We always hear about song lyrics that we deeply connect to on a personal level, but what about ones that are the opposite of your experiences and/or vibe? I’ll start first:

“I got money in the bank.”

    Quite a lot of Beatles songs are a bit creepy. Take Norwegian Wood for example - he goes back to this woman’s flat, she doesn’t want to sleep with him, he sleeps in her bath instead of just leaving, and in the morning, after she’s gone to work, he sets fire to her house.

      ! The melody of that is so calming. I’ve never listened to the lyrics.

      Thank you! I love that song so now I get to listen to it in a new light.

        No worries, I’m glad I didn’t spoil it for you :-)

        I must admit I hadn’t realised the arson part until quite recently, I had always thought that it just meant he lit a fire in the fireplace to keep warm, but apparently not!
