I love complex lyrics that really make me want to listen to the song to understand them. Some of my favourites include Queen's Innuendo and Bohemian Rhapsody, and Alanis Morissette's The Couch. This week's article also looks at Thank U by Morissette.

oooh. My all time favorite song lyrics are from the song "Love Minus Zero/No Limit" by Bob Dylan. Just the best song ever, I just love the lines "My love she speaks like silence without ideals or violence. She doesn't have to say she's faithful yet she's true like ice, like fire."

I love Bob Dylan's lyrics too and I find it amusingly ironic that his voice "hides" the depth of his lyrics. You have to listen really carefully. I love Things have changed in particular.

I'm not sure if I've heard that one or not (he has so many sometimes I just lose track of a few), which album is it on? Is it an old one or new? I'd like to see if I've got it in my collection so I can get it out and listen.

It's fairly new - it was part of the soundtrack for the movie Wonderboys. The video shows Dylan riding in a car with Michael Douglas, singing (or maybe he's muttering, and that's why Michael Douglas looks so uncomfortable <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> )

I remember now Things Have Changed drawing me in when I watched Wonder Boys, but I never got the album--It's on Love and Theft right? That album has another great one-- Mississippi. I'll check out your lyrics links--thanks.
Sorry to hijack the thread here, I'm done fanatically ranting about Dylan.

I really love some of The Beatles quirkier songs like "Lucy in the sky with diamonds" and "I am the walrus" <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Great article Elle! I think some of my favorite lyrics are "Change Your Mind" by Sister Hazel and "Ray of Light" by Madonna <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
