Yeah Yeah Yeahs – Y Control Lyrics 19 years ago
i agree mostly with smurk. i think this song is about how an encounter with a male in her past changed her, made her feel like she had to be in the one in control in every relationship. she's constantly leaving them, and i think ''you walk my winners'' is her speaking specifically to her need to control (Y control personified), saying that's the reason why her ''winners'' walk (the ''keepers,'' referring to the guys she dates that she should have stayed with). the music video is definitely referring to that loss of innocence that the speaker of the song experienced that made her that way in the first place. awesome song.

The Cure – Cut Here Lyrics 19 years ago
this is one of the saddest songs i've ever heard. the first time i heard it, i heard the lyrics just as clearly as i heard the music, and i felt like i could relate even though i couldn't. it just really hit me. i guess that's the magic of the cure.

Depeche Mode – But Not Tonight Lyrics 19 years ago
does anybody have any idea what he might be referring to when he talks about his red eyes? maybe just crying? maybe something else?

this song is so incredible and it means so much to me because of how optimistic it is, it's probably my favorite song by depeche mode (if not all around, at least lyrically). nobody can explain those moments when they just feel like they fit in the world, for no apparent reason. it could have been a bad day in general, it could be RAINING, and it doesn't matter because it's moments like these that really put things into perspective.

Depeche Mode – Waiting for the Night Lyrics 19 years ago
i agree with catawhompus. he seems like he is close to death, and death seems more pleasant to him than living. basically, this verse:

"And angels appeared to descend
To my surprise
With half-closed eyes
Things looked even better
Than when they were opened"

the next verse:
''NOW everything is bearable''

so he died. that's how i interpret it.

The Faint – Enola Gay (Orchestral Manoeuvers in the Dark cover) Lyrics 19 years ago
this song is most likely just a straightforward song about the plane enola gay and the bombing of hiroshima. i like both versions of the song, but i prefer OMD's version.

New Order – Blue Monday Lyrics 19 years ago
i think callinite is right on because the original title of this song is ''the beach,'' and it just makes the most sense. everyone keeps talking about ''the guy is whipped, etc, etc,'' you can interpret it as fascism-related. and who cares how many times someone posts something. we're talking about a song, read it over again.

New Order – Bizarre Love Triangle Lyrics 19 years ago
i feel a bit embarrassed being the first to even be saying this, but does anybody else think this song is FULL of homosexuality? i mean not necessarily saying NEW ORDER is gay, but it could even be their feelings on the decade of the AIDS scare, the 80s.

''It's no problem of mine
But it's a problem I find
Living a life that I can't leave behind..."
(it's not wrong to be gay, but that was the way he has been brought up, that's what he was taught, making it even harder for him to accept his homosexuality. so he could also be commenting on how society feels about homosexuality)

''And it's what nobody knows
well every day my confusion grows''
(again, being confused about his sexuality. he is not out of the closet yet.)

''Every time I see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray''
(this is where your red light should be flashing. nobody else even touched this line. SEXUAL IMPLICATIONS GALORE!)

''I feel fine and I feel good
I'm feeling like I never should''
(he is happier and more satisfied because he faces the truth when he is with the man. but he feels like he ''never should'' is more commentary on how society's treatment towards homosexuals.)

''Whenever I get this way
I just don't know what to say
Why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday?''

i think he is commenting on the previous line ''i'm feeling like i never should'' should be in quotations, he's wondering why he just can't BE with the guy, and he wishes there weren't any complications.

and lastly, i'd like to comment on the title of the song. mainly the reason i don't think i'm looking too deeply into the meaning as a whole is because it's a BIZARRE love triange, BIZARRE. get it?

Rx Bandits – Pal-Treaux Lyrics 20 years ago
this is my favorite song on the resignation. it was my anthem during a breakup, so i interpreted it as a bittersweet breakup song. (''i'll wait for the next one, looks like our time here is done.....'' ''it hurts so much to lose completely''). i think it's letting go of someone because you don't want to be a slave to the pain? and you know that you don't need to feel that way just because somebody left you.

does anyone know what ''pal-treaux'' means?
