| Clap Your Hands Say Yeah – Over and Over Again (Lost and Found) Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
I think it's amazing how many interpretations people seem to have had about this song, many of which make sense when you go back and think about them. Having said that though I've got a sneaky feeling that some words and word-combinations may have been chosen purely for phonetic reasons alone, i.e. "sigh, a little die, no more a child, goodbye" and "imply the other guy and scandalize the lion". The word choices in these lines in particular seem to fit in perfectly with the dreamy, laid-back sound of the song. It's almost as if lyrics are used as an instrument in their own right. So if the song is actually about musical history or relationships or anything else then I think the way that the theme is combined with the actual sounds of the words makes this song even more special than we might think it is. Who knows though. Whatever it all means I know it sounds brilliant and that I'll be listening to this song for the rest of my life |

| Yeh, if we were all nice to each another this guy wouldn't have jumped off the bridge would he?? It's a good question really - why can't everyone just be nice?! | |
| Clap Your Hands Say Yeah – Over and Over Again (Lost and Found) Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| It's just about relationships is it not?? A kind of dejected boredom about the whole cycle of starting and finishing with people... "start another fire and watch it slowly die" | |
