Songs you never got the meaning of

[RadioNate]

Prince is now a Jehovah's Witness and doesn't do his sexy songs in concert anymore.

when did that happen? I saw him less than 18 months ago and he certainly did all the 'sexy' stuff. In fact my friend remarked that he never realized Prince was so dirty.

And I maintain Hotel California is about LA and the music industry it is allegorical.

According to the band, Hotel California is about the music industry. There is a link someone posted for snopes that explains it better. I was pretty disappointed when I read that though. (It's the same site I found when I went in search of an answer) It just took some of the fun out of it for me. It's still my favorite song though.


Come Together by Aerosmith is another one that is pretty interesting....

The Beatles song? Lennon loved to write non-sense lyrics. I Am the Walrus, anyone? Popular believe is that it is a campaign song for the Timothy Leary roadshow.

This is the article I read:
Hell Freezes Over

(I confess to reading right-wing columns at Townhall sometimes.) I'm not like that though, really!
