This song is by Supergrass. It’s such a wonderful song. I’m not sure what’s this song is about but my interpretation to it is that it’s about overcoming issues in your life. The lyrics are quite sad but the music is really happy and full of energy, the music makes this song more optimistic. Even if you are feeling down, there is still hope.Don’t give up - You just need to keep on moving… Speaking of moving , when I was about 20 years old I’ve left my parents’ house and moved to a city that was 400KM drive from where I lived. It was a beautiful tourist city with the perfect weather, very hot and dry; I’ve already had a job in a hotel that was waiting for me. I’ve packed all my clothes because I knew I’m going to stay there for a while. I bought a ticket for a night bus and has I was waiting for my bus to arrive I’ve lit up a cigarette and I’ve put on the ground all my belongings. A few minutes later I looked at the ground and my personal bag was gone, someone stole my bag while I was busy smoking a cigarette. All my personal belongings were there, my mobile phone, my ID cards, money everything was gone! While I was stressing out and asking around if anyone has seen my bag, the bus had arrived. It was really late at night; luckily I’ve put my bus ticket in my pocket. I had two choices: 1. Phone my parents and ask them to pick me up and postpone my move to the new city. 2. Use the ticket in my pocket and get on the bus, drive for 8 hours and whatever will be will be. Of course I choose option number 2, I quite enjoy adventures like that, and I believe that what doesn’t kill you only makes you stronger. Although I didn’t know anyone in the bus, didn’t have any money for food, didn’t have any credit cards or anything but my cloths, I was quite optimistic and I’ve arrived safely to the new city. When I got to the new place I’ve managed to call my mum, I got a coin from a really nice lady that I stopped in the middle of the street. My mum managed to send me money and helped me with all the ID cards that needed to be reissued. My mum really helped me sort out everything. Ever since I was young, I always managed to get myself into troubles and mum was always there to save my ass. Thank you mum for everything you ever done for me. Check out this moving song…
This song is by The rolling stones. I enjoy listening to some of their songs very much! This is my Hubby’s favourite song. I love it very much as well. This song is about a guy mourning his dead girlfriend. It’s quite a sad song. Speaking of the dead, when I was a teenager my friends and I had a period where we use to play with weegie boards. Because we didn’t want our parents to know about it we found the perfect place to do it. Right across from where I lived there was an abandoned house that was empty all year. We broke into the house and played our weegie board. Sometime we would just meet there without playing anything because it was quite a scary thing playing with ghosts in an empty big house with no electricity in the middle of the night. I don’t really believe in ghosts or anything like it but I had seen some crazy shit with the weegie board. One of the scary stories that happened to my girlfriend was that she got a phone call in the middle of the night from one of our guy friend that was in tears asking her to undo a curse that she put on him. Apparently a week before the weird phone call, my girlfriend told my other guy friend that he should be careful riding his bike so dangerously because he might kill himself. My guy friend and the other boys were playing the weegie board and all they got is the name of my guy friend, a death by a bike accident and the name of my girlfriend and the word “curse”. I remember all the guys stopped talking with my friend for about a week. They were so scared of her. I found it very amusing. After that Incident we stopped messing with the board but we would still hang around the deserted house. Anyway I hope you enjoy this beautiful song…
What’s this song about? Brian Jones contributed the song's signature sitar riff (having taught himself to play after a visit with George Harrison), and Jagger contributed the lyrics, seemingly about a man mourning his dead girlfriend. Both electric and acoustic guitars and the background vocals are provided by Richards. The piano is played by Jack Nitzsche( Wikipedia – Paint it black).
This song is by Chevelle, quite a cool song. I’ve heard it on my Hubby’s music collection and I was very impressed. Speaking of jars, reminds me when I was about 10, I got really sick with mumps. Unfortunately I got it from both sides and I looked like the elephant man. It was really uncomfortable and because it was very contagious none of my friends were allowed to visit me. I ended up spending around a month at home. I was very sad and lonely without all my friends around me. So I captured a fly in a jar and I played with it. I remember being very happy having the little fly in the jar. Although I knew it’s quite vicious to put it in a jar so I’ve eventually released it. I was quite proud of myself that I was quick enough to catch it. I remember my mum took care of me while I was sick, she always used to take care of me when I wasn’t feeling well. It was one of the most horrific experiences I had when I was a child, not being able to go outside and play with the other kids. As a child I was always playing outside with all the kids in the neighbourhood. It was my favourite thing. I didn’t care about homework or anything else, just being outdoors and playing all kind of games. Check out this cool song about the earth…
Drummer Sam Loeffler told 99.3 The Fox that this song's subject matter reflects the quirky themes of Sci-Fi Crimes. He explained that the song is, "a kind of a play on words. It's saving the environment. It's a joke about saving the environment and it's about literally taking the earth, and putting it into jars to save it for later. It's very tongue in cheek."(Jars – Wikipedia)
This song is by Skunk Anansie. My hubby thinks “Skin” is brilliant and I have to agree. She is one hell of a talented woman and she has quite a unique appearance.
