Lyrics that get lost in the mood of a song. - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

K-Wise · 10-06-2003, 11:17 PM

Lots a pretty/nice songs out there that sound great and then you read the lyrics and sometimes they're kinda dirty haha, or weird/make sense to few, rather simplistic, and just down right horribly sounding when you read em haha. So what are some songs you can think of? Of the older ones I can think of I remember back in the day hearin Jon B. on the radio singin "Pretty Girl" and thinkin it was a beautiful song and then ya read how dirty the lyrics are n shit haha totally oblivious to the fact that you used to sing em like they were nothing

Quote:

"Pretty Girl"
Written By:_ Babyface_
_
Your lips, your smile, your tenderness, ooh baby
The way you walk, I can't resist your style
When I sleep at night, I dream of you, ooh baby
I wake up wet, thinking of you, ooh baby
How can a man like me
Convince a girl like you
To be his lover and one and only
How can I make you see
That I'm the one for you
And nobody does it like me
_
Chorus:
Hey pretty girl
_ Can I be your man tonight, baby?
_ Hey pretty mama
_ Can I sleep with you tonight?
_ Hey, pretty girl when you come to my room tonight
_ I'll make you come through the night
_
Your legs around my waist so tight
I'll slide down south to taste you right
You taste so good to me
How does a man like me
Seduce a girl like you
How can I make you my one and only_
How can I make you scream
There's no one else for you
'And nobody does it like me, baby
_
Chorus:
Hey pretty girl
_ Can I be your man tonight, baby?
_ Hey pretty mama
_ Can I sleep with you tonight?
_ Hey, pretty girl when you come to my room tonight
_ I'll make you come through the night
_
Bridge:
There's a candle that's burning in my heart tonight
And the flame is full of my desire
And I can't help but desire you in my bed tonight
And I'll touch you in the places
Where no one's been before
And I'll kiss you in the places
Where men sometimes ignore
And I'll take you to a level
You've never felt before
And though you won't understand it
You'll cry and ask for more
_
Chorus:
Hey pretty girl
_ Can I be your man tonight, baby?
_ Hey pretty mama
_ Can I sleep with you tonight?
_ Hey, pretty girl when you come to my room tonight
_ I'll make you come through the night

Very sexual and kinda dirty eh? But it is written by Babyface and the man is a genius who's written dozens of beautiful songs so no big deal Heh.

Of the newer songs prolly Thurdsday's new song Signals Over The Air. Dope song but I haven't been able to catch the context of the song and why when she says his name he wants to ya know stomp it in her lungs and then collect all of her blood to put it in the radio. I mean does he hate her? Or love her? Cause if he does thats kind of a fucked up love song eh? Heh still a good song none the less. Bring em on people!!!

Asta!!

Remember 'Darling Nikki' by Prince? Cool tune, mellow beat, and a girl who masturbates in hotel lobbies and has lots of toys in her house.

Then there's 'Custard Pie' by Led Zeppelin. I'm rockin out, jammin to the groove, when all of a sudden...did he just say 'when you cut it mama, please save me a slice?' Oooooh! THAT'S what this song is about!

eple · 10-07-2003, 12:14 PM

It actually took me a while listening to RHCP before I undestood that one of those songs I were singing along to on Blood Sugar Sex Magic was about fingering some chick:

"to fingerpaint is not a sin/ i stick my middle finger in/someting something something something/I'm in your house now let me spin"

...or was that on californication?

Alright! That was a killer song, but I think the title track "War All The Time" had a more obvious meaning to it.

K-Wise · 10-07-2003, 03:59 PM

Yeah I've been sleepin on those guys man. 3 CD's total and I have none of them. If anything this new one seems pretty promising I wouldn't doubt the others are good too.

