Nine Inch Nails – A Warm Place Lyrics 19 years ago
I agree with ForThoseAboutToRock. This song isn't about the character making a turning point, it's about him succumbing to his weakness (heroin, i'm assuming). Note how the song begins as exactly what the listener is hoping to hear, and then slowly deteriorates into the sound of air being blown through clarinets. It's the beginning of the end of the album, basically.

Röyksopp – Poor Leno Lyrics 19 years ago
the second part of these lyrics is so wrong....
it goes like this

Poor Leno
Haven't you been told
Being nine years old
Means I'll always find you...

Beyoncé – Irreplaceable Lyrics 19 years ago
I think some people miss the point of this song...

The main reason why I love this song is because her tone of voice in her singing (especially 'I could have another you in a minute') alludes to the fact that she can't actually get over him easily, but she's trying to convince herself of it. It adds a completely new depth to her otherwise straightforward lyrics.

The Notwist – Consequence Lyrics 19 years ago
i love how the lyrics of the song act just like the notwist's musical style (electronic and acoustic combined). i'm pretty sure that colour, movement, and spin are all qualities of sub-atomic particles. so, in essence, he's using these scientific-digital-era objects to describe love, the most universal (and possibly most scientifically indescribable) quality of humans. brilliant.

José González – Heartbeats Lyrics 19 years ago
i love both versions of the song; each brings something awesome to the table. i just think it's funny how jose transformed the song so greatly that no one would believe that the knife did it first with their tweaky electronics. to whoever said that the knife's version didn't mean anything (NEW NOISE), that's a baseless comment since the knife actually wrote the lyrics, therefore they, over anyone, would have given the lyrics the most meaning. in all, i think this was a great experimentation on presentation of music. lyrics can be beautiful when interpreted on both ends of the spectrum.

Rihanna – SOS Lyrics 20 years ago
uhh anyone who converts soft cell into dancehall has my vote. i love tainted love, and i think it's great that rihanna used part of the beat, updated it, and made it more of a 2-beat rhythm than a 4-beat (not to mention adding an insane amount of bass). brilliant.

Adult. – Glue Your Eyelids Together Lyrics 20 years ago
this song is about using to many stimulants.

so many that you have to glue your eyelids together to go to sleep.

a great song to get hyper to.

no, the title is correct.

Röyksopp – Only This Moment Lyrics 20 years ago
Clouds in my head
Have been parted with grace
By the voice of an angel
Revealing her face
And her words, they make sense, and I do(n't) understand
Falling in love isn't part of the plan
Forces within me
Mix reason with lust
But I'll try to accept it and not make it worse
Cause I know I might lose it by taking the chance
But love without pain isn't really romance

I listened a bunch of times and cross-referenced with other sites, and this is what i came up with.

Lovely song about guys who can't read girls' emotions and feelings.

Metric – Grow Up and Blow Away Lyrics 20 years ago
in the polaroid commercial, they replaced "die" with "fly"

i'm pretty sure the song is about a guy who gets a girl pregnant for the sake of tradition. he apparently "needs something to go on" in terms of his bloodline, and "took the easy way." the singer is singing the irony that the child is no "easy way." "her body is the baby" shows that the child is the important part now, the mother is only a lifeless host.

Gwen Stefani – Long Way to Go Lyrics 20 years ago
hahaha it actually threw me off a little, as well, when i heard "it's beyond martin luther." now that i've heard the song more than once and know what the song's talking about, i know which one andre is talking about. this is a great song, though, despite its overall depressing message. let's not forget that although we have a long way to go, we've also come very far.

Nine Inch Nails – Beside You in Time Lyrics 20 years ago
When i listened to With Teeth, I was disappointed up until Beside You In Time came on. Trent restored my faith in NIN with this song. Right Where It Belongs follows it up so perfectly, and almost makes you forget about the disappointments in this album.

Oasis – Champagne Supernova Lyrics 21 years ago
I think the song to all of us has some kind of nostalgic value. I mean, from that explanation by Noel, he got the lyrics from the song from his own personal experiences, so I'm sure it brings back memories for him, as well. It does the same for me because I remember listening to it as a kid all the time and not knowing a thing about it (heh, remember how the radio stations would blank out the word "high?"). And a side note to all of those, including myself, who were desenheartened by Noel's explanation, I've always been taught that no matter what the artist's or poet's original intentions were for the song, it's up to us, the audience, to decide the interpretation and to delve deeper into the work. Much like nietzsche_66, I can't quite describe what the song means to me, but I definately know that I understand it.

Hilary Duff – Why Not Lyrics 22 years ago
I don't think this is one of her better songs. Most of her songs are more in depth.

I can't believe I like Hilary Duff. Oh well!

Nine Inch Nails – Starfuckers, Inc. Lyrics 23 years ago
I have a few comments for the lot of you:

1. I, too, think that markip wasn't joking.

2. Trent Reznor and Marilyn Manson were friends because Trent signed them, so basically Trent owns Marilyn. Trent would kick his ass.

3. This song is about stupid people. In cartoons, the characters, after being hit with anvils and the like, "see stars." He's trying to create an analogy of people who act stupid like they've been beaten over the head with something numerous times. Or, people are said to be "seeing stars" when they are in a constant dazy, or constantly acting dumb. Fuckers was added in to represent the constant obsession with being stupid. Incorporated describes how stupid people are all the same, almost like being manufactured.

I hope ive enlightened you with my words :)

The All-American Rejects – Swing, Swing Lyrics 23 years ago
Just because a band goes big time doesn't make them bad; you should be happy for them! Anyway, this song makes me dance and sing, which makes it worthy.

Nine Inch Nails – Closer Lyrics 23 years ago
I'm pretty sure that Closer is a song that is mostly an allegory about religion, as xmod2 stated earlier. This would explain the monkey tied to the cross in the movie. And to Emericanskater, you really need to appreciate art more, since the video was pure artistic genius.

I'm glad that you fixed the lyrics, because the first submission sounded like crap when you tried to sing it :-D! Thank you!

The Monkees – Daydream Believer Lyrics 23 years ago
I think that the daydream believer is Jean, not an ex girlfriend, since being with a homecoming queen seems too good to be true, or a dream.

heh...i just can't wait until some 7 year old girl hears the fully edited song on the radio, then goes and buys the CD. Mommy sure won't be happy.

Nine Inch Nails – Happiness in Slavery Lyrics 23 years ago
This song is insane...and i like it :). The video is quite disturbing, though, definately not for those who are weak of heart.
