Let's get lyrical!!
ok, so this sounded like a good thread idea....someone picks some lyrics, and essentially rips them apart....say what that song/those lyrics make you feel....say anything.....others can join in desciphering that song or they can post another one....also, this isn't aboslutely necessary but it would be nice if you would include an upload of the song....so we know what you're talkin about....
my pick: The smiths - There is a light that never goes out Take me out tonight Where theres music and theres people And theyre young and alive Driving in your car I never never want to go home Because I havent got one Anymore Take me out tonight Because I want to see people and i Want to see life Driving in your car Oh, please dont drop me home Because its not my home, its their Home, and Im welcome no more And if a double-decker bus Crashes into us To die by your side Is such a heavenly way to die And if a ten-ton truck Kills the both of us To die by your side Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine Take me out tonight Take me anywhere, I dont care I dont care, I dont care And in the darkened underpass I thought oh god, my chance has come at last (but then a strange fear gripped me and i Just couldnt ask) Take me out tonight Oh, take me anywhere, I dont care I dont care, I dont care Driving in your car I never never want to go home Because I havent got one, da ... Oh, I havent got one And if a double-decker bus Crashes into us To die by your side Is such a heavenly way to die And if a ten-ton truck Kills the both of us To die by your side Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine Oh, there is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out There is a light and it never goes out The Smiths - There is a light that never goes out ( this is a live version, i like it more than the album version ) this is a pretty straight forward song, about a man who, fed up with problems, wants nothin more than to go out and be with the person he loves. the chorus fucks me up more than i can describe...i've never been in love, and i'm a terrible romantic, so i hope this is what it feels like.... the most heartbreaking part of the song is "And in the darkened underpass I thought oh god, my chance has come at last (but then a strange fear gripped me and i Just couldnt ask)..." ..you can feel the immensity of his emotions...he's harbored them for so long and still can't say a word for fear of a negative response......i get the chills every time i hear it.....i'd explode if anyone ever felt that way about me....and he was gonna ask..can you believe how sweet that is?? he was gonna ask ( probably ) if he could kiss him/her!! dear lord! the general feel of the song,that the mere proximity to a loved one is enough, is just so fucking beautiful .... i wonder what the "there is a light that never goes out" part means....the light is his love for him/her? ok...now you go....or say what you feel about this song.....

It is one of his best.
And I can see why you like it so much. It has a 'folk' feel. A beautiful song. Edit: Imagine feeling like that and then being made to feel, like in the song, 'I Know It's Over'. You know what I'm talking about. |

Oh your such a miserable bastard mate. mmm...now who does that remind us of. *coughmorriseycough*
Well you'll be pleased to hear that after years of celibacy, even HE has found love. Hope for you yet mate. *sings; Oh I can feel, the soil falling over my head...and as I climb into an empty bed, Oh well* Nothing more miserable than a moody Mancunian mate. |

I'll even go one further and say he may and I mean may have had a 'thing' for Marr. He'll have suffered it in silence...typical of the man. Unrequited love...worse than death itself. |
