The Mighty Mighty Bosstones – Bronzing The Garbage Lyrics	14 years ago
Great song, but I always felt the chorus slowed it down.

They Might Be Giants – Kiss Me, Son Of God Lyrics	14 years ago
Except... not at all... It could work for either Teddy Roosevelt, W, FDR, Wilson, Obama, or Nixon. Not really seeing Reagan here. But I guess it was cooler to poke fun at Reagan than the progressives I mentioned above, eh?

The Strokes – Red Light Lyrics	14 years ago
One of my favorite songs by The Strokes, everything works perfectly in this one. Just an amazing song. Sometimes I wonder how and who picks singles for songs... they never seem to pick the ones I love hahaha.

The Strokes – On The Other Side Lyrics	14 years ago
I can't believe all the negative comments with people saying they hate this song, or it's their least favorite Strokes song. It's by far one of my favorite songs by them. Something about it reminds me of NYC... it makes me homesick. Though most of their songs remind me of NYC haha. I can't wait to move back home.

Ramones – Merry Christmas (I Don't Want To Fight Tonight) Lyrics	15 years ago
Joey actually loved Christmas. His mother viewed Hanukkah as a Jewish holliday, and Christmas as an "American" holiday, so they celebrated both. Joey actually held Christmas parties in NYC every year until he died. Like I said, he LOVED Christmas lol.

Rilo Kiley – 85 Lyrics

15 years ago

People seem to think that because Jenny is singing this, then it is sung from a woman's perspective. Or even that she wrote it, or that it is from her own personal experience. We all clearly know that this song is about love gone sour, but I think it's a story of a man. And since anyone can tell a story, Jenny is doing so. Besides, if '85 was their best year, it's clearly not about Jenny Lewis lol. Don't interpret everything so literally.

OK Go – This Too Shall Pass Lyrics	15 years ago
LOL WUT? Yeah I don't see any lyrics discussing how a socialist/communist agenda has never and will never work, or that Obama is just like Bush, except his big government comes from the "left" as opposed to the "right". Soooo probably not.

What did she do to her voice on this record? It's not terrible, at least not on this song, but I prefer it on the other records. It almost sounds like she's singing from her throat...

Ramones – Gimme Gimme Shock Treatment Lyrics	15 years ago
LOL Americans don't understand punk? That makes complete sense. I guess the Ramones didn't understand it? Anyway, those statements are as ignorant as they are laughable. I'm sure it's such a hard fucking life in the UK lol. You know, having the government take care of your lazy asses and all? Yeah everyone in the States has it sooooo easy. We work. We survive at all costs. Stupid limeys.

Blue Öyster Cult – Don't Fear The Reaper Lyrics

15 years ago

To everyone that took Buck Dharma's words the wrong way. He chose his words carefully: "I was actually kind of appalled when I first realized that some people were seeing it as an advertisement for suicide or something. That was not my intention at all." That doesn't mean the song ISN'T about suicide, and he never said it isn't. It's just not an ADVERTISEMENT for suicide - which I totally agree with. I also completely believe him when he says DFTR is a love song. It's about two people, in love, that make a suicide pact. So he wasn't PROMOTING suicide, but he did write a song about it.

Belle & Sebastian – Dress Up in You Lyrics

15 years ago

I love reading the crap people throw out on here lol. From what I've read, no one has mentioned anything about WHERE they've read/heard "this, or that." No sources, nothing. Just a bunch of "how could it be about Isobel", or "it is about Isobel!!!" I can also tell that most of you don't understand song writing. Not that I'm a song writer by any means, but I do understand that many songs are not written to be obvious. Now... I have heard Stuart deny this song, and many others to be about Isobel. Including "I'm Waking Up To Us", which I've heard bandmates say IS about her. I, for one, believe this song IS about her.

Ramones – Palisades Park Lyrics	15 years ago
One more thing... they don't say "you'll never know how good it just can feel". That doesn't even make sense! They sing "You never know how good a kiss can feel."

Ramones – Palisades Park Lyrics	15 years ago
The lyrics are wrong. Someone seems to think the Ramones tried to put their own twist on this song to make it edgy - this is not the case. Nowhere in the song is there mention of a girl puking. Nor do they say my arms were flying. They do, however, sing about a girl being CUTE, and their heart flying up... Someone should correct this. Oh yeah, and it's a great cover!

Ramones – Somebody Put Something In My Drink Lyrics	15 years ago
Don't listen to the people saying this was Johnny's song (he barely contributed with writing). This was written by Richie Ramone about something that happened to him one night while he was out drinking with Joey (and maybe Dee Dee). Mickey Leigh even writes about it in his book.
