| It is about Enrique Gatti, silly! | |
| Art Brut – The Great Escape (We Are Scientists cover) Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
Eddie's inability to sing has spoiled this cover. He should not have attempted it. We Are Scientists is a brilliant band with a clear, talented vocalist. Eddie just talks. It works for Art Brut, as their albums are more like conversation over some excellent music- the inclusiveness is its charm. But We Are Scientists is vocalist's music! I can't say I like this cover. |

| Dungeon Elite – Stay Together for the Pics Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
It is about a failing relationship. I find the title funny. It is urging their lover to stay in the relationship because their photographs look good. It's hilariously superficial. xD |
|
| Darling Violetta – Candy Jones Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
It is a good song! :) I love this band. The singer is a bit bad- her idea of a high note is screeching. But I still love them and their carefree musical arrangements. |
|
| A Skylit Drive – Ex Machina Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
I could not stop listening to this song. It is excellent. It is about someone who sacrifices everything to serve the one they love. A devoted relationship. But they then decide they want more, and think for themselves. |
|
| Betty Curse – Rot In Heaven Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
It is about somebody so evil that hell does not want them- or at least, this person is in Betty's eyes. It is a break up song. "Because you're too good for hell"- it is irony. The person is so despicable Hell is not evil enough to take them in. "You came home alone last night/And made love to your hands"- Tee hee. xD I am sure you know what that is about. "You put a crucifix inside yourself/Just like Linda Blair"- the crucifix scene from The Exorcist "Because if it don't then I swear to god/We were only ever friends"- she went out with them but regrets it very much and tries to deny it |
|
| Barenaked Ladies – The History of Everything Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
It is ironic that when Chuck Lorre was describing The Big Bang Theory's rip-off "The Theorists" (look it up) he said the theme to that rip-off show was the cheesiest piece of pop in the world. xD But I still love this song, even though the vocals are not that good. Mainly because I love The Big Bang Theory! (Both of them!) :D |
|
| Ambulance LTD – Helmsman Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
I find their music boring- including this one, but I sort of like this song for some reason. It is a song about fighting for a relationship through problems, using a sinking ship as a metaphor. |
|
| Green Day – The Simpsons Theme Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| This song... it is beautiful. | |
| The Smiths – Panic Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
I adore this song, it's so true. Music today has gone to pot. Viva la Smiths! |

|
| Jellyfish – Ignorance Is Bliss Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| It's about the generic Mario plot! This band is terrible, but I do love this song. It's a diamond in the rough. | |
| The Midnight Beast – House Party Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
I hate this band. They're the embodiment of everything that's wrong with pop music today. But I do like this song, mainly because I'm a politics geek. And even then I don't like it that much. As this is songmeanings, I'll give you the answer- it's a spoof political party anthem for the 2010 UK election. |

| For All Those Sleeping – Janice, It Ain't Funny Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| The relationship is over, but he doesn't quite want to let go, even though he knows it's run its course. | |
| For All Those Sleeping – He's Dead Because Mommy Killed Him Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
"Don't ever fall asleep!" Love this song. I think it's plain and simple- it's about nightmares. |
|
| The Dirtbombs – Sherlock Holmes Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| Is a cover of a song by The Sparks. | |
| Sparks – Sherlock Holmes Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
FFFF. This is obviously a song about how he wishes he could be as suave and impressive as Mr Holmes but cannot be xD Yeah, I'm guessing it's probably about how he wishes he had the class and romanticism associated with the Victorian era to impress some girl, and he's just using Sherlock Holmes as an example because people automatically know who he is. |
|
| Sleeping with Sirens – In Case of Emergency, Dial 411 Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| AHH. I always associate it with Sherlock Holmes XD (I need to stop reading them dammit but Doyle keeps dragging me in!) The real meaning of this song, however, is probably him liking a suicidal girl and wanting to help her. | |
| Sin With Sebastian – Shut Up and Sleep With Me Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| This song is awful. But I always associate it with L from Death Note thanks to a fan video I once watched... Damn you YouTube! | |
| Pierce the Veil – Drella Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| My all-time favorite PTV song. These songs all seem to be about failing relationships, however. It makes me wonder if all these relationships Vic has fail because he's actually a pretty bad person. He paints himself as some hopeless romantic who doesn't know why he keeps getting dumped in his lyrics, but it seems to me he's just really crap at making relationships work. | |
| Pierce the Veil – Million Dollar Houses (The Painter) Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| It's one of the weaker songs on the album, yes, but I can't stop singing the chorus! | |
| Pierce the Veil – Caraphernelia Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I love it, 'cuz I'm called Cara. | |
| Art Brut – Am I Normal? Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| It's clearly about a childhood one-sided romance that he couldn't quite do anything about because he couldn't talk to the girl from fear of rejection. Sort of sweet, in a sad way. | |
| Betty Curse – Dark Dark World Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| A generic depression-after-a-break-up song, clearly. But I love it. "All the poison in the sea! Yeah, yeah!" :) | |
| Betty Curse – Thin Ice Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
I think this is about bi-polar disorder, or mood swings. Probably with a bit of depression thrown in there, because of her whole poser-goth thing. "So please take me while I'm young and thin"- bi-polar or depressed people often have low self-esteem, so she's basically asking to die while she's still young and conventionally pretty so people will remember her better. "I've been around, oh yeah/I've been to hell and back/This is the sound, oh yeah/The sound when thin ice cracks"- she's having a breakdown because of things she's seen, done or been involved with; the thin ice cracking is a metaphor for her frail sanity cracking up, and the 'hell and back' is about what causes her breakdown. "You gotta spread my ashes thin, thin/We'll skate beneath the stars and sing"- Ashes being spread thin, it's clearly about cremation after death and the ashes left behind, implying she kills herself or dies from her torment. And the skating beneath the stars ties in with her "thin ice" metaphors, and a belief in some religions that after death people turn into a star. |

