It's like in English when teacher's try to tell you the author was saying this and put this in as their moral and they wrote it because the mood was such and such. It's bullshit. That't not what any of it was. It was raw emotion, and releasing it. She wrote it feeling something, wether it was hurt, apathy, love, anything. And she got it out. And the beauty of this song is how we can interpret it into our lives. If it was about the jews for you, then fine. But if it was about the heartwrenching agony you felt when someone you loved left, great. This song is anything you need it to be to help you get through these awful days. That's what's so breathtaking about her music. i think... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/22/09 it is about time. and the world, and humanity. and how we neglect the world and ourselves, and dont care what happens when we are not here anymore. we just follow the flow but people should wake up and start to live, because we only have a short while to do it in. we cant just exist, and plan to live when we get old. we might die tomorrow. we should live every single day with all the intensity we can manage. it is about the meaning of life. irony | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/12/09 This song defines perfection in the most ironic sense for me. Everything about it is amazing; the puzzle she creates which is allowing us each the opportunity to find a different meaning in it for ourselves, the sound of it, the words she uses, and the fact that she made such an incredible work of art in only 25 minutes. This song, to me, has held so many meanings, but the irony comes from the fact that I initially fell in love with this song at the same time I fell in love with a person (the same person who actually introduced this song to me) and that person inevitably broke my heart. It signifies a warning sign. To me. my interpretation of this song | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/7/09 this is the best meaning i could come up for this song. It is such a powerful song, and i love it. It gives you so much to think about. I believe that everyone has their own meaning for it, and that they base it on an experience they have had and interpret it through their own life. where are we? what the hell is going on? the dust has only just begun to form crop circles in the carpet sinking feeling (they had just starting building their life together now its falling apart.) spin me round again and rub my eyes, this can't be happening when busy streets amass with people would stop to hold their heads heavy (she cant get over the fact that her relationship is ending and if the world felt the same asshe did nobody could function.) hide and seek trains and sewing machines all those years they were here first (hes been sneaking around and hiding things from her and she figured it out. shes saying that he has a whole other family and they were before her.) oily marks appear on walls where pleasure moments hung before the takeover, the sweeping insensitivity of this still life ( she took down all the pictures of them, and it hurts to see the empty spaces where they used to be.) hide and seek trains and sewing machines (oh, you won't catch me around here) blood and tears (hearts) they were here first (she wont go near this other family and she never wants to see him again because she is so heart broken.) Mmmm whatcha say, Mmm that you only meant well? well of course you did Mmmm whatcha say, Mmmm that it's all for the best? Of course it is Mmmm whatcha say? Mmmm that it's just what we need you decided this whatcha say? Mmmm what did she say? (he chose to go to his other family and leave her behind,he tried to tell her that its the best thing for him to do, and its best for both of them, and she wanted to know what him and his other wife talked about, he tried to say that he didnt mean to hurt anyone but she knows its bull.) ransom notes keep falling out your mouth mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut outs speak no feeling no I don't believe you you don't care a bit, you don't care a bit (hide and seek) ransom notes keep falling out your mouth mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut outs (hide and seek) speak no feeling no I don't believe you you don't care a bit, you don't care a (you don't care a) bit (hide and seek) oh no, you don't care a bit oh no, you don't care a bit (hide and seek) oh no, you don't care a bit you don't care a bit you don't care a bit (he keeps trying to make things better, but nothing he says will ever make her take him back and she will never believe him again, and she doesnt believe he ever cared for her. Hmm... | Reviewer: Leandra X. | 3/4/09 See, although it might be about a cheating lover, I know that Imogen usually writes about things of greater magnitude than the usual "cheating, sadness, love" that people usually write about these days. It's closer to the fact that you can interpret it how you like because there is no right or wrong answer. However, I heard someone say it was about the Holocaust. And that is exactly what it sounds like to me. Especially because it sounds so heart-wrenching and emotional... I can see these ghostly images floating around with the lyrics. It sounds like the beginning of the events and then leading to the end about people waiting to do something about it till it was almost too late. suicide? | Reviewer: ingawah | 3/2/09 I think the song is about a deep loss of self. I don't think the person narrating is talking about someone else going away from them, but that they, in a sense, are going away from themselves; that they have become a differant person--a monster ("a monster/this can't be happening,") To me, it sounds like the narrator is talking herself in and out of death and killing herself. These are her last glimpses at what she has left: "oily marks" that of a stained life; "pleasure marks" the good points of the stained life; that "it's all for the best" if they just go away; "ransom notes keep falling from your mouth"--could it be she's treating to throw it all away? I think there could be even deeper meanings than this, too; this is the only one I could describe the best, and even then, I don't know if my message made it through. Review | Reviewer: Adam | 2/26/09 I think the song is about forest animals who come home one day and there is a subdivision where their home used to be. From an areal view the streets could form the patterns of the "crop circles" in the animals' "carpet". The part where it is talking about "trains" and "sewing machines" and how "they were here first" is talking about how the animals were the first ones here, not people. Lets face it, our society tells us that "this is all for the best" and "that it's just what we need". The Host by Stephenie Meyer | Reviewer: Lauren | 2/20/09 I was listening to this song and it sounds like she wrote it for this nivel named the host by stephenie meyer the same woman who wrote the twilight saga. it is a wonderful book. its about these "aliens" who takeover earth and their souls live inside of their "hosts". Well the last man on earth just met the last woman on earth and they are 9 years apart and in this great love. The girls name is Melanie she is like the lead character. the alien that lives inside her is "wanderer". She has lived on 9 different planets now &conquered them all. its a great book. please buy it and read it! You wont regret it! Hide and seek | Reviewer: Pooje | 2/13/09 i just heard this song today, my dance troupe did this song, the choregography was beautiful, thanks to the teacher, yvette!! ♥ ya!! anyways, i was immediately attached. the choregography was normal people, looking like they were living inside their own world, then at the end, they all looked lost, and on the last note, they looked up into the heavens.
