| The Replacements – Here Comes A Regular Lyrics
| 11 years ago

This song is a favorite of a group of friends of mine. All in our 50's. We love the small town bar visions and emotions the song brings out. We like it because we long to be just a regular at the bar. All of us are intense in our business in the big cities but we like to wind down with a whiskey and a beer-bump in a small town bar. |

The song is a play on the Cars "Let the Good Times Roll" which was released in 1978 when the Cars were new on the music scene. Westerberg wrote this song 20-25 years later. Perhaps as a slap to the fact that the Replacements and Westerberg never "hit the big time" like the Cars did. Westerberg is wallowing in his self pity in the song. But every Mats fan and Westerberg fan knows he DID hit the big time...we know it everytime we listen to one of his songs. |

what i luv about this song is the Rolling Stones sounding guitar tone. You can picture keith richards jammin with the band.
as far as the meaning,...pretty obvious right everyone...Apalachian mountain moonshine in a jug with some white trash chicks. |

| Paul Westerberg – What A Day (For A Night) Lyrics

each westerberg song without a post yet, I'm going to start off with the same line, "Where are all the mats fans?
Now onto the song. This song is Westerberg 101 lyrology. Word play. It's a play on the phrase 'What a day for bike ride' or "What a day for a walk in the park" or "What a day for picnic". What a day for night is his expression for a great day for another concert that night. Everything happens at night for bands. 'What we play is alright' "going to hop another flight" to another gig, "on and on we play" are all referencing the band's concert. The lyrics I do not get in this song are 'good morning boys goodnight gowns and sunet toys and sundown clowns". anyone with a vision please post. |

| Paul Westerberg – A Few Minutes Of Silence Lyrics

where are the mats fans? no comments yet? So, here is my take on it. Paul westerberg was a member of the Replacements, a Minnesota roots garage band. they practiced as teenages and twenty somethings at homes and garages of family and friends. The song is about the occupants wanting some silence. you gotta love the line, "Play me want I want to hear, don;t make me come down there". A moment of silence!!! you can picture the band asking 'what do you want to hear?" because they are proud of their songs. But the occupany has had enough and wants them to "play some silence". |