Obviously this song is about a breakup – once again ;) since I don’t have any sad breakups stories , at least I don’t remember anything that was that devastating I’ll tell you a silly story about my first kiss. Prior to my first kiss, I was very stressed about kissing a boy because back when I was a teenager my mum always told me “no matter what, don’t let the boys kiss you...” that’s after I told that there is a smoking game that I’ve been playing with my friends and whoever drops the ashes has to complete a stupid task that we all made up. We called the game “the cigarette whore”. The only concern my mum had with this game is that I might let the boys kiss me. She didn’t say anything about the smoking or the drinking – what a cool mum! Anyway, it took me awhile to get there but my first kiss was in an alternative rock club. I was very drunk! My friend was dating a guy that came to the club with all of his friends. One of the friends used to go to elementary school with me, he was in my class the first two years and then he moved away with his family to a different town. I quite liked him when I was 7 years old. Anyway, we started talking about the past and ended up kissing. The problem was that I was too drunk and between the kisses I vomited my guts out. It was quite disgusting. From some reason it didn’t put him off. It was quite a bizarre situation. He really liked me and he wanted my phone number. I wasn’t interested because I just discovered that kissing boys wasn’t that bad and I wanted to have more experiences. I’ve kissed a few more boys afterwards until I got stuck with my first boyfriend , he was a nice guy so I’ve hangedaround for a while. Now check out this awesome song…
This song is by Seal. I really like it because I agree with every word he says “never gonna survive unless we get a little crazy” this song is all about taking more chances in life and trying new things. “In a world full of people only some want to fly, isn’t that crazy?” I was addicted to this song back in the 90’s. I’ve also added “Talisman” cover version which is really good. I’m terrified of taking chances like most people, that’s why I’m stuck in a job that I’m not passionate about. I wasn’t always afraid of everything, throughout my childhood I was pretty brave and tried everything. I wasn’t scared of anything back then. I’ve enjoyed getting myself into trouble. The consequences of my actions made me the cautious person I am today. All the crazy situations that I got myself into helped me realize that I need to change my ways. I’m still having fun and I always make sure to do things that I enjoy and be around people that I love. This is something that will never change. I love music and I love reading books, and recently I’ve discovered the guitar which I enjoy very much. The thing I enjoy the most is spending time with my Hubby. He is my best friend and it’s fun to be around him, we just take it easy and try to have fun all the time. I guess I do fly in my own way, I make sure every day to do something that makes me happy , so I don’t jump from high buildings or catch really huge waves but I guess everyone has a different kind of adrenalin in life, mine is definitely music ! Check out this crazy song...
Here is a comment from songfacts website: This song was inspired by the crazy events of 1989-90, in particular the fall of the Berlin Wall. The lyrics, "And through a fractal on a breaking wall, I see you my friend, and touch your face again" appears to be a reference to the Berlin Wall coming down
This song is by The Cult. Such a great song! My Hubby used to play with a band that was doing covers and this is one of their songs. He is brilliant on the guitar!This song could have a double meaning – it either an ode for a woman or weed, one of the two. Which brings me back to my experience of smoking weed or actually it wasn’t really weed. When I was about 16, my friends and I went to a theatre festival. It was around the period when I discovered alcohol and weed. One of my friends tricked me into thinking that I’m smoking weed. She rolled up a cigarette and said that it was weed. This friend used to joke around all the time but of course I believed her and for about an hour or so I was making a fool of myself in front of all my friends. I was very embarrassed to discover that it wasn’t weed after all. I was so convinced that I was stoned. I’ve learned something from this experience – I’ve learned that I can completely control my body with my mind. I’ve learned that there is a strong connection between my body and my feelings. It was a great discovery! Check out this cool rock song...
This song is by Rage against the Machine. I remember the day this song was released, they were playing it all the time in all the clubs that I use to go to with my friends. My friends and I loved this song so much! Which reminds me that my parents use to go on overseas vacations a lot when I was young and every time they were away, my girlfriends would come for a sleep over after a night out. We all used to sleep in my parents’ bedroom. We would listen to music in my Dad’s stereo system in a very loud volume. My Dad kept the speakers up on a shelf and one time we played music so loud that one of the speakers fell on the floor and was completely broken. My Dad was very sensitive to his stereo system because it was quite expensive back then. So we managed to fix it so it wouldn’t look like something happened to it, my Dad came home and didn’t even notice it. A year after the incident, my Dad gave me his stereo system with the speakers and everything. I was stoked! I never told my Dad about the speaker incident. So I owe him an apology, I’m hoping that he doesn’t read my blog and if he does then I want him to know that I’m sorry for not telling him about it until now. By the time I wanted to confess, it was too late because I was the new owner of a broken speaker. Check out my awesome childhood song...
