Sublime – Badfish Lyrics 18 years ago
I really don't see this song being JUST about drug addiction. Yea, it's obvious that he's talking about his dependence on drugs/alcohol, but I think the song is more about Brad trying to find a connection with somebody who's in the same situation, who can kind of share in his pain.

My favorite line:
"Two pints of booze
Tell me, are you a badfish too?"

Anyway, that's just my opinion. This is a fuckin great song no matter what it means to you.

The White Stripes – Little Ghost Lyrics 19 years ago
I'm almost embarrassed for myself for loving this song so much. It sounds so country!
About the voices, I think it kinda sounds like Jack high pitched + Jack low pitched + Meg.

Also, (and this will be the dumbest comment ever) . . . everytime I listen to this song, I get like this image in my head of like Jack and Meg singing in a barn with like a little dog jumping around in piles of hay.
Yea.

The White Stripes – You've Got Her In Your Pocket Lyrics 19 years ago
O i love this song! Definitely one of their absolute best. There are two parts that just kill me everytime i listen to it.

'And you'll be there if she ever feels blue
And you'll be there when she finds someone new'
and
'You search in your hand for something clever to say
Don't go away'

*sniffle*

The White Stripes – Girl, You Have No Faith in Medicine Lyrics 19 years ago
On the part where it sounds like he is going to say another line but but doesn't, it used to be
"I don't have the patience to watch you battle every miniscule disease"
but Jack thought it was too harsh, so he took it out.

He also said that the song is about how with girls, there is such a big fuss over everything and how they are so particular about things. Like a woman would say something like "Oh I won't take Tylenol, it doesn't work for me," but a guy would just take and swallow whatever's handed to him.

(This is all from whitestripes.net just so you don't think i'm just pulling this out my ass.)

The White Stripes – Blue Orchid Lyrics 19 years ago
I was looking up "blue orchid" on google and found a bunch of articles about "The Blue Orchid Case" which was an investigation and arrest of a group of Russians involved in this worldwide child pornography ring. "blue orchid" was the name of their website.

I don't completely get how the lyrics work into this but it seems like something Jack would care about because of his whole interest in childhood innocence.

The "you took a white orchid and turned it blue" would make sense meaning the child is pure and these people abused them and left them 'blue' or mentally disturbed for the rest of their lives.

Foo Fighters – Everlong Lyrics 19 years ago
Now that I've read other ppl's interpretations, I think the sex/virginity/love song meaning makes a lot of sense.
Listening to it on my own, I never even thought of that. It always sounded like it was written about Kurt's death (and I'm not one of those dipshits who thinks EVERY song by NIRVANA or Foo Fighters is about his death). There's like 2 other people who thought it, too, so it's not just me. But, i don't think any of it has to do with Dave using heroin because i know he was never into that.

The whole song (minus the 'she' parts) sounds like it's about Kurt Cobain:

Hello
I've waited here for you
Everlong

-I always thought that sounded like him seeing Kurt again in heaven (it sounds kinda corny, but still).


And I wonder
When I sing along with you
If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again
The only thing I'll ever ask of you
Gotta promise not to stop when I say, when.

-Definitely sounds like he's looking back at being in NIRVANA and remembering the feeling of being part of something that huge and real. He knows he will never have that chance again.


Slow how
You wanted it to be
I'm over my head, out of her head, she sang

-Cobain hated the constant attention and publicity. When they became way too famous way too fast, it was too much to take ("in over my head"). He was mentally unstable ("out of her head").

Breath out
So I can breathe you in
Hold you in

-Makes me think of Dave seeing Kurt's dead body and wanting him to breathe and be alive again. He wants to be with him again.

And now
I know you've always been
Out of your head, out of my head, I sang

-(Even though I know Kurt Cobain didn't kill himself) I think Dave realized how many problems Kurt had and how much he suffered during his lifetime. He was "out of his head" and Dave, realizing this, goes "out of his head" as it hits him that he will never see his friend again.

Billy Joel – We Didn't Start the Fire Lyrics 19 years ago
There's a character on Late Night with Conan O'Brian called "Cactus Chef Playing 'We Didn't Start the Fire' on a Flute" which is basically a fake cactus wearing chef hat that plays this song on flute. It sounds really dumb but I almost died laughing the first time i saw it.

Billy Joel – Only The Good Die Young Lyrics 19 years ago

HILARIOUS. For anyone who didn't know before, it was made as a parody of "The Sunscreen Song" from a few years earlier.

Simon and Garfunkel – Cecilia Lyrics 19 years ago
Even though it makes the song seem more shallow and typical, I kind of like the 'love story' interpretation better. It makes the song much sweeter that way.

submissions
The White Stripes – Blue Orchid Lyrics 19 years ago
I thought he was saying "you tickled my orchid" too!

I agree that it has to do with the Jason Stollsteimer thing but I think he's also talking about all the other people starting controversy with him just to get publicity, like Ryan Adams and that guy that released that White Stripes DVD without their permission.

Green Day – Sassafras Roots Lyrics 19 years ago
This is the sweetest song ever. fishguts, i wish i had a boyfriend sing this to me!

anyway, it was called Sassafras Roots bc BJ couldn't think of a name for it so he turned to mike or somebody n asked to make up a song name n he was like "umm. . .sassafras roots?" so that's what he called it.

Green Day – Having a Blast Lyrics 19 years ago
yea i think a few ppl already said this but the song is definitely about suicide + mass homicide; taking everybody down with you. basically a suicide bombing which wasn't something people really talked about then. but think about how fuckin hilarious it would be if this song were released like now, after 9-11. people would freak haha.
I also love the way that, until u really pay attention to the lyrics, this just seems like a nice little song because its so upbeat. green day has always had a way of doing that. this song is like the perfect example.

Holy shit. i saw Green Day live LAST NIGHT and i can't fuckin get over it. Even though this isnt my absolute fav green day song it is BY FAR the best song i've ever seen live. They dragged this this one for a while n billie joe was messin with the crowd while mike n tre kept loopin that riff it was fuckin beautiful!
They also did a cover of "We Are the Champions" which was completely unexpected but amazing.

**BILLIE JOE ARMSTRONG IS THE HOTTEST

OK Go – Get Over It Lyrics 19 years ago
i agree, awesome song. the verses kick ass, but chorus is really shitty. i can't believe im the first one to say that but, hey, maybe it's just me.

also, i know this song is just for fun and doesn't really call for interpretation but did anybody else notice that the 3 verses kinda go in the order of life?

Like the first verse is kinda of like being a kid and whining about scrapes and knotty hair. Then the second one says

"Makes you sick, makes you ill,
makes you cheat"

like its about being stupid getting horribly drunk as a teenager. And then the last verse is like adulthood n getting married and divorced n stuff.

But again, maybe it's just me.
