this is (aside from the stupid "birthday clown" line) one of craig finn's most distinct and beautifully told stories, so why was it a b-side release ignored by virtually everyone? |

| Wolf Parade – Language City Lyrics
| 16 years ago
|
From an interview with Dan:
"Language City is about a coke party, where 'language city' is a metaphor for the pointlessness of staying up all night talking about nothing, and there’s also a bit of my trip to Russia in there too because there’s a pretty heavy party scene in Russia – something I found pretty terrifying…and fun."

seems like it's about a girl who gets too into drugs and has to leave college, either to go home or go into rehab. at the end she is back partying with her old friends again. |

| The Hold Steady – You Can Make Him Like You Lyrics

this song is about girls who define themselves by the guy they happen to be dating at the time. when they want to be someone else, they just get find a new boyfriend - "there's always other boys and you can make them like you"
this becomes a problem when they find themselves alone, because they no longer have any identity |

if you read the liner notes to the deluxe version of CRCR, malkmus discusses how the smashing pumpkins line was never meant to mean anything negative, but billy corgan got pissy about it |

"I feel it conveys an issue of pro-war in this situation we're in."
Unfortunately not true, Bloc Party are anti-war, anti-american, and anti-capitalism |

Does anyone know what the lyrics in the first version of the chorus are? Sounds to me like:
Why should we shit ourselves
Don't know why, don't know why
Why should we kid ourselves
Don't know why, don't know why
My favorite song on Secaucus btw |

You ARE aware that both the Libertines' albums have been produced by Mick Jones, aren't you? If he thinks they're alright, I don't think that gives you much room to complain. |

It's about a girl whose life has gone to shit because of drugs...Pretty ironic considering what's going on with Pete right now. |
