Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.
Holiday
Bee Gees
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
This is getting close to what I want to hear. Hard rock with a pinch of the essence of pop. Not pop rock, but hard rock with meaning and feeling.
I'd say that this song, is with a mixture of Lordi's whole monster theme, means how people look down on some people just because they're different in one way or another and how much pain it can cause sometimes.
"I would do it all for you, would you do it all, do it all for me"
Like there, I would say it means that the person treated different can be a nice person, who would help you even if you treat them bad, but you not do anything in return.
"You can't deny - You crucify Would you get down in the gutter Swallowing your pride"
So, my conclusion is that this song is somewhat about how people treat people differently and even ignore people completely, like they're below their dignity.
beautifull song. Nice deapth.Would you understand the beauty of the beast??
Suits their band.nice vid too
i think the chorus is saying that even though he is ugly can you see underneath the skin to his heart and see the 'beauty' ie the kindness etc. am i digging too deep?
Nice song. Love it...
What, nobody else likes this one? This is one of my favorites.
Man I love this song! I have all of them, legal ofcourse. 'Yes I would love a monsterman, even his very ugly. How naughtyer he is how better' Sorry just wrote what comes into my mind...
Sounds like a love song.
I agree with Psychoman, but only the chorus reminds me of a love song, that and "all that you get is much less you deserve // leaving for now someday I may return" Dunno what to make of the other parts of the song though. Awesome song, one of my faves from Lordi.
Oh, and it should be "all that you get is much less than you deserve".
