| Led Zeppelin – The Battle of Evermore Lyrics | 6 years ago |
| @[Usernome:29655] @[loveofluana:29656] - "Galadriel did not have a bow" It's not a bow that you shoot arrows from - she bowed (verb meaning to incline your head in a respectful manner - often when taking your leave of someone with a higher rank than you). | |

@[TMiller68:28087] Yes. I never bothered to try to find out what that line about marigolds as about until today. I did a bit of googling and found - https://www.webmd.com/vitamins/ai/ingredientmono-235/calendula Calendula is applied to the skin to reduce pain and swelling (It is thought that the chemicals in calendula help new tissue grow in wounds and decrease swelling in the mouth and throat.) Don’t confuse calendula with ornamental marigolds of the Tagets genus, which are commonly grown in vegetable gardens. |

@[CaullyFlower26:28086] I think you've cracked it. Other interpretations fit to some extent but every line works with your interpretation. eg - throw back the little ones (get rid of half written or unoriginal songs) Pan fry the big ones (use the best musicians and production techniques) This is probably my least favourite Dan song - but now that the lyrics make sense to me, I'll listen with renewed interest. |
