| Sufjan Stevens – He Woke Me Up Again Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| This song he said described the night his father woke up the family and told them they would be (some religion)...I think it was catholicism but I don't remember. | |

Tadzio is the name of a boy a man falls in love with in the book "Death in Venice" by Thomas man. It is the only connection I can see. Funny how I just got up from reading that book to see these lyrics. Maybe they arne't related at all. |

| Elbow – Powder Blue Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
Well, Ali, that is very interesting. I never saw it that way before. I always saw the car crash angle. But, in response to archagon , there are many reasons to believe the car crash idea. A) Turn this song all the way up at the end. What do you hear? Cars. Cars on a raining road. A lot of songs on the cd have things on the end. B) There are those loud noises near the end, I believe it is a harmonica but I'm not sure. It reminds me of car horns everytime. C) "Powder Blue" I always thought referred to the windshield. Powdered blue..glass. But I can see it in a whole new light (assuming that quote is real). And in response to DreamsofInsomnia, I wouldn't call that obvious at all. Someone dying...especially with "shakes"...it is easy to imagine them being pale and white. China (as in plates) is white. |

| Weird Al Yankovic – Smells Like Nirvana Lyrics | 22 years ago |
| Great. I may be the only one who finds Nirvana incoherent and stupid. Their lyrics don't make sense and the music doesn't sound that great either. | |
| Weird Al Yankovic – Headline News Lyrics | 22 years ago |
