THE STREETS LYRICS

  Lyrics - The Streets Lyrics

 :: Biography
 :: Albums





this is what a geeza i grew up with wrote about me (raps
under the name of crispy). most of it is weighted in his
favour, i don't agree with the bit that i didn't come up
with the garage idea and i didn't realise most of what he
was thinking before he wrote.

This is a fucking essay, but all you streets fans that
wanna know more about mike are gonna love it... I'm seeing
a lot of beef on this site and a lot of people seem to be
putting their 2 cents in about mike. so since I've known
mike since I was 4, have worked with him since he started
in our great little rock band when we were 13 right up
until he got signed, I think that entitles me to comment,
so here is the real streets. firstly....mike was never a
rapper. unless you count fucking about when i made him

        ------ About the song Never Went To Church performed by The Streets

    MY DAD WANTED ME TO BE A LAWYER OR A DOCTOR | Reviewer: LEONTY SOROKA
        ------ About the song Never Went To Church performed by The Streets

    I love him very much, as much as he loves me, i'm 25 male, and divorced, have i hurt him, absoluetly, has he hurt me most defiently.

    Lung cancer changes nothing, this song definetly caught me of guard today, 40000 songs and this is what itunes decided to play tonight. I will always remember my father as a strong ukrianian immigrant, he took a family of 8 across the ocean 21 years ago, and lost family memebers, my eldest brother is serving life in a us prison. No surprise, dont bring feisty russians to the us, or else.

    Staying positive is only possible by not involving myself with family. Only grama gets to see the good i do.

        ------ About the song Dry Your Eyes performed by The Streets

    possibly 1 of the greatest songs ever written, to truly relate to so many ppl and put what some feel for a life time into a song that lasts 4 1/2 minutes is genius, for every1 who's been there or might even get there this song is like the bible to the religous. never has a song explained such emotion.

        ------ About the song Never Went To Church performed by The Streets

    i lost my father, a few months ago and organised the funeral, i felt fine through it all. As we didnt have a close relationship, cos he pushed me away which i believe was cos i could never take the place of a brother i had before i existed and just wasnt a suitable replacement no matter what i did for him to be proud of.
    He was an alcoholic in the end and was hurting the people around him and went into a coma more than once forcing myself and my sister to make the choice of turning off the life support machine once which i agreed to as my sister wasnt capable. with 6 hours left to go before they did it he made a recovery. i never forgave him for the way he put us through that and still havent really although i have accepted it.
    He went back on the drink after coming out of hospital, the words of this song meant a lot to me before he died giving me an insight into how i would probably feel after he died and it was right, I just hope that the funeral and send off i gave him, is enough to have made him proud of me if there is a place after death, not religious people but only he knows now. Its all i ever wanted from him and about the only thing i never had him say.


    They overtook my inspiration... | Reviewer: tGilvonas
        ------ About the song It's Too Late performed by The Streets

    Sometimes I write rap rhymes, and this... perfect, but untraditional hip-hop or trip-hop rhymes overtook my slow inspiration... the dynamics of metropolitan's airport, the windy dull sky is expressed perfectly


    Streets | Reviewer: Kalex
        ------ About the song Blinded by the Lights performed by The Streets

    Although it lacks the normal requirements for a good british rap song, like, an actual melody.. its a very impressive song, and he really makes you feel a part of his movement. yes, he talks about taking drugs, but most artists do at some point :L but anyone with half a wit would realise he's talking about love. but songs are free to be depicted by anyone, so take what you want from it.

        ------ About the song Never Went To Church performed by The Streets

    i havent seen my dad in 8 years and he is now out of my life the funny thing is i wasnt upset at the time and even now i am not however i listen to this song and it makes me feel bad that i dont care but then i think there must be a reason y i feel like this mike skinner is not the sort of guy u wud think cud write this stuff but he is amazing


    brilliant | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Blinded by the Lights performed by The Streets

    this track is not about drugs, the drugs are just a part of the song and it describes the reality very good, but what this song is really about is the girl he's waiting and at the end he sees her kissing his mate... so this is a love ballad of the new age...


