| Sublime – Burritos Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| Totally about depression, possibly manic depression, when those days come that all you want to do is hide from the world. RestingPlace makes a good point also, what with the heroin. | |
| Bright Eyes – Arc of Time (Time Code) Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
Everyone should keep in mind that this is not a "Praise Conor Oberst" forum at all, but a place to discuss the meaning, of his songs... or "songmeanings" Anyhow, I think this song is about the choices we have in life, and how in the end it does not matter, we are dead. A lot of people live for Jesus Christ as a way into heaven, not because we think it is right, I think that is addressed here also. And the last few lines are about how everything is getting replaced by computers. |

|
The term "allies" does not apply just to WWII, it applies to all wars really, they used in it Korea, Vietnam, The Gulf Wars... This is just a simple anti-war song in my opinion, told from the point of view of a soldier/songwriter living through it. And am I the only one who hears a sample of the MASH theme song in the bridge? |

| Ted Leo and the Pharmacists – Under the Hedge Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
From an interview with Ted Leo: Interview Guy: You wanna play another song? Ted: Yeah sure… It’s called “Under the Hedge” and it’s about something negative that happened to Chris and I when we played at Oberlin College in Ohio last year with a band that shall remain nameless. |

| The Strokes – 12:51 Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
"i exspecially hate it when i see the seniors trying to pick up the freshmen, it pisses me off that they are too fucking retarted to get someone even relevent to their own age. " (rel-le-vant) Relevant means to be directly related to whatever is the focus of one’s attention. I guess if you stretch the meaning, it could work, but don't try to stretch the meaning... Anyway, I agree this song is about sex, the following lines totally prove it: "Fuck goin to that party Oh really, your folks are away now? Alright, let's go, you convinced me " |

| Weezer – Beverly Hills Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
First off, everyone chill out, this is just a single.. Maladroit sounds nothing like "Dope Nose" and Green is nothing like "Hash Pipe" so settle down. Secondly, I think there is a difference between Weezer writing a song about how fake Hollywood is compared to GC writing a song about the same thing. Weezer does not seem to play games of Hollywood, they do not drive escalades and all that shit, so them insulting the people that do is not hypocritical. Lastly this song is not about not fitting it, it is about how people are fake but that does not matter, cause he is just gonna do his thing and be happy for it. Catchy as hell, and the wa-wa solo kicks ass. |
