Fleet Foxes – Helplessness Blues Lyrics 15 years ago
I took the ending to be what the narrator wants out of life: him working the orchard and her tending the store. Like that was the future they chose instead of being stuck doing what someone else chose for them.

Iron & Wine – Foot of the Manger Lyrics 16 years ago
this song reminds me so much of growing up in the South. it's really a whole mindset that is represented beautifully in this song. one of my favorites by Iron and Wine.

Karate – South Lyrics 16 years ago
the musicality of this song is just amazing. how the lyrics change tone with the tonality of the guitar riffs is perfect. strange song, but one of karate's best and most thoughtful in my opinion.

Grizzly Bear – Deep Blue Sea Lyrics 16 years ago
this is a traditional American folk song, possibly from Britain. Pete Seeger and various other singers have done versions.

Sharks Keep Moving – Like A River Lyrics 16 years ago
These lyrics are wrong. These are right:

She skirts the room like
a river skirts river banks
Her skirt moves like a stream
And she smokes her smoke
like she's passionately in love
And she is, I suppose,
in love with someone

She'll have a gin tonic,
I'll have a whiskey
Her drinks are held like apples
held by apple trees (apple kings? really?)

Get up, let's walk
Get up
Get up, let's walk
My place is just a couple blocks

Great song on a great EP.

Bon Iver – Woods Lyrics 16 years ago
this song is redone on the Volcano Choir album. it's called "Still" and I think it's actually better than this original version.

Mount Eerie – Moon, I Already Know Lyrics 16 years ago
i believe the ? word is "cower."

I love how there are so many parts and versions to The Moon. This seems to be a direct sequel to the first "The Moon" with the narrator responding to the moon who was starting at him at the end of the preceding song.

Ben Sollee – Panning For Gold Lyrics 17 years ago
I think this song is talking about how even God has gotten disillusioned with the world and it's problems and now it's up to us to make it a better place. really beautiful song.
