I absolutely love the down-to-earth song writing on them. I am also a big fan of Buffalo, but that's not in print anymore I don't believe. If you can get a hold of The Early Hits anywhere it has a good mixed of Buffalo, Rain Summer and some of the other early stuff (obviously). </p> <div class="signature">Parks</div> http://sk6ersfans.com/topic/amy-lyrics#post-3328 Sat, 17 May 2008 21:33:18 +0000 AnthemSoSweet 3328@http://sk6ersfans.com/ <p>kickstarted - you didn't ask for it, but I'm going to offer it anyways... </p> <p>For a new fan, this is the order I would suggest: Glassjaw Boxer/Self-titled/Lucky 11/Bulletproof Heart/One Night in Brooklyn &#38; DVD/South Of Stephen</p> <p>But in all honesty, my opinion doesn't matter because they are all great.

I've only got the Glassjaw Boxer album so far (bought it at the show in Myrtle Beach, SC), and I was hoping to read some lyrics from other albums to figure out which ones to buy first. I searched the web but haven't come up with much thusfar. Any pointers? </p> <div class="signature">\"We often feel sad in the presence of music without words; and often more than that in the presence of music without music.\"- Mark Twain</div> http://sk6ersfans.com/topic/amy-lyrics#post-3223 Wed, 07 May 2008 12:31:38 +0000 AnthemSoSweet 3223@http://sk6ersfans.com/ <p>It could very well be "biding my time"....I try, but I am must admit that I am not great as I like to pretend I am at writing out lyrics.

I would say that SK/Amy's mom was the one "caught in the middle of the teenage love affair," because it sounds weird to say a baby is caught in a love affair. </p> <p>I am somewhat unclear on who the second verse refers to ("The daughter let her hair down...the couple didn't stand a chance") but my best guess is it's again Amy/SK's mom since that couple falls apart in the next verse.</p> <p>Back on the other note, "Bees" is not the same as "Be." It was played at a few shows in 05 (<a href="http://www.archive.org/details/skellogg2005-09-13.spc4.flac16">like this one</a>). It starts, "Well the rules run right but they ain't true, the things people say can be a bit cruel..." </p> http://sk6ersfans.com/topic/amy-lyrics#post-3181 Sat, 03 May 2008 09:42:46 +0000 Marissa 3181@http://sk6ersfans.com/ <p>Relative to Amy's perspective in the song...Keep in mind, this is an interpretation, and I could be way off...but here goes... </p> <p>Amy was the one who was caught in a teenage love affair, since her mother became pregnant young. The line "the daughter let her hair down, just like her momma did, the couple didn't stand a chance" refers to Amy's grandmother, and her mother and father. </p> <p>The lines "so the parents split up like the whole grand canyon and the story unfolds some more you can’t please you mother and your father wasn’t there for you and now the brother you adore is singing 'Amy you used to carry me underneath your arms'" is about Amy's parents divorcing and Stephen (the little brother).</p> <p>Then, the part about "She always was a fighter with an agony inside her You can hear it when her daughter says, 'Mommy, why are you so angry?'" is about Amy and her daughter. </p> <p>Marissa's generation tally: 4 (Amy's grandmother, mother, Amy, and daughter are all mentioned) </p> <div class="signature"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/marissaskaggs" rel="nofollow">http://www.facebook.com/marissaskaggs</a></div> http://sk6ersfans.com/topic/amy-lyrics#post-3180 Sat, 03 May 2008 02:14:10 +0000 sarah 3180@http://sk6ersfans.com/ <p>i really really love amy. like a whole lot. </p> <div class="signature">something dies when you grow older, but you do the best you can</div> http://sk6ersfans.com/topic/amy-lyrics#post-3179 Sat, 03 May 2008 01:34:13 +0000 Melissa 3179@http://sk6ersfans.com/ <p>Is bees on an album?

I could type them up if they don't exist in written form.</p> <p>Also, re: Amy -- it is a beautiful song but there are too many pronouns and not enough antecedents. It was really helpful to see it written down. Lots of generations to sort out. </p> http://sk6ersfans.com/topic/amy-lyrics#post-3175 Fri, 02 May 2008 19:29:57 +0000 godsaverellogg 3175@http://sk6ersfans.com/ <p>What a beautiful song!</p> <p>I should probably start a new thread for this, but I'm scared.
