Rilo Kiley – Does He Love You? Lyrics 19 years ago
ok here is my interpretation:

the narrator was in love with the man first and the friend kind of stole him away from her. (maybe because the man cheated on the narrator with the friends and got her pregnant, maybe not) so the narrator moves to california to get away from the whole situation.

the narrator and the man still keep in touch. (he visits her, they call each other and send letters) they still love each other. he tells her that he will leave his wife one day, but she really doesn't believe him.

one day the friend calls the narrator to apologize for stealing her bf and confesses that she only married him because she "felt her time was running out." she also calls to tell her she knows about about the affair.

i do think the narrator is kinding giving her friend a slap in the face when she says "i am flawed if i'm not free" at the end of the song (just as the friend used to say). but she assures her that the friend's husband will not leave her. i think it's kind of the narrator's attempt to get back at the friend by saying "guess what? you may have married him, but he doesn't love you. and now you're stuck in this crappy fake marriage"

i don't think the narrator is talking to her friend directly until the lines "i guess it all worked out..."
i think the first two stanzas are the narrator talking to herself about how moving away to california is better than sticking around asking herself if the man loves her.

Interpol – A Time to Be So Small Lyrics 21 years ago
it's an original interpol song. it was on some of the first eps they ever released....then they did a second version and put it on antics

i like both versions a lot...can't decide which one is better....

Ambulance LTD – Anecdote Lyrics 21 years ago
i love this song :)

i have to agree with ThePython on this song being about heroin. especially the parts about shooting up ("administer the cure"), experiencing the drug ("fall back asleep and wonder down the street.."), and other people not understanding how amazing it really feels ("baby if you only knew, but i don't think you do")

the ending to this song maybe explains why this person uses the drug--because he/she is lonely...and doing the drug makes them happy and helps them forget about their loneliness...

i'm not really sure about the title of the song....maybe it's called anecdote just because it's a story. i mean most of it is in third person, so it's about somebody else...and that's all an anecdote really is, right? a story or incident...?
