Keane – Is It Any Wonder? Lyrics 2 months ago
What???

Is all the debate!

It's purely Toxic Relationship!

I guess, in common with a lot of songwriting, it can be made to fit whatever the listener finds appropriate. That's the baseline skill of any accomplished writing...you catch more that way. However, as anyone who has been through a miserable episode like it will empathise...it is Toxic Relationship, where someone is trying...and someone else is manipulating...and isn't!

MGMT – Time to Pretend Lyrics 8 months ago
It's about the futility and stupidity of celebrity. What? ...what more? Personally I see Celebrities as dicks. All the wealth available to enjoy life to its fullest and they wind up like...Pretend. Twats.

It's beautiful, I'll love it forever, Kids and Electric... it's part of my soundtrack.

Phil Collins – Don't Lose My Number Lyrics 9 months ago
Gang related? Billy's had enough, bins off one of them. That winds him up, on the run, from the scum and the scum in uniforms. Everyone knows he was provoked but "The Law Is The Law".

That's the skill of the best songwriter. Drag a bunch of lines and themes that will strike chords to as many folk as possible.

Find stuff that sounds good. Wrap it in some catchy tunes and bingo! It's a thing! To as many pilgrims as possible....and that fills the bank at the end of the month.

I still like it.

Garbage – Happy Home Lyrics 1 year ago
@[SquidBrandon:50540] With regret...

I think you're correct.

I love this track...love it....and...Hate it.

Why?

Because you're correct. That's the take on the content I share. I wanted suicide or illness so badly but I don't think it's there.

I adore, the melody, the musicality and the passion. The SIZE of it.

But....

I loathe gutless cheats. Always have, always will. I cannot abide folk who have their cake and eat it too.

If you're unhappy, grow some and walk out. Then fix your life, as is your right. You do not have any right to jerk other folk off.

The song...is spanking.

Gary Numan – I'm An Agent Lyrics 1 year ago
Banging Earworm.

I concur entirely with m'Learn'd colleague Mansion's assessment.

It is, for me, the chaos of a troubled mind.

Troubled by being 'an Agent'? We've all met 'em.

Folk who fantasise that the are in charge of some 'situation'... Like their lives...for example. Usually supported by a drink or substance problem.

Busy? Yes. Stressed? Yes. Enjoying The Fruits of Their Labours? Possibly. Coping? Not. Crashing? Yep, slowly. I think that's Gazzas point.

Creed – Higher Lyrics 2 years ago
Like most of stuff that's written, your take on it is how you get it?

For me this little ditty is about the crap we all go through and suffer to make a living happen for ourselves and people we love.

And it's absolutely goddam enormous for that purpose, Efukinnormous.

Tears for Fears – Woman In Chains Lyrics 3 years ago
I think it's shares a commonality with a lot of songs. Your interpretation depends on your understanding and experience. So it captivates a lot of us. Like a lot of people it's pretty, clever and just plain beautiful. A great many aren't any of those things though and sad truth is generally people are getting worse...not better. Too thick to learn.

Mike Oldfield – Sheba Lyrics 3 years ago
Wikipedia describes as a bunch of vocalisations to the track. They're pretty in an arty f rty way. Like a foreign language. Knowing Mr Oldfield that's probably the intention...a musical ...Piece.

That'll do for me donkey. It's melodic and catchy. If you don't like it don't listen to it...but you'll miss out on that guitar. Your choice.

Anyway, what else should it do? A flowery dance too!

Manic Street Preachers – Born To End Lyrics 3 years ago
Socialists methinks...social conscience.

I don't think we mean Communist. That's as fukstoopid as Fascism.

I don't think they're silly.

Evanescence – My Immortal Lyrics 3 years ago
..and...

It's a format. Like many songs. It's carefully crafted to fit many empathies.

It's about the caustic nature of a relationship between someone who deeply loves a junkie, lush, abusive partner or child etc.

How long can you stand by and watch someone you love destroy themselves...before it destroys you?

Then there's the colossal pain of realising you must walk away too.

Heavy, heavy shit.

Evanescence – My Immortal Lyrics 3 years ago
How does Amy keep her shit together performing it!

I have to be careful about when I just listen to it...because in the early hours the bugger comes creeping into your head while your trying to sleep. It's scary in daylight...it's fukin eNormous in the dark.

How the hell does she do it?

Silversun Pickups – Rusted Wheel Lyrics 3 years ago
I thought I read somewhere it was about someone stuck in a situation. One they cannot escape, like paralysis...hence the rusted wheel stuck in the ground, observed and poetically noted for its similarity to such a situation. A terrifying pathos ..if that\'s true.

Genesis – Fading Lights Lyrics 4 years ago
Way past too powerful for me. A beautiful song...like most of the album. Some folks lives however get just too parallel though to bear to hear it all.

OneRepublic – Stop and Stare Lyrics 4 years ago
I think last dodo is correct. It's about someone dragging up the courage to leave a situation fearful of what that may cause to others or their self. I don't think ( hope) it's as dark as others find it. It's a beautiful song but pulls too many chains for me.

Well he did. Because we don't all think with our trousers. A minority maybe but so are women who recognise and value us these days. All our grandmother's ever would have wanted. An equality worth fighting for...and keeping. Which ...we don't.

Silversun Pickups – The Royal We Lyrics 7 years ago
I'll tell you guys something, nasty.

As a parent of a child with Cystic Fibrosis this little ditty fits every single day The RoyalUs has lived with 'It'.

Every syllable, every sentence, every phrase....fits.

I kinda know it has nothing to do with it for sure...buts it fits, all of it.
