Interpretation of Amy Winehouse's song "You Know That I'm No Good"



Summary


This song is about a girl who can't stick to one. She's in love with a guy, who is also very in love with her. She's trying so hard to stay faithful to him but she just can't. They split up, but when she cried for him and she said she was gonna change, he decided for them to get married. And when they were married she repeated her crime, and he didn't give her any reaction. He got so fed up with her cheating that he just shrugged his shoulders and gave her the silent treatment. And she felt worse.

Interpretation of Amy Winehouse's song "Tears Dry on Their Own"


Amy Winehouse - Tears Dry On Their Own by AmyWinehouse



Summary

This beautiful song is about loving someone who doesn't love you back, or a bad romance. And the hard thing about this song's story is that the person she loves is using her feelings for him to take advantage of her. She regrets everything that she's done with him but whenever they're together she just forgets everything. She feels that love is being foolish. And If she's gonna be a fool, better be fool for the one she loves. But in the latter part of the song, she decides to choose herself. She left him. It was painful for her, yes. But she's looking forward to finding her mr. right.

Interpretation of Coldplay's "Viva La Vida"



Viva La Vida=Long live the Life

Summary

Reading Between the Lines

The song is about someone who used to be powerful. He had everything in his hand, and it made people hate him. He used everything in his power to keep his position which made him change. And when he made a single but huge mistake, everyone was waiting for his beheading and he lost everything he owned. And when he lost everything, all that he could have is his faith. He used all his vacant time ( which is all day, since he has nothing to do anymore) worshiping and hearing preachers and he became religious.

A classic story of Richest to Rags and finding salvation in religion.

Reading Beyond The Lines

This is a story about death. A person believes he has everything going good in his life, and when he died he was shaken, and everything bad he has done flashed to him and he realized all the bad thing he has done. And for the last seconds before facing St. Peter, he's trying to be religious and all but everything's too late now, and he just feels like St. Peter wont allow him to enter God's kingdom.

Hence the title, Viva La Vida=Long Live the Life
Live your life with a Godly purpose because you never know when your time will come.

Interpretation of Green day's song "21 guns"

Summary

The song is about fighting a good fight, but not the fights unworthy of fighting for. You only got one life, and just one 21 gun salute, avail of it. Live your life an honorable life and give up the petty things.

You should know what/who you are living for. Live for yourself. If you're living for someone else, what will happen to you if that person leaves you? And you can't run to your family and friends anymore because they've already warned you of that predicament, and running to them would only mean eating your pride and proving them right. You'll just be alone. And all you'd be are ruins. Ruins of what you and your significant other used to be.

Interpretation of The Fray's song "How to Save a Life"


Summary

This song is a very emotional and depressing song about the death of a friend from committing suicide. The persona tried everything to save his friend but apparently not enough, since his friend died. And He's beating himself over it.

Interpretation of Katy Perry's song "ET"



Summary

Reading between the lines

This song is about a girl who met this foreign guy online, and then fell in love with him. She experienced things with him that she has never even thought would happen to her and made her want to leave everything she has in her country, just to be with him.


Reading beyond the lines

This song is about loving someone who people think is out of your league. But you love that someone so much that you are willing to lose everything that you have and don't mind everything that people say about that person because you know that you love that person. And you're sure that that person loves you too. And you feel like everything is magical,mystical and very out of this world. That is how you feel when you're really in love, when the words and adjectives in the world cannot describe how it feels like.

Being in LOVE with someone is light years away from being in a relationship with someone.
