Lady GaGa – Summerboy Lyrics 15 years ago
i hear the strokes on some of the guitars, but that's it. i hear more no doubt and blondie influences.

Katy Perry – Teenage Dream Lyrics 15 years ago
this song is such a guilty pleasure of mine.

i think that the lyrics "I'mma get your heart racing, in my skintight jeans, be your teenage dream tonight/Let you put your hands on me, in my skintight jeans, be your teenage dream tonight" were the best lyrics of 2010. Just the way she sings it and what the lyrics provoke is pretty awesome.

Carissa's Wierd – A New Holiday (November 16th) Lyrics 15 years ago
Hmmm... it seems the final version of this song that made it onto the album is different from the original lyrics. From the fold-out artwork of their "They'll Only Miss You When You Leave: Songs 1996-2003" compilation, the lyrics seem to be...

Your home again now
A brand new confession
Concealing my neck
Taking slow dancing lessons
Nervous laughter filled all of the voids
When I declared you your own holiday
Your voice sounded strange
When I heard it out loud
Remember November
When we slept in the car
Crooked legs don't walk so well
My eyes are tired
I declare you a holiday
You'll be here

Beautiful. It's interesting to see how the songs take shape.

Sea Wolf – Turn the Dirt Over Lyrics 15 years ago
I saw him last night in SF on his solo tour. He spoke briefly and emotionally about writing the song for his brother before playing it. Wow. It's a sad and beautiful song. I grew up in Seattle and remember the warehouse fire his brother and 3 other firefighters died.

Carissa's Wierd – Fear Not My Friend for Tonight We Ride Lyrics 15 years ago
The violin just cuts you deeply and the piano sends chills.

Carissa's Wierd – Fear Not My Friend for Tonight We Ride Lyrics 15 years ago
I've always imagined this song to be the soundtrack to a long sword fight scene in a movie where the hero dies. Or the hero kills his enemy, but also succumbs to his wounds and dies as well.

Carissa's Wierd – Farewell to All These Rotten Teeth Lyrics 15 years ago
This song is probably about meth addiction.

Anyway beautiful arrangements, esp. the violin and piano.

Are you really the Heather Rhodes?

Another question: How do you feel about your life and relationship being written about and shared with music fans?

Carissa's Wierd – Piano Song Lyrics 15 years ago
I'm listening to this album right now.

There's not much to say: This song is beautiful.

Bruce Springsteen – Johnny Bye Bye Lyrics 15 years ago
Bruce rewrote a Chuck Berry song - Bye Bye Johnny. And yes, he rewrote it in memoriam of his idol Elvis Presley.

Bruce Springsteen – Downbound Train Lyrics 15 years ago
This is probably the saddest song I've ever heard. From working at a carwash where it rains all the time, losing your love, finding your old, empty bed, and the haunting train whistle. Sad and beautiful!

submissions
Born Ruffians – Badonkadonkey Lyrics 15 years ago
I love this band! The singer has an obnoxious way of singing and I love it.

I think it's about the ups and downs in relationship. A couple shares happy moments like dinners and birthdays, but will they make it through financial hardships?

Sera Cahoone – Couch Song Lyrics 15 years ago
I remember getting into a fight with an old gf. Later I was driving around, it was raining, and this song came on KEXP. It made everything seem right.

This also made me rediscover Sera as a solo artist. I remember casually bumping into her at the Tractor Tavern a few times when I lived in Seattle.

Grand Archives – Index Moon Lyrics 15 years ago
I think this song is about hearing of a friend's death and the regret of not spending enough time with each other and not saying good-bye. Although the lyrics are sad, I find this song very up-lifting. The tempo, music and how the words are sung make it seem very triumphant for me.

PJ Harvey – Meet Ze Monsta Lyrics 15 years ago
This song kicks so much ass. I saw her live once on the Uh Huh Her tour and we went wild when that riff blasted through the speakers.

submissions
PJ Harvey – Big Exit Lyrics 15 years ago
This is my favorite PJ Harvey song btw. I think the song name "Big Exit" is just her irony b/c it's the first song on the album.

submissions
PJ Harvey – Big Exit Lyrics 15 years ago
Yeah, everyone who thinks this songs is about suicide is probably wrong IMHO. PJ Harvey isn't emo.

It's about finding love and hope in a crazy, messed-up world.

Carissa's Wierd – Ignorant Piece of Shit Lyrics 15 years ago
i love the cowbells at the beginning of the studio version and how the drums kick in when Jenn sings. Mat sings the whole song on the live version and the instruments sound more alive. One of my fav CW songs.

Wait! You're the Heather Rhodes? The Heather Rhodes that broke Mat's heart and inspired so much beautiful music?

Carissa's Wierd – The Color That Your Eyes Changed With The Color Of Your Hair Lyrics 15 years ago
"i won't need anymore memories
for the next 50 years i could still write you love songs"

So heartbreaking, so beautiful.

Carissa's Wierd – A Loose Hair Falls Into A Glass Of Water Without Ice Lyrics 15 years ago
One of favorite CW songs. I love how Jenn sings to the melody while Mat deadpan sings the words back to her.

Anyway I think this song is about caring for a lover who is bed sick. The non-sick lover has to leave, maybe to go to work, and the ill lover is left alone in bed, smoking his/her cigarettes.
