Day 6
I really like this song despite my feelings on religion but I'm not sure if the song is anti or pro or somewhere between

I like this one, because it reminds me of a bit of Leonard Cohen's body of work, balancing the sacred and sensual. It uses the religious imagery to describe the carnal one, and it doesn't exclude the negatives ("I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies/I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife" is far from a positive look), but keeps the religious and sacrificial images. And he does it in condemnation of the current church - "Every Sunday's getting more bleak/ A fresh poison each week/"We were born sick", you heard them say it/My church offers no absolutes." Her response is come worship in the bedroom. There can be spirituality in carnality. Again, back to Cohen -- that is one of his foundations.

Just my understanding.
 
Day 6: A song you don’t understand

Love this song but no idea what it’s about

Dexy’s Midnight Runners - Come On Eileen

Apropos of nothing, I had a shirt that said, "I came on Eileen."

I could give some insight (it involves Oregon, heh) into what parts of it mean if you want.
 
Day 6: A song you don’t understand

Beck - Loser

He sings words. They are English words. I however do not know what these English words, when put together, are supposed to mean.

“With the plastic eyeballs, spray-paint the vegetables
Dog food stalls with the beefcake pantyhose“

2 Live Crew - Face Down Ass Up
