| I'm pretty sure the point is that the ending everyone expected didn't happen, her dad said yes. | |

| *bangs head on table* I hope you grow up and realize that a person can purposefully make the narrator of a song be a dick in order to get a point across. | |

poh muh fukin god straylight, take that stick out your ass. How about you try talking to someone with no tv who doesn't know what the fuck mainstream shit is? I guess the killers who I like are mainstream... I just spent an hour disecting their song "dustland fairytale". I'm an english major and like to close read, so I enjoy this shit. so by my definition (even though the dude can't sing live) that MAINSTREAM band is good (they are mainstream, right? I seriously don't have a tv or anything so I can't be sure). and other "dumb" things like Panic at the disco also have "deep" (rolls eyes) meanings to their songs. I actually think this song has a meaning if you take the time to look at it. but even if it didn't I don't care. and if I was offended I wouldn't listen. No one is trying to force me to hear the music. so WHY does this bother you so much? WHY does it bother you if the massess like dumber and dumber songs? great ones are STILL being created, people still listen to them. and as for what the masses like... didn't that beaver or beater.... the little kid dude that sings some "baby" song.... just end up getting an award or something? I SERIOUSLY doubt that people my age are listening to a little kid sing about love. the "top" songs are really just ones that radio companies get paid to play more. it doesn't mean anything. |

| I think that was the point, the first interpetation I had of this was where the GUY was the whore. I've got a bunch more and wanted to discuss them here but people are just bitching and being losers XD their loss. | |

| *rolls eyes* apparently I turned into a teenagers without knowing it. god forbid I like something you don't. I guess that means you dislike instrumental songs. | |

| classical music is bad cause it doesn't have a meaning, apparently. | |
| 3OH!3 – Don't Trust Me Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| *nods* that's one interpetation I have of it. Though of course I'm suprised you missed the double meaning of helen keller being a reference to sex. and it's saying "don't trust me". ect ect ect | |

OMG OMG IMA MOCK OTHERS CAUSE I CAN'T COME UP WITH ANYTHING ON MY OWN. EVEN THOUGH I CAME TO THIS PAGE SO I OBVIOUSLY HAD SOME KINDA INTEREST IN THIS SONG. OMG OMG OMG *squeals* grow up darling, don't put people down for doing what you can't do. |

| erm, the point of the song is for people to be able to dance to it. they achieved their goal. how does it have no essence? That's like saying romance writers suck because they aren't writing things meant to cause people to think, like 1984. romance writers simply have a different goal. | |
| 3OH!3 – Don't Trust Me Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| *rolls eyes* bitter much? Then write your own song and get famous, if it's that easy. Really, do you know anything about music history? Do you REMEMBER the 80's music? stop being such a "I don't like it so you shouldn't like it". | |

well actually they would wash it off if they were giving in and doing things they said they wouldn't all interpetations are valid if they are logical. Though I have to say I'm 100% sure the singers in this were talking about the x's you get when you are underage. I find it funny that some kid went to one bar and is like "well THAT bar didn't do it!!!! SO THAR!" XD take it from those of us who are actually IN COLLEGE/ |

