| Kate Havnevik – Halo Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
When I first head this song it sounded like it was about the singer's own lonliness after a break up. However I think it definately is about her ex's feelings rather than her own. It sounds like she is dealing with the break up optimistically, or has moved on altogether while her ex is having trouble letting go and feels that they will never love or be loved by anybody else again. She is encouraging her ex to begin looking for another 'one' in the world, telling them that one day they will love again and that their life will go on without her in it. Love it :) |

It does make sense that it could be about her cheating on him, although I think it's just about a sad, dying relationship. I don't think they'd sing the middle verse & chorus together if it were about cheating.. They both seem to mutually agree that they're 'turning into dust' and the relationship's just not what it used to be. 'The truth hurts' because they've been trying to tell themselves they're still deeply in love, when in reality they aren't. One of the saddest songs I've heard in a long time, very moving and very relatable for a lot of people :( Thumbs up to James Morrison. |

Brilliant lyrics!!! Amanda says on the version I have that "That song SHOULD be funnier, but it's actually just so true it's SAD". Cracks me up every time :P Lovelovelove it! As for the meaning its pretty self explanitory - obsessivly stalking a friend late at night via the internet. |

| Björk – Hyperballad Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I see the girl in a secure and safe relationship (possibly a marriage?). However she feels removed from her old life (right at the top). Although life is beautiful, she's distanced from everything else. She misses the people/places/privacy/excitement of living HER life as opposed to her life with him. Disatisfied with the boring(?) life on top of the mountain with him, she drops objects over the edge. She doesn't do this in anger, but more to test what it's like falling from the life at the top to a life below. This symbolises her thinking about leaving. She wonders whether she would be happier living her life without him or if she would 'die' in the process. This is probably an emotional 'death' (as in losing her true love) but it could also have a physical aspect (as in losing money/belongings/kids in a messy break up or divorce). If she didn't test it she might throw herself off without thinking and then what would happen? She is so deeply in love/committed that the drop from where she is now to being alone is immense in comparison to leaving a new/undeveloped relationship. she feels too far up to leave without severely harming/killing herself. She throws things off in privacy as she does in fact love him so she doesn't want him to be hurt by the fact that she even thinks about leaving, nor does she want to fight (thus no anger). In the end she forces herself to be content in staying with him, as she feels safe from the rocks below, but she never stops thinking about crashing onto them and just what would happen if she ever decided to make that move. It could also be her thinking what would happen if HE left, and what would become of her. However the song does make us feel that she is somewhat in control of whether she falls or not so I doubt this is the case. |

| Sia – Moon Lyrics | 17 years ago |

She wants to be with this person so much & he is her everything. She's attracted to him and feels that her life revolves around this one person (like the moon to the earth). However she knows she is invisible to him (camouflaged by the timeline) and that they will 'never be'. Despite this she still 'spins limbless' for him as she is unable to tear away. Her voice is so beautiful & full of emotion, as in many of her songs, however I find it a little too repetitive towards the end. I can relate only too well to the lyrics. |