What’s this song about? Written about revolution against racism in security agencies, "Killing in the Name" is widely recognised as the band's signature song, and has been noted for its distinctive guitar riffs and heavy use of strong language. The song lyrics reference the allegation that some members of US police forces are members of the Ku Klux Klan organization, whose symbol is the burning cross. The BBC News website refers to it as railing against "the military–industrial complex, justifying killing for the benefit of, as the song puts it, the chosen whites."
This song is by Snow Patrol. We’ve seen them perform in V Festival and they were awesome! That’s probably their most successful song and I can understand why, it’s a damn good song! Speaking of chasing cars, when I was about 5 years old, I had a beautiful cocker spaniel dog named “Astro” which like his name was quite an astronaut. He used to chase cars every time we took him out for a walk, he chased all cars, big and small he was quite stupid! We had to keep in on the leash all the time; it was really hard to control him. He also became really aggressive when we were standing next to him while he was eating, he takes after me, I also get quite aggressive when someone is getting near my food! Anyway, One day he managed to run away from home while we my dad was about to drive away and guess what – we accidently ran him over! The stupid dog survived this horror; as a matter of fact nothing happened to him. We couldn’t control him anymore so we had to give him back to the girl that gave him to us. I wasn’t sad or anything because he was quite a difficult dog. Check out this wonderful love song...
What’s this song about? Lead singer Gary Lightbody wrote the song, sober after a binge of white wine, in the garden of producer Jacknife Lee's Kent cottage.The song has Lightbody singing a plain melody over sparse guitars, which has an ever-building crescendo.
He stated it was his "purest love song".The phrase "Chasing Cars" came from Lightbody's father, in reference to a girl Lightbody was infatuated with, "You're like a dog chasing a car. You'll never catch it and you just wouldn't know what to do with it if you did." (Wikipedia – Chasing Cars)
This song is by A Perfect Circle. My Hubby loves them very much; this is one of his favourite songs. Their lead singer Maynard James Keenan is also the lead singer of Tool. Maynard wrote this song about his mum Judith that suffered from a stroke and became paralysed. Since she was a very religious person, she became even more religious after the unfortunate accident, Maynard thought it was quite ironic that she still praised god after what she’s been thorough.
I don’t really believe in anything, I believe in people, only we can change the world and only we can make things better. I think religion is what will bring an end to this world. All the killing on behalf of “Allah” thing is quite ridicules. Also I don’t really understand why different religions think their way is better than other ways. It’s quite condescending, don’t you think? If there is a god and he is really good then all he wants us to do is to be kind and help one another.
One time my friends and I went skinny dipping in the lake. It was early in the morning and there was a religion guy on his way to pray, there was also a wondering dog that was walking after him. The guy stopped and kicked the dog. I got really angry since I cannot stand animal cruelty. So guess what I did? I got out of the water and started chasing the guy. I was wearing only my undies. Because the guy was religious he wasn’t supposed to look at naked women so he just ran away, what a coward! It was just hilarious! Even the dog was quite amused ;) Check out this anti religion song...
What’s this song about? Here is a comment from Songfacts website” Judith was Maynard James Keenan's mother's name. She was a very religious person. One day she had a stroke that left her in a wheelchair partially paralyzed. This stroke only strengthened her belief in God - something that Maynard found to be pretty ironic. The lyrics in this song reflect how he felt about the whole situation - "It's not like you killed someone, It's not like you drove a spiteful spear into his side, You praise the one who left you broken down and paralyzed." He's saying that his mother was a good person who believed in God and yet this is how she was "thanked."
This next song is by Cavo. Cool song about a lot of champagne and maybe cocaine. This song is about one hell of a party! well not really , it's actually about broken relationship again! but every song can be whatever you wanted it to be so for me it's a party song! The best party I’ve have attended was when I was maybe 17, one of my friends moved out of her house because she didn’t get along with her parents and the parents couldn’t cope with her crazy behaviour. She moved in with her aunt and uncle. Just when she started to behave, the aunt and uncle decided to go away on one weekend and left the house with my friend, a huge mistake for them and happy times for us! My dear friend has thrown the best party ever, invited everyone she’s known. It was the best party ever! There was a lot of alcohol involved and a lot of crazy youngsters that took advantage of the situation and completely smashed the house. People were throwing furniture out of the balcony, completely broke the stuff in the house. At some point I even saw someone rolling down the stairs with the computer chair which was just hilarious. People were having sex everywhere. The place was a complete chaos. Of course we stayed back to clean the mess but after this disaster my friend had to move out of her uncle’s house. It was quite funny because the all idea of her moving in with her uncle and aunt was supposed to get her back in track and it did the complete opposite which we found very entertaining. She was such a cool girl, had no boundaries whatsoever! Today she is an alternative therapist helping people with their emotional issues and she is very good at it. I guess only a person that experienced difficulties in their life can actually help other people, she is very good in her area; check out this awesome song...
