lyrics

Could you imagine blowing out birthday candles while everyone hummed Happy Birthday? What about a New Year’s party without the stroke of midnight being followed by “Should old acquaintance be forgot…?” Lyrics are more powerful than simply being words to music. For example: A $50,000 charitable donation was made in exchange for finding out who the lyrics of a Carly Simon song were about. Lyrics have spent time before a U.S. Federal court. The FBI investigated the lyrics of “Louie, Louie” by The Kingsmen. Lyrics can define a cultural movement, such as the late 60’s youth movement in “For What it’s Worth” by Buffalo Springfield or “We Shall Overcome” forever being associated with the civil rights movement. Whether they’re words that changed your life or just something nice to hear while you’re jogging, we’ve got a massive source of lyrics, song meanings and artist information.
