Pitty – Equalize Lyrics 18 years ago
I have a translation for anyone who doesn't speak Brazilian/Portugese:

If I sometimes get distracted
If I'm not careful for a second
I transport my self closer to you
I just can't be left on my own
That smell soon comes to me
That comes from you to me
In a perfect flux
While you talk and kiss me
At the same time I see
Your colors in your eyes close
I swing slowly
Like when you rock me
The rhythm goes easily
As if it was rehearsed

And I think I really like you
Just the way you are

I'm going to equalize you
In a frequency only know by us
I turned you into this song
So I can record you on me

I love this sleepy face of yours
And your voice timbre
That tells me really crazy things
And nearly makes me laugh to death
When you try to convince me
That I only stayed here
cause we're both one of a kind
It's like you've already had
My manual of instructions
Because you descover my dreams
Because you know what I like
And cause when you hold me
The world spins slowly
And time is just mine
And nobody captures the scene
Suddenly it turns into a
Whole slow motion movie

And I think I really like you
Just the way you are

I'm going to equalize you
In a frequency only know by us
I turned you into this song
So I can record you on me

I'm going to equalize you
In a frequency only know by us
I turned you into this song
So I can record you on me

All About Soul refers to the purity of heart and the unwillingness to go down emotionally.

Billy Joel – A Minor Variation Lyrics 18 years ago
My interpretation is that Billy Joel is saying that the difference between moods weather very happy or really down, like the speaker in this song, is only a minor variation. He is saying that your always yourself but your mood is what varies; so, if the speaker doesn't seem like himself it not a complete change but just a minor variation.

Peter Gabriel – Shock The Monkey Lyrics 18 years ago
As always I look at lyrics in a poetic sense; so this is my analysis of the symbolisms.

I think that the monkey is a symbol for the basic mamalian self and the hedonistic desires. The shocking of the monkey represents multiple things: first the shock is the semi-literal sence of electricution (semi-literal, meaning that the humanity hates and hurts itself for taking part in hedonistic behaviors). Another meaning for shock is for the surprise that the "monkey" feels when it finds that it's needs are not being met in the culture.


Hedonism: an ethical system that evaluates the pursuit of pleasure as the highest good.

so technically the idea that the song is about masterbation fits into the symbalism.

Bruce Springsteen – Secret Garden Lyrics 18 years ago
What I find really funney is that most people associate this song with the movie Jerry Maguire and think that the song is about themes similar to the movie despite the fact that the song was around years before the movie. The song is about a PROSTITUTE.

Read the lyrics, it's obvious. see how the lyrics describe her.

She'll let you in her house
If you come knockin' late at night

(even if you come over late she'll let you in to her house.)

She'll let you in her mouth
If the words you say are right

(If you ask nicely you can have a BJ)

If you pay the price
She'll let you deep inside.

(Self-explanitory)

But there's a secret garden she hides

(But you won't get her love)

Come on ppl The Boss always hides a secret message in his songs why should this one be different.

Its about the strong desires to be with some one that the speaker cannot be with (and the difficulty of ignoring them).

Billy Joel – Travelin' Prayer Lyrics 19 years ago
This is an interesting Billy Joel song, it has a bluegrass feel to it; it is one of my favorite BJ songs, most people only know 2 or 3 songs from his Piano Man album but if you listen to it from begining to end it is a marvolous album and this song is a wonderful start. The topic of this perticular song is that of a traveler who's prayers are not for his own safety and help along his route but for his Baby.

Mudvayne – Coal Lyrics 19 years ago
I think this song is about someone who has been through someting traggic (probable attacked physicaly or emotionaly or both). The person know feels as though they can not express them selves; "My soul simply won't bleed". They also feel themselves unable to handle their life;"I lay awake at night my body trembles, wrapped with vines, each tie that binds represents another dream demise. Oh fuck! I need a handle in my life, I know that there is no esacape for me."

Pitty – Admiravel Chip Novo Lyrics 19 years ago
4 things:

1. Some lyrics need to be added to the end:

"Não senhor, Sim senhor, Não senhor, Sim senhor

Mais la vem eles novamente eu sei que vou fazer reinstalar o sistema."

2. I can't believe know one else posted anything. Pitty is Fucking awsome. I know songs in languages other then english don't appeal to many people but this song is great even if you don't know what is being said.

3. The best translation I could do (sorry if it's incorrect, I'm not fluent yet):

In the system somebody disconfigured me
Where are my robot eyes?
I am not a wise person, I had not perceived (that I was)
I always found that it was alive
Screws and fluid in place of a joint
Until it was found that here beats a heart
Nothing is organic, it is all programmed
And I finding this, I was freed
But here they come again and I know what I go to make:
To reinstall the system:

Think! Speak! Buy! Drink!
Read! Vote, don’t forget!
Use! Do! Hear! Say!
Have! Live! Like and live!

No Sir, Yes Sir, No Sir, Yes Sir

They come again, and know that I go to make and to reinstall the system.

4. This song is about how the government wants everybody to be robot like and do as commanded. And how some people try to resist.

Mudvayne – Silence Lyrics 19 years ago
I agree that it is about cencership, but I also think it's about the media in general. For example the lines:

"We're not buying your product but you sell it to us preaching silence!
Insult me in my home
Where you were never invited "

to me seem to be about advertising.

Nirvana – Breed Lyrics 19 years ago
"We don't have to breed
We can plant a house
We can build a tree
I don't even care
We can have all three"

Nobody on this sight seems to get these lyrics so from an English Education Major's these lyrics, like all of Nirvana's is very symbolic. Planting a house means starting a family. By saying that your planting a house it's a way of saying that the house or family as a house is a living, breathing, and growing thing. Building a tree on the hand feeds off of the era in which the song was written in which all was about technology, so building a tree is a way of saying that every thing is being produced for finacial gain, even nature is being manufactured. The lyrics are presented in such a way as that the writer is at a crossroads in his life and he can't chose a direction. The lyrics are filled with the words "she said" which leads me to feel as though the undiciding man is being pushed by a female, be it a girlfried, a wife, a mother, or just a friend, to make this dicision. The desision is whether he wants to Plant a house, Build a tree or all three. In my oppinion the third choice is "We don't have to breed." Which means that he could chose not to start a family (plant a house) or buy into the finacial gain of building a tree.