Asta!!

mercury-hg · 10-07-2003, 05:38 PM

rise inside, free your mind
raise your fist to signify
we stand in defiance of hatred and deception
if i stand alone i will fight for you
the time has come to make a difference
why have we forsaken love
the time has come to raise our voices
so rise up and fight with me
embrace what we have
it might be the last time in this life we will rise
if we find the strength to unify
hatred is a weakness, you become the victim
i believe love will overcome
time has come to make a difference
why have we forsaken one another

Killswitch Engage "Rise Inside"

this is pretty representative of KsE's lyrics which are juxtaposed against the music and vocal style: metal and growling/screaming. my friends laugh at my "devil" music, and i must admit that it does sound like it,

K-Wise · 10-07-2003, 06:07 PM

LMFAO@Them thinking that song is "devil music" what is it hardcore kinda deep deep deep screaming where ya can kinda make out what he's saying but not quite perfectly until you read the lyrics? Never heard they're music, heard good things about em, nu-metal ain't really my thing though. Most I find to be cacaphonic. Some of it has been pretty good though.

Asta!!

mercury-hg · 10-07-2003, 07:46 PM

killswitch is new metal, but not "nu-metal". there's some great old-school riffing in their songs, and melodic choruses amidst the rather harsh backdrop of the music. there's no danger of them riding the linkin park, hoobastank, staind, etc coattails, because they're simply nothing like those bands.

Oh yeah, Killswitch Engage, listening to The Element of One right now

Lot's of screaming and yelling and heavy riffs.... "This is for you, everything I am..."

That Red Hot Chili Peppers song is called The Velvet Groove and it's on Californication

"to fingerpaint is not a sin, i stick my middle finger in, your monthly blood is what I win, I'm in your house now let me spin"

K-Wise · 10-07-2003, 09:30 PM

Pretty creative that Keidis fellow. Got a link to Killswitch?

KWSN · 10-07-2003, 09:54 PM

dont paint us the perfect picture
we have visions of our own
dont give us the safe interpretation
we want, we want to know the ugly truth
we're not down to die
and be this typecast culture
we're not down to die
and be the faceless soldiers
dont sell us the perfect image
we'll struggle to find out ourselves
we want the unpopular challenge
we want, we want to test our intellect
we have learned this devotion
we are programmed, conditioned
senseless, senseless emotions
we have lost our desire to think alone
we're not down

That song is Typecase Modulator by Snapcase, mistaken similarly to Killswitch as "evil" or "angry" because of the volume and aggressiveness of the chords... doesn't sound very angry to me. Actually sounds quite intelligent. Because it is.

jwoody · 10-08-2003, 01:50 AM

Nothing hidden in the meaning here, in fact I can't see any meaning at all.
Didn't stop Blondie's 'Rapture' becoming one the all time dance floor fillers of all time though.

Fab Five Freddie told me everybody's fly
DJ's spinnin' are savin' my mind
Flash is fast, Flash is cool
Francois sez fas, Flashe' no do
And you don't stop, sure shot
Go out to the parking lot
And you get in your car and you drive real far
And you drive all night and then you see a light
And it comes right down and lands on the ground
And out comes a man from Mars
And you try to run but he's got a gun
And he shoots you dead and he eats your head
And then you're in the man from Mars
You go out at night, eatin' cars
You eat Cadillacs, Lincolns too
Mercurys and Subarus
And you don't stop, you keep on eatin' cars
Then, when there's no more cars
You go out at night and eat up bars where the people meet
Face to face, dance cheek to cheek
One to one, man to man
Dance toe to toe
Don't move to slow, 'cause the man from Mars
Is through with cars, he's eatin' bars
Yeah, wall to wall, door to door, hall to hall
He's gonna eat 'em all
Rapture, be pure
Take a tour, through the sewer
Don't strain your brain, paint a train
You'll be singin' in the rain
I said don't stop, do punk rock

Well now you see what you wanna be
Just have your party on TV
'Cause the man from Mars won't eat up bars when the TV's on
And now he's gone back up to space
Where he won't have a hassle with the human race
And you hip-hop, and you don't stop
Just blast off, sure shot
'Cause the man from Mars stopped eatin' cars and eatin' bars
And now he only eats guitars, get up!

K-Wise · 10-08-2003, 02:39 AM

I think I'm now just a little bit dumber having read those lyrics. Wasn't that the first rap song played on MTV too? Sad....so very very sad.

I bomb atomically/Socrates philosophies and hypothesis can't define how I be droppin these/Mockeries, lyrically perform armed robbery/Flee with the lottery possibly they spotted me.......OUT!

Asta!!
