When you are singing along to your favorite music, do you know what the artist is actually saying? Not his words, but what he is singing about? For example AC/DC's The Jack and countless others.

My teacher says I'm sort of "hippie-dippie" in my thinking. Yes, while its good to know the purpose of something I think its better when someone can relate to something differently. Like, The Rolling Stone's song Moonlight Mile may not mean the same to you as it does to me. But some songs the meaning is perfectly clear....like CCR's Fortunate Son.
Good question by the way!

Purple Rain - Prince Nelson
Enormously successful soundtrack to the extremely successful motion picture. This is the record that got Tipper Gore to start the PMRC: the lyrics to "Darling Nikki" were too much for her. Working closely with a backing band (the Revolution) for the first time, he has distorted guitars, arena-rock anthems, funky calls for sexual abandon, angry love songs, spiritual redemption... what more could you want? It's divided among rock, dance and ballads, sometimes more than one at a time ("The Beautiful Ones"). His messianic tendencies get a bit out of control ("I Would Die 4 U") but are fun anyway, and he makes up for it with genre-bending lunacy like "Computer Blue." The #1 pop hits were "When Doves Cry" (a dance track with no bass line!) and the rocker "Let's Go Crazy," while the title guitar ballad peaked at #2. (DBW)

I can usually figure out what they are saying - then again I'm listening to a different genre (r&b). If I don't know what they are saying I look up the lyrics on the internet.

Haha....when I was a kid, I loved that "do a little dance, make a little love" song...haha....i had no idea what they were talking about....
But I mean...i do agree that we add our on interpretations.....like with stairway to heaven....I have heard about a dozen different views on what it means....its all up to the listener.

Yeah, for the most part, I know what the band is trying to say literally & figuratively...if not I try to find out.

I think that we all put our own interpretations onto our fave songs.I heard a singer say that he prefers that as the songs are personal to us then.

I always insert 'I'm washing my bum, washing my bum' to every song I hear, even if I DO know all the words
