Meaning of All Songs - Page 2

I thought I heard that Beautiful was about an ex-girlfriend, who dumped Stapp but wanted to get back together with him after MOP became the hit album that it was. I cannot recall what interview I read that in, though, but I am positive that Stapp said that.

I gotta say, I don't agree with that guy much... Although he had some real good points.

I don't completely agree with him either, but I agree with the vast majority of it.

Yeah, maybe. But I remember hearing Stapp saying that Stand Here With Me is written for the fans and for the energy they all share, the band and the fans, on a live show. (He said that on a bootleg I heard)

Hmm, I didn't know that. I've always thought of it as being about someone, perhaps a mother or father figure, that inspires you to dream big and to pursue your interests. You know, a positive influence.

That's the explanation for Beautiful I've heard. Can't remember where I heard it, but it was a spoken interview..I heard the sound clip of it somewhere.

ah...another one i remember now

wash away those years is about one of his friends who was raped and she told him about it a few years after it happened...i remember that one from a concert i saw in 99..stapp told us that before they played it.

i heard the same thing about SHWM, it was about the fans.

This is the first time I get this "prooved", but I've always thought it was about it. I remember Stapp saying this on a bootleg: "I think there millions of women out there who are affected by this"... That was a good clue, I guess...

it suuuuuure was!
i knew that and iv never even been to a concert!
DAMN NEW ZEALAND!
lolz
and i thought that beautiful was not only about stapp but tremo, phillips and marshall as well....
with all their hardships with women, so to speak

adparaiki · 11-18-2005, 09:12 AM

i always thought stand here with me was a song to tremonti and the fans.

StappsSaviour · 12-20-2005, 08:03 PM
