| Peter Doherty – Last of the English Roses Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
Bottom line is that he is praising a girl who he has a huge crush on for being in touch with everything from coolness and style to history and soccer. The last of the English rose suggests that she is a dying breed of the complete woman in England- Kind of a "they don't make em like they used to" mentality. I must say that his references, although some juvenile, are quite deep. This only adds to the fact that she is the perfect idea of a beautiful, intelectual woman in the day and age of texting and overall dumbness of the world as it was and as it is. Great Song Pete! |

| Peter Gabriel – Downside Up Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
Based on how Peter Gabriel desribes this song in his DVD Growing Up, I think its a play on how much we rely on our own physical laws here on our tiny planet. Perhaps after death or within some type of metaphysical self-discovery we can truly understand that there's more powers that be and that love can exsist throughout the Universe. If I remember, In the DVD PG imagines laying on the ground gazing at the stars and imagining everything flipped. |