    The Streets Lyrics- understand them first if you wanna hate on them | Reviewer: Lu
        ------ About the song Blinded by the Lights performed by The Streets

    This song is truely amazing! you can actually imagine being the guy! love everything about it. If you actually listen to the lyrics hes NOT saying its a good thing to take pills, hes tripping out paranoid and it doesnt seem hes actually having a good time! listen to the lyrics and then maybe u'll understand the streets before u critisize them! peace out! x


    amazing lyrics | Reviewer: dave
        ------ About the song Could Well Be In performed by The Streets

    i love the streets i know there not everybodys cup of tea but these lyrics are great , i know where he's coming from when you can just sit and chat about everything on your mind and get lost in the moment , theres that someone we all feel close to and this song sums it up great .

    it's not just about the physical side of things , he wanders if she's for keeps someone to share the special times with amazing song in my opinion

    keep writing amazing songs streets


    beyond fantastic | Reviewer: cBeyond
        ------ About the song Never Went To Church performed by The Streets

    I lost my Mom when I was 9. This song hits home. You do forget how their face looks and the sound of their voice and you feel so bad because you're forgetting them. This song makes me cry but in a good way. I too forgot she left me to remind me of her. It's just something you never get over the saying time heals all wounds is not true. I still cry and miss her I am instantaneously warped back in to that 9 year old little girl who knows she is gone forever.


    Strange | Reviewer: Sharpy
        ------ About the song Blinded by the Lights performed by The Streets

    well most people would say this song is either one thing or the other.. but insetad of reading what other people have said and reacted on it then make it what you want it to be it could either be about drugs beats or the opposite sex? my opinion to this would make this song legendary in its own style


    OMG | Reviewer: Jaidan
        ------ About the song Dry Your Eyes performed by The Streets

    Since Thursday night i havent stop listening to this it is a great sad song and nothing i would never never forget it i can tell u that !!! "Dry your eyes mate
    I know it's hard to take but her mind has been made up
    There's plenty more fish in the sea
    Dry your eyes mate
    I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
    But you've got to walk away now
    It's over" love this song forever .........x

        ------ About the song London Underground performed by The Streets

    This song is by Amateur Transplants, not The Streets. And the version you most obviously has is the Amateur Transplants version, because none other such cover or version exist. It is still a kick ass song, I just don't understand how people came to think it's by The Streets when he doesn't even sound like it. If you don't believe me, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Underground_(song)#London_Underground

        ------ About artist/band The Streets

    If this guy grew up with Mike, then he'd call his mother mum, not mom and they wouldn't have gone to junior high... they're americanisms, and I'm pretty sure Birmingham is in England... and generally ass is the americanism of the british arse.
    The Streets are wicked cool.. v.v blunt but awesome!



    fuckin hell | Reviewer: Ian Jade
        ------ About the song Fit But You Know It performed by The Streets

    This is one the more genially written songs by the Streets.

    @angryman: It's fairly simple to understand. All The Streets songs are easy to understand, unless one is just as fucking retarded as yourself.
    In case you missed the point, it's about a bloke standing in a fucking restaurant checking out a bird.

    take it easy people and enjoy good music :)

    incredible | Reviewer: graydoh
        ------ About the song Never Went To Church performed by The Streets

    I haven't had the unfortunate experience of losing my father, but this song still makes me shiver. Mike Skinner, despite being not the sort of guy I would expect to write music like this, has done an amazing job on this song. The line "Cause I forgot you left me behind to remind me of you." gives me shivers every time i hear it, and its by far my favorite 'streets' line of all time. What a song.

        ------ About the song Never Went To Church performed by The Streets

    I first heard this song a long time after my dad died when I hadn't thought about it for a long time. But the "left me behind to remind me of you" line gets me every time I hear it. For someone who has gone through this is best song ever!
