| Asobi Seksu – Thursday Lyrics

|
this is a wonderful song with very bittersweet lyrics about remembrance and longing in a detached mannerism... kind of cure-ish in it's context.
yuki sings it so beautifully too. |

| Morrissey – Let Me Kiss You Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
if you don't know what this song is about, then you shouldn't be listening to morrissey in the first place.
i mean come on... it's all about his self-deprecating and introspective point of views... he'd probably never ask a girl to kiss him, but here he uses this to further emphasize his miserablism. |

| Morrissey – Sing Your Life Lyrics

|
|
i am POSITIVE morrissey would never direct a song with such grandeur to people at karaoke bars, this reflects on self-expression and those who are awkward at doing so, he's giving it all a musica accent by mentioning "walk up to the microphone" and "sing on-key"... that is all. |

fantastic song... about a girl who he likes but at the same, doesn't really mean much to him... lovely melody he sings in during the verses though. |

| Suede – New Generation Lyrics

no comments on this fantastic song?
hm, now to the meaning... i think all Suede songs follow a common theme, a pattern if you will, and that is one neverending tale of detached lovers, drug use, sensual bliss and social despair. |

| The Ronettes – Be My Baby Lyrics

|
while the lyrics aren't necessarily a literary masterpiece, the emotionally rough voice in which ronnie sings this gem truly makes it one of my all time favourite 60s records... definitely a song that has stood the test of time in an immaculate manner. |

This song was originally titled "Anyone Can Play The Glockenspiel If Properly Taught, Really", but then they decided to rename it to something more akin to the Kurt Cobain fankids. |

|
This song is about the time Jonny got stopped going over 10 KMH in a Vespa somewhere near Madrid, the spaniard policeman told him "Oye, hombre, despacio, eh?" which would translate to "Hey man, slow down...", since then Jonny has been seen riding around in a moped. |

| Radiohead – Creep Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
this song is about the metric system, the kingdom of hyrule, the black crowes, the rise and fall of the roman empire and the clockwork orange.
it's also about thom's glockenspiel which was broken at the time of recording thus why jonny greenwood decided to attack his guitar throughout the chorus.
a piece of history if you ask me.
a piece of pie if you ask grouch marx. |

The sniper in the brain, regurgitating drain
Incestuous and vain, and many other last names
I look at my watch it say 9:25 and I think "Oh God I'm still alive"
Fucking Genius. |

| Björk – Venus As A Boy Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
|
it is not exclusively about sex and it is definitely not about a bisexual boy... i'm bisexual myself and i just don't see this reflecting any light on that particular subject. it is about the intimacy of her and her lover, her lover is a boy who has his mind set on her and her alone. he understands her body's needs, he is not demanding of her but instead he is giving and wishes to further worship her, she is smitten and taken with him obviously, for somehow he is her, he is venus as a boy. |

you guys are all way off... this song is about how wrong it is to blow up the image of god into something of immense power and supremacy when in reality, god is just the name we use to refer to the very force of life. we are that, we are in more ways than one, a living breathing reflection of god, whichever god you may beieve in... god, krishna, jah, allah... no different. |
