Bruce Springsteen fires up for the Super Bowl
Jan 30th
It’s that time of year again, time for nostalgia at halftime. Every year lately since the Janet Jackson boob-show we get to see historic musicians. I know that it’s for the family but can’t we get a good rock band up there like Linkin Park or Metallica. Lately it’s been Paul McCartney, The Rolling Stones, Prince, and most recently Tom Petty and the Heart Breakers. They are all great musicians but come on! Get me some rock in this stadium! Opinions?
Meaning of the song “Let It Rock” by Kevin Rudolf, Ft. Lil Wayne.
Jan 29th
In the first verse of this song Kevin Rudolf is talking about someone who is very close to him that betrayed him very deeply. They clearly “Live a lie” in his eyes and he makes it clear that he wants nothing to do with this kind of lifestyle. The chorus of this song is basically saying, it doesn’t matter, and that he(Kevin) is still the best because he is living his own life and not someone else. All signs point to the second verse is actually about Kevin in his personal life / relationship with his father and career. The second pre-chorus is about people (like the person who betrayed him in verse one) who are standing around in line and letting their life be dictated to them, instead of taking what they want. “I got mine”. Lil Waynes parts are about himself and his ability to get any girl he wants… and buy them any thing they want, nothing too new there. The last lines of this song relate directly to the person Kevin is talking about in the first verse:
“I wish I could be As cool as you
And I wish I could say
The things you do
But I can’t and I won’t live a lie
No not this time”
Stay tuned for more meaning of the song posts.
