I love the Artist:  Owl City. However, some of his songs make no sense to me. Such as this one

I love the song, but I have no idea what it means oh andIf anyone knows what this song means please tell me  ;)

 

 

Anyways, Any songs you know that make no sense lyrics wise?

Any song can make sense depending on how you interpret it.

"That's Amore" by Dean Martin makes no sense. Just look at the two most famous lyrics.   "When the moon hits your eyes". The moon has never hit my eyes. It has always stayed in its correct location,

Apprarently Def Leppard just improvised the lyrics in the studio, and I suppose they're sex related somehow. Thing is, the most obvious interpretation for the lyrics is kinda "gay".

I think I can help you there, analyzing songs is something I love to do anyway. 

 

Basically it's the guy being stuck all the way across the country from this girl. Him in California, her in Florida. He has this girl stuck in his head since he's so used to being with her all the time. Everything reminds him of her and he hopes that the little things remind her of him too. It's sad but in a happy way since it's implied they'll see each other again. 

 

If you want something more in depth let me know and I'll get on it.  :catface:

I had a song but completely blanked on it now but I'll post it if I remember.

Owl City has always been known to make "dreamy" songs. Usually focus on the subconscious state of mind.

 

Look at how Fireflies is spelled out... completely talking about insomnia and then living in a world of no sleep and permanent dreams.Which sound more like comas. O_O

and a remix version that is amazing.

It's just something that kinda comes to me, my English teacher in High School made kind of a big deal about way over analyzing stuff but I enjoyed doing it even before that. If I was comfortable with a design I'd put it as a cutie mark on my OC

Also you forgot a version of Fireflies, the pony one :P

There's a difference between lyrics not making sense to you because you don't know the intended poetic meaning, and lyrics that were never intended to make sense. An example for the latter would be "The Riddle" by Nik Kershaw:

 

  • Brohoof 1

All you have to do is take a bunch of letters! Add it to the thread! Now just take a little something bold, not italic! A bit of underline, just a pinch! Writing these words is such a cinch! Add a teaspoon of punilla! Add a little more, and you count to four, and you always get your filler... Onehundred! So sweet and tasty! Hundred! Don't be too hasty! Hundred! Hundred, hundred, HUNDRED!

Just about every song off of the Foo Fighters debut album. Some of the lyrics just look like a bunch random words strung together. Here, I'll give you some examples.

 

From This Is A Call:

 

"Them balloons are pretty big
And say they should
Ever fall to ground
Call the magic marker"

 

From Weenie Beenie:

 

"I'm molasses hung in rent
Read a sponsor one shot no post-show
Tear it off, but not a lot, it's not enough to debate
As if you blame real and stagnate
Big shit no shit"

 

From Wattershed:

 

"I stick it to the mailman
I'm pinned against a pot plant
I'm sick of all the sun-tan
Oily with the ray-ban"

I have a perfect example of a song that doesn't make any sense:

I'm getting a headache listening to this, and I'm not even paying attention to the lyrics.

Add a teaspoon of punilla! Add a little more, and you count to four, and you always get your filler... Onehundred! So sweet and tasty! Hundred! Don't be too hasty! Hundred!

Is it even possible to make sense out of this song?!

It makes a lot of sense. But I don't feel like writing an essay now.

It is a beautiful and moving piece regarding the human quest to comprehend the utterances of the noble canide vulpes.

 

Any song can make sense depending on how you interpret it.

 

I agree with this, essentially. Whether or not a song was written with anything in particular in mind, you can give it meaning.

"That's Amore" by Dean Martin makes no sense. Just look at the two most famous lyrics.

 

"When the moon hits your eyes". The moon has never hit my eyes. It has always stayed in its correct location, orbiting the Earth.

 

"Like a big pizza pie". Even if the moon had hit my eyes, and it hasn't, it wouldn't be "like a pizza pie". I don't put slices of pizza in my eyes. I put them in my mouth. The difference is: eating pizza is enjoyable. Being hit by the moon, which apparently weighs 81 billion tons, wouldn't be enjoyable. It'd be deadly. I'd be crushed into nothingness instantly.

Maybe what was meant is the image of the moon. Hitting your eyes, meaning the moon 'stares at you'. And especially if you're hungry, you could come up with the analogy of the moon being like a pizza. The moon being like one, not hitting your eyes like one. Sentences aren't always structured in the same way, especially when poetry is involved.

It makes absolutely no sense at all. Some girl wanting...I don't know what.

I know. My analysis is intentionally flawed because I was trying to be an overly-literal buzzkiller. :)