| Betty Curse – Excuse All The Blood Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| Betty's favorite band is the Norwegian heavy metal band Mayhem, and one of their singers in a past line up committed suicide. (His stage name was ironically 'Dead'.) He shot himself in the head and slit his wrists. His suicide note ended with "Excuse all the blood", which is what this song is about. | |
| Betty Curse – Don't Get Involved Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
It's about suicide and depression. "Start handing me razors/I'll help out the painters"- it's about self-harm, as in, her blood will stain if you give her razors to cut herself with. "Gangs trying to get me/They want me on TV/Just get on the bus/Don't make a fuss"- I'm not sure, but it sounds to me like rape? As in, street gangs that would rape and/or kidnap her, thus making a news story which gets on TV, and how she's given up caring about what happens to her. "Don't get involved"- she doesn't want any help and she doesn't think she can get out of the rut. A pretty dark song compared to her other stuff, but not too meaningful. I think it was just to try and up her dwindling poser-goth image, but she's plain ol' pop to me! I still love her though. |
|
| Betty Curse – Stay Out Of My Way Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| A feminism anthem! I love it. It's obviously about a guy who expects her to be a domestic housewife, and she's plainly telling him to kindly piss off. I love the bit "Why don't you stay? Stay, stay, out of my way!" | |
| Betty Curse – Girl With Yellow Hair Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| It doesn't really mean anything much. It's a generic pop song. The kid-friendly lyrics (the whole rebellious kid, yay! theme) and the fact she played this song on a kid's show show it was meant to be her first single and make her a successful artist as radio stations would be able to play it. That plan pretty much failed. I hate this song, it's the worst from the album. | |
| Betty Curse – The Look On Tony's Face Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
WOAH MEGA COMMENT D: Sorry! XD |
|
| Betty Curse – The Look On Tony's Face Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
Actually it's "You're no longer my candidate", not cavity... Lol, cavity, wtf? Anyway, to me this song seems to be about Tony Blair and George Bush... "Should've seen the look on Tony's face/When the President went all the way"- probably a double meaning, because the media at the time humorously implied Blair and Bush to be gay ("all the way"), and "all the way" could mean also the Iraq war, as in Bush went all the way to starting a war and "the look on Tony's face" at the time was shock. (Even though he then joined in.) "Kiss on a first date"- well, the whole 'gay' thing coming back again. This is to do with how Blair practically devoted himself to doing what Bush wanted from the moment when they met. "Slut!"- see above. Calling him 'slut' is basically Curse saying she thinks Blair's a sell out, New Labour promised peace and then he did what Bush wanted and went to war. "Final requests before I blind fold dad?"- Bush's dad was the President before him "We were raised on magazines/Hoola hoops and beauty queens"- typically American things "Execution's never been so fun"- the war again "Who are you?"- (it's sung inbetween the pre-chorus bits) this is probably a line about how Bush didn't actually seem to know anyone important in politics when he became President, or a line about how everyone was shocked when Bush became President because it was believed Gore was meant to have won "You're no longer my candidate"- as in electoral candidate, this line means people no longer voted for Bush and/or Blair So, yeah. That's what I think it is anyway; I mean how could it not be? Anyway. This is my fave Betty Curse song, because it's surprisingly meaningful for her songs (let's be honest, her lyrics aren't exactly intelligent) and also, I'm a politics geek, so the lyrics appeal. |
