| Red Hot Chili Peppers – Can't Stop Lyrics

J Butterfly is, I think, a reference to Julia Butterfly. She lived in a Redwood tree for two years to protest, peacefully, the destruction of a forest.
I love this song and the whole album is amazing. |

This is about how Anthony felt when he heard that Cobain had died. He was remembering Kurt in this song.
And John Frusciante is a guitar god, no doubt about it. |

Lots of people play this song at their weddings. Perhaps people should listen to all of the lyrics in a song, and not just assume that the title tells what the song is really about. |

This song seems to be about a strained relationship. He doesn't want to leave her ('hard to believe I can still find it in me to be so naive') and she feels bad ('cry on your pillow..saying you're sorry won't make it right'). And he is sick of it ('cos there's nothing left to say'), maybe he will finally leave. |

This has always been one of my most favourite U2 songs. I agree that it seems to be about a strained relationship. To me, it's more of a lover relationship though. Maybe they keep fighting but always go back to each other. I am not sure. But it is SO beautiful. |

To me, this song is about depression. Jonathan does indeed suffer from depression. And I always thought the line was "Guiding the blade down the line/ each cut closer to the vein vein vein" but "riding" fits in there too. So it sounds like self-mutilation to me. And those are my favourite lines. This is another awesome song by one of the greatest bands. |

This is my favourite SoCo song, although all of their songs are gorgeous. The CD is GREAT!
I saw them perform in January and after the concert all 5 of them just hung out-- signing autographs & talking with fans. It was so amazingly nice. What an amazing band. |

This is one of my top three koRn songs. It's about not giving a fuck about what someone else thinks about you. |

Yeah Anthony wrote this originally as a poem. This is how he was feeling after the original guitarist, Hillel, died of a heroin overdose. Anthony was on heroin at the time too. It's a beautiful and emotional song.
Yay and I get to see the Chilis in June!! |

This is my most favourite song. It has gotten me throught many a night. I love it. And to me, it is completely about suicide. |

I heard that Bono (the lead singer) wrote this song about Ali, his wife. She always helps people in Africa and places, and she's so caring and helpful and never turns away from them. Bono was frustrated that it upsets him more than Ali gets upset about it and he wants to be more calm and loving about the sickness and bad things in the world. More like Ali. |