Okay... first of all... you guys need to stop fighting and calling eachother dumb. ALL interpetations for stories are correct, if they make logical sense. it doesn't even matter if it is the meaning the original author intended. You guys should know this, if you've taken a crit lit class or ANY story related class. It can be pawn or palm. I think it's pawn because palm sounds nothing like pawn and pawn makes more sense to me. BUT there are lots of nice interpetations made using the palm version, such as the one someone posted about palm's representing beating your enemies in a fight for your soul. So can you all STFU about saying "no you are wrong, I am right"? You should be ashamed. That said... why are you all ignoring the "cinderella" reference. That's a major part of this. Why would he use that, do you think? for me, I think it might be because cinderella is known for TAKING ACTION. though she had help. (btw I first and foremost like the interpetation that it is about heros. but I also agree with the validity of the cancer interpetation. so I will be addressing both). With Tef's hero interpetation I think good girl's die is more of a spiritual thing. they lose spirit. ect. As for the serenades and love songs bit? It could mean that s/he gave into the tv idea that life would be all good and romantic and beautiful. and then she found out it was a lie. _________ With this interpetation the don't go to sleep seems to mean don't give up hope. Yes, even if the world IS hopeless. but the world needs you and just giving in, like to depression and such, is "such a bitter form of refuge". you won't be happy doing that either. "is there still magic in the midnight sun". can you still find happiness in the dark times... or and here my interpretation varies. 1. did you give up when you found happiness "leave it back in sixty one in the dadence of a yong man's eyes" ie her lover. ie she found happiness and screwed the rest of the world. in that case "good girl's die" could also mean giving up, no longer fighting the good fight. 2. Leave it when you found back when you found happiness in sixty-one and dreams were high.... but all of a sudden the world crashed on you and you saw it wasn't a fairytale. Have you lost tha ability to find magic in dark times? Also, with the cancer part i think we can all agree that it has reference to death. though doesn't sleep imply peacefulness? "And the decades disappear like sinking ships But we persevere, God gives us hope But we still fear what we don't know." Once again, with the hero interpetation the decades disapear like sinking ships. Obbiously this means time is going by. but it also means in a bad way "sinking ships". Unless the ship is a docked one, this means people's lives were lost. They go through life and hold on. They get hope from god, but they are still afraid. They are still human and it's hard for them. For the cancer one this would mean that the decades are passing, each one like a slowly sinking ship, with horrors, but still going on. It can also be in reference to his dad. They persevere but they fear because they don't know if he will get better. this is VERY INTERESTING since at the end he turns the page and find's out the ending. the valley of the great divide.... I'm an athiest but isn't there a "in the valley of the shadow of death, I will feel no fear" scripture? Taking it apart, what is a valley? isn't it a walled in place, where you are protected, and hard to find (in some cases)? and great divide seems to represent either a change, being on the border or something... or a decision. I LOVE the interpetation about the pawn being a poker reference. that was just beautiful. and it makes sense for the taking money and running away part of the story. I didn't like it at first cause it sounded like the narrator was abandoning someone. WHY, after all, would he take money? but the poker interpetation really clears this up. Thanks Okay about the revelation and soul on fire part... I wrote this to someone else on facebook " I also take the interpetation of change being cancer. They had the revelation of them finding something. I think this cause it says disguise, which makes me think the change was bad. they thought they found something and could catch it, but they couldn't. and it set his father's heart on fire. BUT... then the next line doesn't make sense, unless she is talking about god. I prefer to think it has both interpetations. Of the father becoming a mormon and stopping to drink AND my interpetation.." OBviosuly, I am not addressing things that have already been mentioned, such as the ball gown commented and the sleeping gown (heros' interpeation= giving up). I find it interesting that it is "they" who turned the page. not him. Like fate, or doctor's, or angels... something... but not him. maybe his mom and dad, even. After all thi is supposed to be a fairytale about them, right? with the hero interpetation it could also mean society. OKAY now for a whole NOTHER meaning. you guys saw the music video, how it focused on the guy, right? well with "Saw Cinderella in a party dress But she was looking for a nightgown I saw the devil wrapping up his hands He's getting ready for the showdown I saw the minute that I turned away I got my money on a pawn tonight" I think about a girl not wanting to be a part of the "wild party" anymore. and she sees the devil wrapping up his hand (that poker reference again). the devil wants her man's soul and her man is getting read for a showdown (like in the music video). and the girl turns away, she had bet her money on a pawn, a bad hand. I like the "Out where the dreams all hide Out where the wind don't blow Out here, the good girls die And the sky won't snow Out here, the bird don't sing Out here, the field don't grow Out here, the bell don't ring Out here, the bell don't ring" It could be him physically running somewhere, or at that decesion place... or in depression.... if it is depression it's ironic cause he tells the girl not to hide since it's bitter..... but in his depression nothing grows, the bird's don't sing... and he think's that means the bell won't ring (as in church bell, signalling someone's death)... but just like he said before going to sleep is a BITTER form of refuge. I think the castle part could be biblical, but it doesn't make sense since she would be being shut out. I think it's more likely to be saying that fairytale dreams are slowly coming to an end. comments? |
