| Iron Maiden – Powerslave Lyrics | 23 years ago |

it's not about the pharaoh, it's about the cycle of the world and the creation myth as in ancient egyptian religion. maybe the pharaoh factors in somehow but he himself is not the powerslave it's like, i dunno, horrus or someone like that |

| Iron Maiden – Infinite Dreams Lyrics | 23 years ago |
|
i hate to make such a moronic comment, but this is simply the greatest song of all time, and it will be played at my funeral as they lower my casket into the earth. it just seems to be a postulative wanderlust as undertaken by somebody plagued by horrible dreams which may either be horrible due to their nightmarishness, or because of the dreamer seeing truths about the universe and starting to find themselves inadequately prepared for what the is out there, what they've tapped into. |

| The Cure – To Wish Impossible Things Lyrics | 23 years ago |
|
i always wish impossible things in my life's relationship cycle i make a close female friend and because i'm not attractive and she's always the kind i dig (the kind who need a looker) i never have the confidence to act on my feelings when the time is right, and then long after, i say what i feel but it's hopeless, by that point it's never going to be a relationship (because she knows too much about me). and every time i lose my best friend, and every time i fail to nab the nookie so i always resign myself only To Wish Impossible Things it's my themesong after all |

| Primus – The Thing That Should Not Be (Metallica cover) Lyrics | 23 years ago |
|
oh come on you idiots this song is about The Greatest Lord Of Chaos and Lord Of The Old Ones, Cthulu of R'lyeh! even a casual Lovecraft fan would realise this it speaks of cthulu rising and the subversive insanity that will consume humanity as this happens. oh and "not dead which eternal lie" in full is "That is not dead, which can eternal lie. Yet come strange aeons even Death may die" which is one of lovecraft's more famous pieces of poetry (it even apopears on the tombstone of Edward T. Head on Iron Maiden's World Slavery Tour double-disc album, Live After Death as Eddie's epitath) which means two things in the one poem. Firstly it means that in billions of aeons all humans will become again living, and experience nothing but a short blank of a couple of billion years which felt like a five minute nap (whether through molecular sciences or cyber-neuronets is not to be questioned owing to it's irrellevancy), and also the mystical side of raising the dead, with which Lovecraft was more concerned. Metallica did a great tribute to lovecraftian lore in writing this song however i love Primus' interpretation with all my body (including my pee-pee) because of their unique sound and musical coordination. |
