This song is about Billings, Montana. My home town. When he says "by the bay" he means horses and cows. I love this song!!! |

| The Cars – Dangerous Type Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
My take on it is that the guy realizes what's at stake for both people in love. Usually all people think about is themselves, and avoiding getting hurt. "She's a lot like you, the dangerous type" Love is the greatest reward, but yet also the greatest risk of getting hurt. We don't see ourselves as the perpetrator, although we have all hurt someone, maybe without realizing it. Everyone is afraid of getting hurt, getting played, getting used. Some of the most dangerous ones are the ones who have been hurt, because they heal only by passing it on. It's a great message about making sure you are ready to commit or not, and watch out for hurting someone, as well as watch your own back. I have had the wrath against me. It's gotten to the point of me being more afraid of pissing off a woman off than getting hurt. In my experience, the ones that have been hurt are the dangerous type, not the ones who you think might use you. "She's a lot like you" is you. |

| I think this is my favorite Cars song. I really like Elliot's guitar solo. Lyrics are awesome, just a killer chick that it's so beautiful and alluring, yet out of reach. The chase, the infatuation, the unrequited love... classic song about yearning. | |

see BOC's song "The Vigil". IMHO, their best song ever. Also has same meanings. I love this site. I love what people see in the lyrics. I think every band intends for each individual to interpret, but sometimes, especially with more thinking man's bands like BOC with more ethereal lyrics, they have their obvious stories then there's more mysterious. This is obvious. Take me away is about aliens rescuing someone who feels the earth is no longer a nice place to live. BOC write a lot of songs about aliens. Probably more than any other band. But I don't think it's cool to put other people down on the net. Let them have their say. It may mean something to them, maybe nothing in common with what was written about originally, but it's their life, their perspective, and they're entitled to that. |

This is my favorite all time BOC song and I am a fan, and have every record, including what they still do. Mirrors is also my favorite album, it was different, but cool still. Close behind are Cultosaurus and Fire of Unkown.... but I like them all!! I am sure that there would be more posts here, but especially for BOC, the song is pretty self-explanatory. And man is it ever more and more relevant as the years go by. They also wrote "Take me away" with a similar meaning. I agree. We've fucked up pretty good, and it's scary. The religious freaks are going to do something major. The planet and the weather is jacked up with carbon emissions and global warming. I'm not religious, but there has got to be some justice, somehow, somewhere, some time, about how greedy fucking corporations and filthy wealthy people have raped the land, stepped on people, and pocketed billions while 20% of people are unemployed and losing their homes. The prisons and battlefields are full of poor people. While the rich are guilty for making all the messes. Justice has to come some how. But we might have gone too far. Aliens wouldn't want any part of us, seeing how we kill each other throughout time. they are just waiting until we finally go too far, then wait for the earth to shake us off, and colonize. hell, maybe that's already happened. There's a lot of shit that we can't explain, like the Egyptian pyramids... |
