The song is about women and our penchant to take the blame and shut up when we should tell people to shut the fuck up, say what we mean and stop living this silent and complacent double life. |

This feels like it's a song about celebrity. We take what we want from them but the minute they fuck up and do something we don't like we discard them. More so with female celebrities. Or maybe it's about the standards that people set for us and we just never want what they want us to want or what they want us to do we never do right then people just give up and move on. |

I'm 95% sure that when she says "oh, my love..." it is the sexiest, sensual yet absolutely heartbreaking lyric. Only Annie can capture those sentiments so powerfully with three words. Putting a pearl in the ground means doing something risky with the best of intentions. Love is putting a pearl in the ground. It's scary but sometimes it works. |

| Counting Crows – Colorblind Lyrics
| 16 years ago
|
|
I have changed my mind about this song...It is about love. As an entity not about being in love...About how love takes all of these differing forms. That it is color blind and morphs into whatever form it can. It manifests itself in everything we do, our work, our freinds, our play It sneaks into ever aspect of what we do. The first verse is just talking about the form of love how it knows no bounds and the human need to show it to others to prove it exists. The second verse is how it manifests itself at "twitterpation" and sometimes nervous anticipation, "butterflies." The ultimate falling out of love were it is supressed once again, laying in wait to manifest itself in a differing fashion. Maybe towards a different person, place or thing, even feeling. |

Someone said this was about the paradoxes of life, it's true. You often don't appreciate someone you love until they're gone. You often don't appreciate life until something dies. You can't appreciate flying until you have sank. Love teaches you to lie in that it tricks your mind into thinking with your heart when we all know that is just a metaphor. It's about how life never really has a plan and sometimes the things you don't expect teach you the most, most of the time it's the opposite of what you expect. Like heartache teaches you how to love unconditionally. |

She said that she wrote this song on a whim walking down the street talking with mark ronson. she ended up writing the song about how she drinks because she constantly fucks up her relationships. So when her label told her to go to rehab they asked her why she tended to drink and she said because she fucked up in the relationship (my guess is she cheated) and her boyfriend was gonna find out and he was gonna find out so she decided to head off being sad by drinking a bunch. She also said they were going to make her fill out this questionaire that was going to take 40 minutes and she just got up and left, she didn't have the time. . |

she slept with a boy that looked like her current boyfriend when she was drunk but she is trying to explain that she just had sex with him and sex is sex, she didn't love him or even care about him and she thought about her current boyfriend the whole time. She is trying to tell him that her heart is still his when her body was the other dudes so it doesn't really count. Her love for her boyfriend and the fact that the other boy looked like him blinded her. |

this song is completely tongue in cheek. LIke all of the things that people say about being in love acn only be summed up that someone has their very own ringer on your cell phone. This song is about how people misconstrue love for simple like and infatuation. He's being ioncredibly sarcastic this whole song. All this stuff he's saying about her is purely superficial, she's probably just like the others but he doesn't see that just yet, but he knows he will so he's just enjoying her now. |

i think half of you are missing the point of this song. They lyrics are a 1950's or 60's etiquette book the only things taht aren't in this book are the chorus, i do believe it's actually called "the teeage guide to popularity." It's purely social commentary abot how we all strive to be the best at shit that doesn't really matter in the long run. It's completely tongue in cheek in the fact that all of this stuff is antiquated as hell yet true in so many ways. |

| Imogen Heap – Goodnight and Go Lyrics

It's about secreatly being in love with your best friend. That person that just knows you so well that it's just sickening but unfortunately when you are in love with him he's never in love with you and vice versa but you secretly burn for each other. He may even have a girlfriend that you pretend to like. This is the same friend that you get drunk with every now and then and end up making out with in a dark corner of a dimly lit bar then the next day have a very uncomfortable lunch and laugh about the night before while trying to read between the carefully chosen words used to explain your drunken encounter and gauge how he really feels about you. That is what this song is about. Or it could be her daydreaming about the cutie she sees in the coffee shop every couple days. |

| Imogen Heap – The Moment I Said It Lyrics
| 18 years ago
|
|
The arguments you hear in the backround are Imogen and her boyfriend recorded for the album. It's just about a relationship that is slowly falling apart at the seams as it comes to a head. Sounds like she suspects that from his distance that he is playing the field and when confronted with that it becomes a big issue about trust and things of that sort. He thinks she's freaking out for no reason but she loves him too much to let him go that easy. During the argument he becomes someone she's never seen before and it's slowly killing her inside. She wants him to be rational and he just wants her to stop being so needy but the whole reason for her codependence is she can feel him distancing himself from her little by little. It's the point in the argument when you know you've said too much but you just try to ge a reaction then it escalates from there into a shouting match before somone gives in and leaves. And the end of a relationship those are the fights that make you hate each other and leads to the break the lease move to opposite sides of the city then run into each other uncomfortably and wonder why you left each other in the first place. |

Simply. This song is about the desitegration of a ralationship then friendship and tension between a guy and a girl who are now "just friends" and the realization that they we never supposed to work out. Then there comes the time when they guy just changes to help himself get over her and she has no clue where the guy she was friends with went all there is left is this cold person. Upon arriving hope he realizes that he may have lost the most important part of his life. |

It's just about the regret of lost love, and the inevidble capsizing of most realtionships. It's filled with irony, so is the irony of realtionships, you don't know what you have or what you want until it is just out of your grasp, so is the irony of love. There are all of these things w go through in life that teach us these odd lessons about life. Death teaches us to live, confinement teaches us to be free. everyone feels that they are hovering just above crazy ayt some point in thir life and that there is a straw somewhere out there that will plunge you into crazy. He's saying that everyone feels like a failure and it's not that hard to fail at realtionships when you can't process or appreciate things until they are gone. |

He's the volcano, unpredictable and sudden. "don't hold yourself like that/ you'll hurt your knees, " refers to the common way people sit with their knees to their chests when they are angry. It seems like this guy is telling this girl that what he thinks they are and what she thinks they are are two different things because he won't allow himself to feel anything. He's telling her in the chorus over and over that she does not need him she does not need anything like him because it is pointless to build anything around a volacno because they just get burned along the way and the more she gives him the more she loves him.. the more he'll want just the opposite. Her reponse to him is.. not to be so honest with her, he threw his honesty up in her face like a wall, she thinks that he is just being honest to save her and she does not want/need to be saved, she wants so much more. In the end she's too much for him, she is just a phase for him but he needs her in a way that can't bee remedied. "but like a new disease, lord she's still too young to treat" doesn't refer to her age ..just the way she makes him feel, the wany she gets in his head like a disease but he can't treat it because he doesn't know how...she is dis disease without a cure and vice versa. |
