i think ghost town is about brixton, which is like the ghetto of london. it gets crazy over there. it's kinda interesting to compare the two songs and their meanings. |

| Bob Dylan – Visions of Johanna Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
I think the song is about wanting something you can't have and everything around you reminds you of it.
1 Stanza- if you read over it, it's metaphors for emptiness: lights flickering in the opposite hall, the heat pipes are making noise, and the country music station. Country music is mostly sad and depressing; when he says there's nothing to turn off, he means there's nothing that he hasn't heard or felt for himself.
2 Stanza- The girls playing blindman's bluff is kind of like the women are just playing around with men without the men knowing it, so in a way they're blind. He refers to Louise as the mirror. When he looks at her, he see's his misery in her because she reminds him of Johanna. Electricy is powerful and something hard to explain. He can't really explain the look on Louise's face.
3 Stanza- He's talking to Johanna's boyfriend and everytime he mentions her to him he trys to change the subject. He's useless to him.
4 Stanza- the museum is his memories. Johanna makes his good times hurt to remember.
5 Stanza- People let go of the things they once loved, and it's upsetting. "The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain And these visions of Johanna are now all that remain." Music takes you anywhere you want to go and it controls the way you feel sometimes, but really the memory of Johanna is all that he has left.

holy buddha, way to think outside the box OS. I never would have thought that it was about a cocaine addiction. You're probably right because when you're on cocaine it sometimes causes you to lose your sight. Snowblind. |

ehh well, i think it's about he notices how America has grown up to be dominating. "Dressed in your jewels, you made your own rules. You conquored the world and more... heaven's door" Meaning America is better than the rest and it's so good that it's gone down hill because of the choices the government made to make it better.
None the less, it's one of my favorite songs. I really dig the way styx has the start slow, get heavy scheme. |

Yeah but i think that song isnt just about a girl. I think they say "she" as a metaphor for a drug. Just like some people refer marijuana as Mary Jane. So.. you know... |

| Eagles – In The City Lyrics

No comment on this one? Jeez...
The neon sky is refering to the glow of the street lights in the city. This song is one of the most beautiful ones I've ever heard in my life. It's about how the city isn't as pretty as it looks and how you miss the simple things in nature once you get caught up in it. It's pretty self explainitory if you read the lyrics. |

I totally disagree with gnr about Hotel California being their best song by far. Maybe their best album, but never their best song. They have TONS of profound soulful songs like The Last Resort, Try and Love Again, Wasted Time... the list goes on. |
