Hm, let me ask Mr. John Lennon...

Mother, you had me
But I never had you
I wanted you
But you didn't want me
So
I got to tell you
Goodbye
Goodbye
Father, you left me
But I never left you
I needed you
But you didn't need me
So
I just got to tell you
Goodbye
Goodbye
Children, don't do
What I have done
I couldn't walk
And I tried to run
So
I got to tell you
Goodbye
Goodbye
Mama don't go
Daddy come home
Mama don't go
Daddy come home
Mama don't go
Daddy come home
Mama don't go
Daddy come home...


Hm... survey says... hella yus! :{P

Hmmmm....i wonder:
Hey, Jude, don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better

Hey, Jude, don't be afraid
You were made to go out and get her
The minute you let her under your skin
Then you begin to make it better.

And any time you feel the pain, hey, Jude, refrain
Don't carry the world upon your shoulders
Well don't you know that its a fool who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder

Hey, Jude! Don't let her down
You have found her, now go and get her
Remember, to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better.

So let it out and let it in, hey, Jude, begin
You're waiting for someone to perform with
And don't you know that it's just you, hey, Jude,
You'll do, the movement you need is on your shoulder

Hey, Jude, don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better


but sometimes it can just be for the hell of it, it doesnt always have to be heartfelt. like chuckberrys 'my dingaling' thats just a funny song, no real emotion in it, ya know.

The only songs I get "emotional" per se are "Free As A Bird" and "Real Love" for obvious reasons, I guess, but it's not really the lyrics, just the whole atmosphere of the songs.

Raul, you're pretty cool, I've never had a problem with you, but saying that lyrics do not convey emotion insults me to the core of my being. Most types of music are only half-done without lyrics. I can't believe you'd say lyrics don't convey emotion.

By the way, I picked 'sometimes' because there are occasions were complete bullshit is written in a song. Like this Brian Jonestown Massacre song called 'Number 1 Hit Jam' that goes Hey Hey Hey over and over again over a bad ass rock n roll track.

Lust for Maddy is also an emotion.

But I bet you already knew that.
