Hot Chip – Melody of Love Lyrics	4 years ago
I love that this song can fell happy and also feel sad - somehow at the same time. That is reflected in the video with the raw emotion on people's faces.

Sufjan Stevens – The Predatory Wasp of the Palisades Is Out to Get Us! Lyrics	15 years ago
I like how the "I can't explain the state that I'm in" line can have a second meaning, as the album is about characterizing the state of Illinois.

They Might Be Giants – Theme From Flood Lyrics	15 years ago
How did TMBG make a reference to the oceans rising in 1990? Unless they KNEW that it was going to happen. Clearly, the Johns are responsible for global warming. It is just basic science folks.

OutKast – Hey Ya! Lyrics	21 years ago
I don't mean this in a confrontational way, but I think it is ironic that rainbow said they don't care what the song is about. "Y'all don't want to hear me, you just want to dance." And I have to agree.

The Doors – Five to One Lyrics	21 years ago
What about the "love my girl" part? Any ideas on what that means? I hear the rebellion against older mainstream people w/ the "trade in your hours for a handful of dimes," line. However -even though- he says "no one here gets out alive" I have a hard time taking that literally.

The Sugarcubes – Birthday Lyrics	21 years ago
I like bjork a lot, but this song does weird me out. Is she condoning this? Is it an Icelandic thing? Basically the song is about a very young girl exploring sexuality from an innocent point of view.

Two turntables and a microphone, that would be uh phallic imagery -- right? Where it's at... well you decide.
