The Reviews about Translating The Name (page 1/ 2)
------ performed by Saosin


A touching song about abortion | Reviewer: TranslatingTheLyrics | 5/5/09

This song is quite obviously about abortion.
The character's mom decided to abort her second son

"I Was Only One, And We Weren't Prepared For One" which means they didn't want another kid.

"Oh Start Saving Green And Before Breathing"
This about saving money for the abortion (before breathing is a reference to still being in the womb)

"I've Been Watching, Rose Give In To It, Severing The Ties Between Mother And Son"
This is as clear as it gets

"Now Things Look Lovely, Lonely Boy, It's Midnight And I'll Deny"
The character, being an only child, wishes he had a brother.

"Oh, I Once Saw Many Place The End"
A reference to anyone he had seen get an abortion.

Well there you have it, this song was actually pretty straightforward compared to some others.



no abortion... | Reviewer: aime | 1/26/09

this song is not about abortion, so just shut up if you don't know anything about the band..
this song has deeper meaning in its lyrics...
you just can't say that it's abortion because of the line "severing the ties between mother and son"... this line talks about being away from something important, since it's coupled with "rose give in to it"... rose petals fall from the flower itself, and it's like the rose has no beauty anymore... not some abortion shit!!!
get it???
anyways, i've been trying to figure out what the other lines mean... only anthony and God knows what saosin's songs mean...



disagree | Reviewer: max francois | 1/9/09

this song IS NOT about any anthony's struggle-shit. translating the name and seven years was the two first songs anthony sang on for saosin, and he recorded over two instrumentals before he was even in the band. my opinion is that this song is about abortion.



meaning | Reviewer: meesho | 12/5/08

it has been said that this song is about anthony's struggle with Saosin in being homesick and all yet he didn't clarify that with his bandmates until after recording then left the band before or during the warped tour and story of the years singer took over for the rest of the tour which i was so disappointed to see. Anthony then formed circa survive but personally i like old saosin better than new and circa survive



meaning | Reviewer: soulja boy's wifey | 2/28/08

JUST SO Y'ALL PEOPLE KNOW, ANTHONY GREEN STARTED A NEW BAND CALLED circa survive AND IT IS AWESOME!!!!

back to saosin....
But honestly, i don't really understand the meaning of this song, very confusing. The drummer kicks ass, the vocals, insane with his accent and the guitars pawn all! they have such good chemistry and lyrics it's like their the ultimate band. I find Cove (the new lead singer) is okay, i mean, compared to Anthony, he's fine. His lyrics are pretty simple, not much mystery behind them but still good.

Anyway, i don't understand the meaning of this song so if anyone does, please let the world know!



omg | Reviewer: bethzabeth | 12/29/07

This band is beyond amazing... so sad to know anthony is not in anymore... seriously they can cause an orgasm just by listening... all their songs are great... they are freaking gods if u ask me... everything is mouth dropping their lyrics, voices, the band playing ect... just go buy the cd seriously I could keep going on how great they are but u should listen to it for urself...



"say-ocean" | Reviewer: Swansen | 10/29/07

This album and this band was so completely and absolutely amazing. The writing and anthony green play like this is also so astonishing. And its so crazy how anthony pronounces certain words, it sounds so cool, but its weird how the new singer(cove) does that same thing, to bad anthony doesn't still sound like this.



AWZUUMMMM | Reviewer: Rob | 10/2/07

Saosin is my life... anthony green was the perfect blend... but da new guy aint bad tooo.. huge range of dese two guys. Me being a band vox myself i can say dat wid full surity dis whole band has got immaculous talent!!!
