Voltaire Lyrics


Voltaire was born in Havana, Cuba in 1967. He emigrated
with his family to the U.S. as a child and settled in New
Jersey (a fact he never stops complaining about!)

"Voltaire is a singer/songwriter whose music has its roots
deeply imbedded in European folk music. His songs speak of
love and, most often, the loss thereof with the added twist
of how best to seek revenge on the ones who have hurt you.
Lyrically, he explores and reveals those moments of
vulnerability most would rather not discuss and exploits
with childish abandon those More...

Review about Voltaire songs
Amazing. | Reviewer: Anonymous
    ------ About the song Lovesong performed by Voltaire

Simply amazing. Absolutely just perfect song, when you read the lyrics (or memorize them, as I have :) ) it's so happy and loving and emotional, but when you listen to the song, that violin in the back forces you to feel a little bit sad.

Sweet and Sad | Reviewer: Rachel C.
    ------ About the song Born Bad performed by Voltaire

To me, this song captures a truely human moment that everyone will experience at least once in their lifetime. Although sung by a male, it is repairable to both genders for everyone experiences a somepoint a time where they have messed up so badly that they have lost everything. It is at those moments that the importance of family are stressed. The last few lines of "I don't wanna go...I'm not ready yet" clearly indicte a premature death, bit we can only assume that, in context with the song, his mother is dead and that would be the only way for the narrator to be held.
Overall, bravo Voltaire for writing a song so humanly significant.

    ------ About the song When You're Evil performed by Voltaire

This is a great song, it's funny and also a complete and utter LIE to all you people who think that these lyrics are true don't be so stupid-I mean taking sweets from children might be done but tripping old people down the stairs would be classed as ASSAULT which is illegal-he based the song on cliches and normal villain behaviour in FICTION. That out of the way the song is brilliant and funny as well as being catchy. So is it relevant? you do not have to be deranged to understand this song, you have to not be deranged because if a deranged person listened to this they would probably start doing all those things-if you just put that comment to pretend to be cool (which you probably did)it didn't work.

    ------ About the song God Thinks performed by Voltaire

Love how it sounds. By the second time I heard this song I figured out exactly what he was saying. People are responsible for their actions, and no matter if you say it's because God told you to do it, it's still wrong and you'r probably just listening to your own twisted conscience.

I wish more people toon this song to heart, but that's just how the world is.

    ------ About the song Feathery Wings performed by Voltaire

It can most positively NOT be about charcoal feather corporation. The album this song debuted on was released in 2000. The anime in question originally aired in Japan in late 2002. Two years too late. I'll give you a decent break since there is a very good fan made video using the series. The only fact I can verify is that the song is indeed very beautiful and that Voltaire has stated it is about the angel of death. However this confusion is no where near as troubling as the people who hate the band Queen because they copied Justin Bieber. I don't know how this would even be possible?

    ------ About the song When You're Evil performed by Voltaire

Love the song so much. It's dark, catchy, and intelligent. While it seems to be encouraging evil it also depicts evil as being so petty, it can't even spare a child's candy. Not safe, mind you ("an extra turn upon the rack"), but petty.
Certain members of the mainstream clergy *cough* really enjoy the joke.
The rhythm and rhyme scheme is also impressive.

great song!!!! according to a christian | Reviewer: Anonymous
    ------ About the song God Thinks performed by Voltaire

I'm a church going God fearing christian and I love this song. I love how I can sit in a church and look around at how many jerks this song applies to. P.S. to all misinformed athiests: not all christians r closed minded morons. There are people like me who are equally tolerant of another's religion or lack thereof. Don't stereotype, or risk becoming the stone-throwers yourselves

Epic song | Reviewer: Spencer west
    ------ About the song Goodnight, Demon Slayer performed by Voltaire

I'm kickin the creature behind the door's butt right now ;D

Perfect | Reviewer: Anonymous
    ------ About the song Stuck With You performed by Voltaire

Just bought Ooky Spooky as my fifth Voltaire album, and this song was an instant favourite! The collaboration is perfect, and although comedy, it has a truer meaning... Keep it up, V!

    ------ About the song Ex Lover's Lover performed by Voltaire

This is my fourth Voltaire album and I instantly fell in love with it. The beauty of Anniversary, the simple devilishness in When Your Evil and Ex Lovers Lover, the poetry of Raven, the passion in Snakes. All these songs are amazing, but Ex Lovers Lover stands right at the top. I love all of Voltaires music but this song is fantastic and so well put togeher. A very complex melody, beautiful and evil at the same time and just fantastic. Well done, Voltaire <3
