| Bob Dylan – Seven Days Lyrics
| 12 years ago
|
I don't know why every site has the wrong lyrics, these are the most correct.
Seven days, seven more days she'll be comin'
I'll be waiting at the station for her to arrive
Seven more days, all I gotta do is survive.
She been gone ever since I been a child
Ever since I seen her smile, I never forgotten her eyes.
She had a face that outshined the sun in the skies.
I been good, I been good while I been waitin'
Maybe guilty of hesitatin', But I been hangin' on
Seven more days and all that'll be gone.
There's kissing in the valley,
Thieving in the alley,
Fighting every inch of the way.
Trying to get a lead on
Somebody to beat on
(Where/Well) the night's are always sadder than the day
Seven days, seven (are a-glowin')
But then the whistle will be blowin, she'll be comin' forth,
My beautiful comrade from the north.
Seven days, seven more days that are connected
Just like I expected, she'll be comin' on forth,
My beautiful comrade from the north. |

Didn't John Lennon make a negative comment about Bowie's clothing and the whole glam genre? I always thought this was just Bowie saying to Lennon that it's just a dance. |

| Mott The Hoople – Marionette Lyrics
| 13 years ago
|
"Frustratingly, Mott were about to embark on a US tour which would have taken them to huge venues such as Madison Square Garden. Hunter says he felt under constant pressure to write the next hit. He described the stress in a song called "Marionette", which contains a line George Formby might have written, had he lived in a later, more introspective age of songwriting: "Where's my sanity gone — mother?""
It's really about how Hunter felt by the end of Mott. |

Yeah, it's nice to see Claudio revisit a Shabutie song. When he changed from Star Cecil to that cover that I can't remember, he said he hated the song so if you saw it in concert that may be the last time you ever will. |

| Bob Dylan – Sarah Jane Lyrics
| 14 years ago
|
The only original song on the 1973 Dylan compilation album. Seems pretty autobiographical if you ask me.
Sarah Jane is Sara Dylan?
Dylan had four children with Sara, as well as adopting her child from her previous marriage. |

This song greatly reminds me of Shaubtie, especially the noises starting at 2:45.
Great song. I really like the guitar solo. |

| Shabutie – Shameless Lyrics

I'd imagine parts (riffs, certain lyrics) of old material were reused. Strung Short says "But I'm a bastard" and The Final Cut as "I'm the bastard"
So probably lines and that a reused, but not that much. |

Thanks for reading the above. I think every song (excluding tracks like "A Whole Lot of Nothing") a band makes should be here, regardless of lyrics or not. |

| Jethro Tull – The Hot Headed English General Lyrics
| 16 years ago
|
A little live piece they played in the early to mid 70s (and maybe afterwards) after Locomotive Breath, Aqualung, or Wind-Up.
Not really sure if the title is a reference to an actual general though.

| Jethro Tull – For A Thousand Mothers Lyrics

In addition to the others the "Did you hear baby..." is Ian talking about his sucess. He probably refers to himself as "baby" due to the fact he was the youngest of three brothers. The other Anderson boys were much older than him, and left the house while he was a toddler. |

Sossity is a play on word of society. Tull's guitarist Martin Barre made thought the same mistake, and m bought a boat and named it Sossity. After Ian told Barre him the actual meaning, he sold the boat! |

| Jethro Tull – We Used To Know Lyrics

I think it has to go along the lines of "If you don't remember the past, you're doomed to repeat it" type of thing.
My favorite track from Stand Up. I love the flute on it. |

| Iron Maiden – Run To The Hills Lyrics
| 16 years ago
|
I'd say the song takes place 1850s to 1880s. Somewhere along the American settling of the West.
I would say it goes to a biased point of view to the Native American's favor. I would say it was written in this point of view due to Harris's nationality.
I'm American, and I feel bad for the Natives. But as someone much earlier stated, American Indians weren't all one group, but neither were the whites. One group attacked another, then the attacked attacks another one, even if they wanted peace. |
