Dear Reader, Some songs I love. I am actually a useless interpreter of lyrics, and very often am unable to guess just what a song is really about. Elsewhere on this site, [ Interests > Music > To start with ], I confess to knowing a lot of songs, but not understanding many. So this blog is not intended as an analysis or interpretation of a song's meaning. I will let you search for better places on the interweb to lead you to conclusions on that score. As I say, some songs I love, and some lyrics I love too. This will be an occasional blog, published as and when I get there. I hope you enjoy the ramblings. Ian "Yellow" by Coldplay From their first album "Parachutes", released in 2000. The repetitive slow structure of this song appeal to me, as do the very simple words in each verse. Here is the video: <"Yellow" by Coldplay> At the Viva La Vida concert at Wembley Stadium in London, I happily sang along to "Yellow", but the lines which grab me every time are : "Your skin Oh yeah, your skin and bones Turn into something beautiful You know, you know I love you so You know I love you so" "Yellow"
