Analyze some songs.

[mattinbeloit]

I found out that I am going to have to write a big paperfor college about analyzing the works of a famous writer or poet. I asked if I could do Dave Matthews and the prof. agreed. The paper is still a ways down the line in terms of time but i want to get started. I would love it if we could try to get every song of Dave's analyzed and maybe make this a sticky or something. Thanks for the help.

FYI, There are some sites out there that do this already. Not sure of the names though.

but they are wrong on a ton of the song meanings, you have to search through the posts well to find the right ones.

does anyone know that site that has "Wasting Time" at the top and is a list of all the dave songs and when you click on it it gives a brief history and meaning thingy?

Does anyone know the meaning behind the song Halloween? It is one of my favorties and I have been looking, but don't trust what I read on some non dmb sites.

i'm not sure, but....

dave's old girlfriend (Julia?) denied him i believe 3 times when he proposed to her, so i guess they broke up and dave wrote a song about his feelings for her. its called halloween because that was the day that either they meet, or the day that they broke up.

someone please correct me

Julia Grey was her name. yeah he proposed a bunch of times and was turned down every time. its said to be #2 in the series of ill back you up, halloween, grey street. all dealing with julia. halloween is just all of the frustration, sadness and anger dave had.

just to add a little smedley
