Bloodhound Gang – Along Comes Mary Lyrics 19 years ago
Don't know about any of you, but this song basically explains what happened between my ex and myself - perfectly. Fuck the druggie raver bitches.

Bloodhound Gang – Boom Lyrics 20 years ago
It's like my friends and I keep saying - if Vanilla Ice had sounded this hardcore when he first came on the scene, his career would have gone *so* much better, not to mention open the door for tons more white rappers through the years.

The Wallflowers – Heroes (David Bowie cover) Lyrics 20 years ago
This song was written when the Iron Curtain and Berlin Wall were still up. During that time, there were passes given to the people on the West (free) side to visit the East (communist) side for a day. Sometimes people would meet while on the East side, and short of subjecting yourself to the terror and oppression of living there, you'd have to abandon any hope of ever having a normal life with that person (or even seeing them again in some cases).

"I, I wish you could swim
Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim
Though nothing, nothing will keep us together
We can beat them, for ever and ever"

The first verse describes how people would try to escape East Berlin. Some would swim where the wall was low, risking drowning in the freezing water of the river.

"I, I will be king
And you, you will be queen
Though nothing, nothing will drive them away
We can be Heroes, just for one day
We can be us, just for one day"

Nothing would ever cause the guards on the Wall to go away, for any amount of time. One day is all they have.

"I, I remember standing, by the wall
And the guns, shot above our heads
And we kissed, as though nothing could fall
And the shame, was on the other side
Oh we can beat them, for ever and ever"

They stood by the wall on the West side, as the guards shot at people trying to escape. "The shame" is the communist government on the East side, and they're sharing what could possibly be their last kiss.

As for what this song means to me, I believe it can be applied to any situation where two people who want to be together can't for some very serious reasons.

Hope this helped anyone who's wondering.

Me First and the Gimme Gimmes – Leaving on a Jet Plane Lyrics 22 years ago
It's obviously meant to appeal to today's youth... I mean, in your parents' time, would it be socially acceptable to swear like that in a song? I think not.

Stevie Ray Vaughan – Pride and Joy Lyrics 23 years ago
Just when I think I've read the stupidest post ever, you go and post another. You should offer your posting style to hospital operating theatres as a highly-effective alternative to unconsciousness-inducing medications.

Keep typing. Maybe, someday, you'll randomly type something semi-intelligent. I see you've set aside this special time to humiliate yourself on the Internet. If you knew what you're talking about, you'd be dangerous. As Abba Eban so aptly said: "His ignorance is encyclopedic."

You are about as entertaining as watching grass grow in a windowbox. What do you do for a living? You are living, aren't you? Genius does what it must, talent does what it can, and you had best do what you're told, you dyslexic lobotomy patient. Maybe you wouldn't read like such a pathetic loser if that pimple on your ass hadn't turned out to be a brain tumor; if your weren't so fat that when you stand on the weighing scale, it reads: "Sorry, we don't weigh livestock.", or if you didn't have a face that makes Medusa look like a supermodel. No, come to think of it, you would.

To sum up: I'd rather pass the world's largest kidney stone than read another post from you.

And need I remind you of the whole new meaning the song took on after... that day in America's history?

The Offspring – Gone Away Lyrics 23 years ago
Every time I listen to this song I'm forced to think of all the people I've ever known that have passed on.... If I listen to it twice I always cry. It's a perfect expression of how I feel about a lot of people... My sympathies, Dex... I know how it is - more than most.

12 Stones – Broken Lyrics 23 years ago
WHO THE HELL CARES WHETHER THE BAND IS CHRISTIAN OR NOT?!? good music is good music regardless of who performs it. personally, i'm Wiccan (i was baptized into Christianity but gave it up anyway, for those of you who might criticize me because of my choice). i don't give a flying f**k what the rest of you think the song means.... and frankly you shouldn't care whether i think it's about the Christian God or not. i just think it's a great song with a great guitar riff. that's the only reason i listen to music... is for the music itself. i really don't care what the lyrics are. however, it's nice if the lyrics apply to something about me, because then i can relate to the song instead of just rockin' out like i usually do. anyway... that's my position on this. thanx for reading.

TRUSTCompany – Deeper Into You Lyrics 23 years ago
i believe that this song is about how someone's losing their sense of self in a relationship, as if she wants him to change something about himself and makes him feel guilty because of it. the conflict is that he doesn't want to change, but loves her too much to straight out say no, so he's caught up in this ongoing interior conflict that he can't escape even in his dreams. you can take that and run with it... but that's just what it means to me.
