or had a reason. It just stopped, and now he's in limbo. Just empty and without connection. "This is all I know, sitting still to watch the engines come and go." He's stuck in that place, quietly watching other people passing by. He wants to get back on track and fall back in love, but nothing is happening. |

| that site misses at least one thing though. the line "wearing synthetic wigs made of anwar's dreadlocks" also probably refers to oil. ANWR (arctic national wildlife refuge, pronounced an-war) is a provocative drilling site in alaska. Synthetic wigs (i think) are made from plastic products which are originally petroleum. so the synthetic wigs really are ANWR's dreadlocks. or i'm overanalyzing. | |

| is the synth in the back a sample of HEALTH's USA boys? or is it original? | |
| jj – New Work Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| The juxtaposition between this song and the original is fantastic. This song is all about the flaws and imperfections of someone living in the city, while empire state of mind is about the enduring success of someone living there. | |

| Kills takes JJ to a new level, not only are they legitimate artists on their own terms, but their remixes are insane. They keep the JJ flavor as well as the remixed song's style | |
