| Spirit of the West – Frankfurt I'm Sorry Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
I remember reading that the band got a bad first impression of Frankfurt. They allowed this to taint their opinion of the city, but given more time they realised that it's actually a nice place. "Our war on this town a mistake we found" says it all really. |

| Spirit of the West – Sadness Grows Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I agree with 10000stones. The "buried or cradled" part also seems to refer to the "keep it or abort it" dilemma. | |
| Spirit of the West – Turned Out Lies Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| This one is pretty self-explanatory - politicians and the empty promises they make to get elected. I like how the first verse is from the citizen's point of view and then the second verse is from the politician's point of view. | |
| Neil Finn – Loose Tongue Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| An awesome song with great guitar and bass riffs. I agree that this is partly about the break up of Crowded House. I think it's also a criticism of the media in general. | |
| Neil Finn – Astro Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I read somewhere that Neil Finn described this song as being about watching your own funeral. I guess that would kind of explain, "As those saints preserve us when we're dying, To pick us up from where we're lying." | |
| The Finn Brothers – Sunset Swim Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
A fantastic song that I think is about growing old and facing death. The lyrics need a few corrections. When I was a younger man The sun was rising from the sea Now it's going back again Taking little bits of me I park my car above the beach And walk into the white and green It's something I can almost touch It's nothing that I've ever seen I'm going for a sun set swim (gonna drive out for a sunset swim) I'm going for a sun set swim (yeah I think I'll throw myself right in) I'm rolling with all unknown And falling through the backlit waves And all the damage that's been done Dissolving in the ocean spray I'm going for a sun set swim (gonna drive out for a sunset swim) I'm going for a sun set swim (yeah I think I'll throw myself right in) I'm going for a sun set swim (gonna find out where the world begins) I'm going for a sun set swim (yeah I think I'll throw myself right in) I'm going for a sunset swim And I've been waiting all day long Sunset swim taste the foam Something tells me I'm almost home Home I'm going for a sun set swim (gonna drive out for a sunset swim) I'm going for a sun set swim (yeah I think I'll throw myself right in) |
