| Jackson Browne – The Pretender Lyrics | 7 years ago |
|
“Out into the evening strolls the pretender.” “But as the evening descends I sit thinking about Everyman.” Think...Jackson wrote it. It must have some significant meaning for him. But being the legendary song writer that he is, he wrote the song in a manner that we can all relate to. Jackson is Everyman, Jackson is the pretender. We all are Everyman, we are all the pretender. |

| I love the times my girlfiend cums too. | |
| Jackson Browne – The Night Inside Me Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I believe this is one of Jackson's deepest songs. He literally takes you inside the mind that is Jackson Browne. Wow. | |
| Jackson Browne – Sky Blue and Black Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I heard Jackson comment on this song. He said it's like when someone dies you never forget them you forget their bad traits you will always love them when they are gone. Died. He says its the same way with a relationship. You each die to each other and go your separate ways but you never forget each other. Jackson said its basically a funeral song for a lost love. | |

| This song is about surfing. Read my comment on "In The Shape of a Heart". | |
| Jackson Browne – Sleep's Dark and Silent Gate Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| "I found my love too late". Very very sad. He found her after she died. Too late to save her. The reason? "Running round day after day, looking for the time to play (music)". | |
| Jackson Browne – In The Shape Of A Heart Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
Since almost everything that Jackson Browne writes is based on a true story, this one probably is too. The story of this song is the third verse. But in order to clarify to the listener of the story of how a ruby necklace in the shape of a heart is being dropped into a hole in a wall he needs to describe the circumstances that lead up to this scene. In the first verse (probably metaphoric), he plainly describes the ruby necklace in the shape of a heart that he gave to this girl that he loved. Apparently it must have been very beautiful and apparently she wore it a lot. She loved his gift. It was for him and her both a symbol of their love. It probably was a real necklace that JB purchased. The second verse describes that they had a love-hate relationship. The holes are also both metaphorical and physical. In short this is the story behind the hole. It was a real hole in his house with so many holes in the walls that there were too many to fix. Just like there were too many holes in their relationship to fix. Finally the third verse tells the true story. She left him and her dear John letter to him was the ruby necklace left on the stand beside his bed which verse 1 describes. Imagine yourself in his shoes. Waking up and finding that. You would pick the necklace up and sit on the side of the bed holding and looking at it and thinking about your dead relationship. We now also understand the significance of the hole he dropped the necklace in. "Hey man and there was this hole...." How much truth is there in this story? I would like to know which house he lived in when he dropped the necklace down the hole in the wall. Is it still there? Did he go "f*ck!" and tear a hole in the wall and retrieve it? He He. Also "and never know the shallows and the unseen reefs that are there from the start" besides being metaphorical also speaks of Jackson's experience as a surfer. JB is a surfer and he found in this relationship the same thing he learned from the experience of surfing. Finding shallows and reefs that were dangerous and invisible when you first surf a new area. I used the word metaphor a lot. Almost ever word penned by Jackson Browne is a metaphor. He uses metaphors for metaphors. I wish I had a pinky nail worth of his writing ability. |

| The Beatles – Revolution 9 Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| I believe this is John Lennon's attempt to capture his thoughts and reproduce them out loud. How fast does your brain process images and sounds and thoughts. Lennon was way way way ahead of his time. Folks try listening to your own thoughts and think what kind of effort you would have to go through to represent those thoughts out loud. It is a little spooky the imagery coming from inside of Lennon's mind. | |
| Jackson Browne – Linda Paloma Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| I believe that this is a song about a one night stand with a mexican girl, possibly a prostitute, but has beeen romanticized because Mexican girls are love. | |
| Jackson Browne – For A Dancer Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Rainmanjr is correct. Jacksons friend is Scotty Runyon. On a YouTube video Jackson describes that this friend of his died in a fire. | |
| Bob Dylan – It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding) Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| This song is a collage of images that describe the heart and soul of the American life, soul, politics, religion, marketing, etc. These are the words of the Prophet to all of us to show us how empty and soul-less our society is. "Flesh colored Jesus that glows in the dark"? How rediculous and how blasphemous to reduce Jesus to a toy. But that is the nature of life in America. And Dylan is showing that to us all. | |

| I think "the great songed traveler" is Bob Dylan. Many people have called him a prophet. Sounds like Jackson must have met him. | |
| Pink Floyd – Any Colour You Like Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
This is from the Dark Side of The Rainbow. This is the synchronization of the Dark Side with the Wizard of Oz. This song plays when the tornado hits Dorthy's house. The screaming is a girl in the midst of a storm. Also the mood changes in the song when Dorthy sees her loved ones in the coulds and has hope. Very will done. |

| Pink Floyd – Sheep Lyrics | 19 years ago |

I noticed that the intro music is the story of the first verse. The keyboard is the sheep and the bass is the dog. Listen to the music as the notice each other i nthe field and the lyrics start with a bang when the dog attacks the sheep. Very nice intro. also I have heard that part of satanic worship is to quote bible scripture in reverse; Psalm 23 1 The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want 2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures 3 he leads me beside the still water Sheep The lord is my shepherd I shall not want Through pastures green he leadeth me the silent waters by To lie down - down to lie Green pastures - Pastures Green Great song though. I think this is Pink Floyds best album |
