Yendri – Just hurt me Lyrics

A song about either verbal or physical abuse, I'm not really sure which because the lyrics are not specific. |

Phantogram – All Dried Up Lyrics

A warm, sad song about love lost. Although through her physical and mental paralysis, she's still running, still living. There is light at the end of the tunnel. |

De/Vision – Try To Forget Lyrics
| 14 years ago
|
A simple straightforward song about an unfortunate situation featuring two people recently broken up. On one side she tries to forget him by going out with other men, partying, discovering new things, new experiences but realizes that it's not the same. She comes home alone at night (or not) depending on the situation, and still she thinks about the time she was loved. She thinks about him but tries to forget, does anything to forget until finally she succeeds. She fights all attempts to reconnect with her passed love... she wins. But she will never know how he felt about it. A cold feeling grows in her heart as she slowly grows emotionally stronger. Forgetting is now easy. The passed is now erased, memory faded and now gone. |

Bryan Ferry – Don't Stop The Dance Lyrics
| 14 years ago
|
I told my wife that Bryan Ferry would be Jarvis Cocker's father because he's so cool and nonchalant. Showing pure class and style, this song really shows it.
Now about the lyrics, the message relays a simple idea. And that is that mother was always right about life's curveballs. Simple yet effective and that's why I love it.

Pet Shop Boys – The Way It Used To Be Lyrics
| 14 years ago
|
Two lovers that were in a long distance relationship a long time ago. One is lonely in New York City while the other is across the U.S. in Los Angeles (Culver City). The person in New York still longs for the other – thinking about the good times they had together and yet after all this time still has strong feelings. There is thought about letting it just go and leave it in the past, (water under the bridge) but perhaps should investigate if there is still something there, something left. Then nostalgia creeps in, due to person's memories which has helped keep sane throughout the years has therefore brought that action should be taken. As of result, thus, one would attempt and arrange to meet the other anywhere if permitted. Sort of to say that I'd drop whatever is going on in my life just to meet with you again. Forget the past, let's start again, everything shiny and new. Although noting that will never happen again because what remains in time may not have faded away but instead stuck in the depths of the person's memories. |

Electronic – Dark Angel Lyrics
| 15 years ago
|
This song represents life in an emotional state of limbo where one is unsure of what's going to happen next; prominent at the end of common relationships. She or he pretends to be strong and independent – ignoring the pain, suffering and pulling through discomfort. One week after break-up or so, rumors fly around but one is left with denial instead. Suck it up. One will ask "What to they know about us?". They know more than what you think.
Things only get worse as time unfurls. I believe that Bernard explains that waiting in front of someone, asking to be loved is unbearable, especially when the other party doesn't feel the same way. Things will change, don't expect anything to be the same... someone will hurt the other and sadly that's how it goes.
P.s. If you're reading this... I think you know who you are... I still remember what you told me about this song and how I made you go through that then. I'm sorry. |

Belanova – Niño Lyrics
| 15 years ago
|
There's an undertone of her liberation from her lover. First, the song is set in a happy-go-synth 140 bpm disposition and take note, it is also danceable. This portrays a point of view in which she's relieved that she's no longer with someone who isn't satisfying her life and thus explains why she must depart. Second, the song's tone itself denotes a cheerful, cheeky, jubilant atmosphere. Listen at the end of the song as she sings out loud "Oooooooooooh, oooooooh". She's happy and feels little feelings, remorse for her decision. "Shit, that's how life goes. Sorry dude!". |

After hearing this for the first time in 1997 I asked why Gillian didnt do more singing before in New Order albums? I would have not mind one or two songs the way Martin Gore does for Depeche Mode. |

M83 – Graveyard Girl Lyrics
| 16 years ago
|
These lyrics are pretentious and quite cliché. Don't get me wrong, I like the music but I'm not turned on by the words. There is nothing smart nor compelling about the message. Specially the soliloquy in the bridge which sounds absolutely fake and over-reacting. "Waiting for someone to kiss me"? Please! "I feel it's already too late to live" WHAT? Did I miss something here? Gawd! So pretentious! |

Catchy Euro-Pop-80s-Tune. I only tried this cause she's the voice of Enigma. I like the song. Meh... but the song lyrics are just stupid, they don't make sense. |

New Order – Sooner Than You Think Lyrics
| 16 years ago
|
Great song. Unfortunate message. Nostalgia, hits me in a spot I've tried to get over for the past 6 years and counting; so when I hear the words "Oh, you know what I mean, yes you do", it hits too close to home. Although, here I am writing about it, listening to it, God only knows if I will ever learn. |

Electronic – Disappointed Lyrics
| 16 years ago
|
A simple song about stories of frustration, rejection and ultimately found-love.
The author talks about being disappointed with past lovers who have disenchanted, disillusioned and thus desecrated a compromised point of view of relationships; but now through the magic of "love" has found someone who in all wonders does the opposite.
The data is presented to match many current relationships today. Nothing new. A view where you initially date a person permissible of mistakes, disappointments, and infidelity in order to learn. Sometimes it's not asked for. You have been part of both parties therefore, the data is quite appealing to human nature. |

Depeche Mode – World Full Of Nothing Lyrics
| 16 years ago
|
After years of listening... thousands of plays it hits me because I bi-passed the lyrics, because I wasn't mature enough? The feeling is still there... and it scratches through nostalgia. Its simplicity it's rather put well. I agree with everyone here about "first sexual encounter". It is an empty, bitter, hollow... magnificent feeling.
"Though it's not love, it means something"
Great line. I will always remember the first person and there is nothing I can do about it, although in my case it never meant anything. |

Pet Shop Boys – Integral Lyrics

Easy. A song about promotion of comforming with the war on terrorism. Easily said as "if you have done nothing wrong, then you have nothing to fear" so thus, give up your rights because you are safe.
WRONG!
This is promoting the New World Order proven by the lyrics
Everyone has
Their own number -- Social Security Number or 666 soon to come.
In the system that
We operate under - Government
We're moving to
A situation
Where your lives exist
As information -- The loss of our privacy
One world - New World Order
One life
One chance - 9/11
One reason
All under
One sky
Unchanging
One season
Unmistaken. |

Supertramp – Fool's Overture Lyrics

As I listen to Fool's Overture for the first time, the middle was what catch my attention. It was so serene... and mellow. I'm into that... Pink Floyd Prog Rock style. I didn't pay attention to the lyrics until I rewound over many times and started really listening. They are amazing. This kind of music will seldom happen again. Musicians that really meant what they said. Yes, I do catch the Jesus Christ resemblance in the end before he died. I also catch WWII remarks. The island is sinking (could it be England)? This middle part is just perfect. |

B-Movie – Nowhere Girl Lyrics

Well i'm first to comment on a song that is a classic 80's hit. However not too well-known, is it contradictory to say that this song is a well known obscure song? At the clubs... one crowd favourite. The lyrics are self explanatory. Great song from an unknown band. I wish they put out more song of this caliber. |

Yea, it does feel weird listening to it in 2006. All the plans in the past faded away by the years... poor Jarvis. Deborah what a bitch, he loved her so and she went off and got married and had a baby to stab the last knife in the back. |

Mercury Rev – Across Yer Ocean Lyrics

Anne gave me a cd with lots of bands and this one song caught my attention. The lyrics are great to sing to...the rhyming and play of words. I think i've heard this song too many times but still havent gotten tired of it. As to the meaning of this song:
Infidelity, some kind of shame or adultery or betrayal as to portray thoughts inside that are hard to confess. However, to the hope of the other lover is to make them understand and ask for indirect forgiveness. |
