Two excellent examples of metaphor. Trees by Rush, and I Am A Rock, Simon and Garfunkel. Tull, Skating Away. Skating away hey, skating a way-e ay ay Skating away, on the thin ice of a new day e ay e ay.

I think she only said that to give you an idea how much she loves Axl Rose. Just a hunch.
WTF Pentacle Queen! Don't tell me he's your husband if he's not! I can't tell if you're kidding!!!
Now I feel

I'm so confused right now...
BTW I'd like to apologize for interrupting this topic. Sorry.
I am sorry that you have been taken in by the lovely Pentacle Queen's lie. In her defense, she only did it to protect my identity. But since I feel bad about the situation, I'll let you in on the secret. She is actually married to me, David Lee Roth.
(Also, she's quite a tiger in the bedroom, but don't tell her I told you that. She's shy about that stuff.)
![Shocked](https://cdn2.able2know.org/images/v5/emoticons/icon_eek.gif)
OMG! Will it never end?!?
(a tiger in the bedroom eh? hehe..)
Ehem...I mean...uh....Quit changing your story! Is this finally the truth?
stairway to heaven............... metaphor song???
Ok then:
I was marrined to axl rose. and i still see him.
But i am also married to david lee roth aka kinkycan- theres loads of rockstars on a2k crazy.
And what can I say? You bet im good, but not as good as kc, why, he's kinky everwhere, in the can, in the lounge, in the sack.... *Purrs*
Stairway to Heaven
what is that song about exactly?
I mean... what do the lyrics really mean?
metaphor
Pentacle Queen: I agree that metaphor can have very powerful emotional impact in songs. Metaphor is not so much about describing things accurately as using one thing to describe another, like this:
'China' - by Tori Amos. Uses China to describe emotional barriers (the Great Wall), as well as china (as in crockery), which can appear whole, yet contain many cracks, like cracks in a relationship.
'Idiot Wind' - by Bob Dylan. Puts two unrelated ideas together to describe unintelligent conversation - the 'wind' is the air expelled during speech.
'Fever' - (?) Equates physical attraction with hot flushes!
Hmm, I wasn't thinking so much about those kind of songs tbh.
I started this thread ages ago.
I think those type of songs are a bit to wordy, I like my songs to be concise.
I was talking about the words being concise and represeting what they mean well, rather than using a similie.
Don't forget the myriad of metaphors in the songs of my husband, Prince.

personal fave ..
"...i've got a lion in my pocket
and baby he's ready to roll..."
That is one sexy metaphor Dp! Love it, I didn't know you were married to prince, I used to be married to axl rose.
Yeah so I heard. Was it a very messy divorce?
x
Well yes, because he was so in love with me, he wouldn't let me go, you see.
But I had to be strong and move onwards and upwards.
I am now married to Johnny Depp.
Yeah it's so irritating when they get clingy like that
chiming in very late as usual, there must be a zillion songs that compare love or loved ones to sunshine; You are the sunshine of my life by Stevie Wonder is a fine example.
then there's the lovely Circle Game by Joni Mitchell:
And the seasons they go round and round
And the painted ponies go up and down
We're captive on the carousel of time
We can't return we can only look
Behind from where we came
And go round and round and round
In the circle game
A simplistic use of metaphor
Rolling Stones Brand New Car Lyrics
Songwriters: N/A
Send "Brand New Car" Ringtone to your Cell
I got a brand new car
And I like to drive real hard
I got a brand new car
And I'm feeling good so far
Take her on the highway for a little spin
I want to see the kind of shape she's in
And I got a brand new star
Jack her up baby, go on, open the hood
I want to check if her oil smells good
Mmmm...smells like caviar
Give her some stick
Push her too far
Right to the brink
Hear the motor running
Yeah, she's right in sink
Tell me if she's thirsty
Would she like a drink
And I'm stopping at this bar
Slinky like a panther
You can hear her purr
Touch her on the seat
Go on, feel the fur
And I got a brand new star
Feel the juice
Foot to the floor
Take some abuse
I got a brand new car
And I drive her in the dark
And I got a brand new car
I think I'll stop and park
Yankee Doodle is a metaphor for something: I think macaroni is a red herring.
i know the pentacle queen and axl is her husband idiots...........why would you lie
