A List of Really Bad Song Lyrics
Some people may hate me for this opinion piece, but let's be honest, some lyrics today are so poorly written that it just makes you wonder, "What the heck were these people thinking when they wrote them"? I've compiled my own list of the strangest lyrics in songs I've heard over the years. You may not agree with me. You may think I'm attacking what you deem a lyrical genius. But I am just being a realist. Whether you like these artists or not, these lyrics are questionable and I'm calling them out.

Best Marilyn Manson Songs
When it comes to gothic and hard rock, one name instantly comes to mind...Marilyn Manson. He is one of the leading goth musical artists in the world of rock-n-roll. All of his songs have been known to be both dark and challenging to the typical hard rock culture. This made the fans more addicted to his music (especially when it came to the gothic culture fans who followed him). There are some of his songs that are considered the best Marilyn Manson songs ever, while other songs of his that were just as good were not considered “hits” on the billboard charts.

"Exile" Taylor Swift and Bon Iver Song Critique
From the first time listening to “Exile,” to the hundredth time listening to the song, I like it just as much every time. So much so, I decided to write a song critique. There are three elements to the song that make it beautiful and haunting all at once.

Why Lord Huron's Frozen Pines is a healing song about life changes
Lord Huron has made many songs that can emanate a place of peace with the songs they create, they have created interesting stories to relate to. They have made songs about revenge, scorn, and rendezvous, and then there is Frozen Pines, which is a song for the soul.

20 Famous Figures in Bob Dylan Songs
As we hit "Dylan in a Day" part twenty, I would just like to take this milestone to cover twenty famous real-life figures in Bob Dylan songs. These people have to be referenced by name, mentioned at least once in the song and nothing else is needed of them. If they are overtly analysed then good for them, but if they are just used as a symbol then that's alright too.

The Social Nightmare of "I Dreamed I Saw St. Augustine"
When I first heard this song I was a teenager and the very first thing I got from it is that someone seriously does not want to be a part of this witch-hunt culture of people who are religious or believe in something that others are against. Bob Dylan, as we know is white, and there are a group of white people who witch-hunt others who are not like them as we all know. We won’t say their name since we don’t want to give them traction. But in this song, there is a clear want to separate the narrator from any time in which people would have done this by taking a historical perspective. Well, that’s just what I get from it.
