Under The Bridge - Red Hot Chili Peppers
A lot of people I spoke too seem to think its about his love for the city of LA, but its actually about his Heroin use in LA
It was recently told to me that "Shiny Happy People" by R.E.M is actually about manic depressives taking pills.
Also that Cornflake Girl by Tori Amos is about female castration
This may or may not be true. I don't know.
However, what songs can you think of that sound as though they may mean one thing, but in fact mean entirely something else. Maybe something horrid.
Under The Bridge - Red Hot Chili Peppers
A lot of people I spoke too seem to think its about his love for the city of LA, but its actually about his Heroin use in LA. Hence the last verse being omitted in the All Saints cover of the song
Quote:
"Under the bridge downtown
Is where I drew some blood
Under the bridge downtown
I could not get enough
Under the bridge downtown
Forgot about my love
Under the bridge downtown
I gave my life away"
So let's talk about different song meanings. Do you know any song meanings that would surprise someone?
