Hollywise - Blacktop Manhattan (lyrics)

[RossSketch]

not even close on the lyrics...the main thing is that in the chorus he says "im selling my soul to be in the spotlight" why would he say something about his son if hes like 20 here?

[TheKossuke]

[lchemplayil]

@UFO343 Superman tries to save lives. Apparently everyone is killing themselves so his work ethic is ruined and he kills himself.

[DutchFingerBoarding]

1 person killed him or herself tonight.

[THEGUIDOS123]

Wow his mom would care if Superman died.....whore...

[lmister1]

@UFO343 its saying, that good people turn bad, about drugs and stuff

[Brockerboy934]

The point is bout drugs

[SOAdipper]

im sorta reminded of 8675309 jenny by tommy tutone with this song

[Rex3534]

@darkdialga777 NO THERES 1337 PEOPLE ON THE ROOF!

[Rex3534]

@darkdialga NO THERES 1337 PEOPLE ON THE ROOF!

[Metallicats96]

[wabdewabdewabde]

One theme is the attempt to fulfill the desire to be noticed and special often damaged by life experience, with actions that rekindle their powerful unity. The cost is that the return to the desired feeling state is brief, while the drain of life energy is sometime permanent. All this in the service of avoiding the abhorrence of feeling ordinary. Intravenous drug use can be a substitute for being in the spotlight and suicide a last attempt at being noticed, after falling from grace.

[ZzmusicZloverzZ]

it's "i'm sellin' my soul to be in the spot light" not "im tellin' my son to be in the spotlight" other than that, great song hellz yea, im a 12 y/o girl and i <3 this band and especially this song

[theshawnkelly]

The lyrics are quite wrong.

[gga789]

1 guy is superman.

[rockstr1]

George Reeves -superman in the 50's- George Reeves died of a gunshot wound to his head, The official finding was suicide which i think is the superman reference

[THEGUIDOS123]

Like if you thought it said "Im telling mom itll a big surprise"

[grolhaz]

It's "I'm selling my soul to be in the spotlight" ang not "I'm telling my son to be in the spotlight". ;)

[DanceGenerationCDN]

@grolhaz lol i was just about to say that

[eldorond]

@grolhaz LOL

[MyMoviemaker12]

haha its fuk song



[MsFemzz]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAhhh I used to get gld medalswith this song at super crazy guitar maniac 2! <'3

[SunShineLeadsToRain]

caramip, you need not say more.

[RoofyLynn]

It's about how drugs destroy people's lives. Nothing else.

[XXXCOLOURMYDREAMSXXX]

ich bin durch das speil aufmerksam gewordwen

[HawSlipDisAvenged]

i like the song and nice video btw. 

[almightygames]

i think this song is about how people run to hollywood to live out the dream of being in the film industry! however because this is such a hard business to get in, they have either turned to drugs or suicide to stop the pain they go through

[crustykarma]

both people in the song dont have anything in common i think its just about two people that have given up and turned to heroin

[Sarahish101]

She lies in bed and remembers when the moon it looked so high **

With a spoon and a needle, she never has to leave the sky **

[mangluluse]

[alanasapphire]

[matterenown]

[109apples]

is this like thier only song?

[Gundosao]

Very good job man!

[sbeasley001]

its selling my soul to the spotlight not telling my son to be in the spotlight

[vrk7878]

this is a sad song but its preety rocking my enterpretaion is the girl get high day and night and with the guy i think he gott drunk after his wife left and over dosed on the drinking so he put the gun to his head and in two shots it was all over

[daress1233]

if you know the music video of hollywise please tell me

[franza94]

i think its about a couple. the girl is a drug addict and the guy pays for the drugs. when she leaves when he runs out of money he kills himself when hes drunk.

[caramip]

@franza94 I like your interpretation, although it could just as easily represent multiple, unconnected, people. Perhaps symbolizing just how fucked up the world in general is.

[TheKaka1423]

@caramip Every Rock song says that the World is fucked up.

[Infritblade123]

@caramip The song is about how fame and fortune end up screwing people up. Those people we look up to most end up screwing up their lives because of the attention, and we live by their standards. But the best generalization you've already made, it's about how fucked up the world really is.

[pglAymer]

@caramip thats deep bro

[samaraix]

@caramip that's how I always took it. it's different stories all connected through tragedy and the overall cruel world we live in. it's a good song anyways.

[moscraciunmafraiere]

@caramip

I think your interpretation is better, since there is nothing in the lyrics that suggests that the two are a couple

[XxNGameCubexX]

@moscraciunmafraiere Well.. "his wife ran out with the doctor"

What about that?

[moscraciunmafraiere]

@XxNGameCubexX

I think franza is talking about the guy in the secod verse and the girl in the first one

[rgt4all]

@caramip but the spoon and the needle are signs that she's addicted to drugs

[krazyawesomee]

@caramip i like the way you think

[TheKaka1423]

@franza94 I don't think so.I think that are two different Storys.

[Patrioticman]

@franza94 I would like to agree with your interpretation. it seems spot on from what I thinking

[pglAymer]

@franza94 thats deep bro

[S4LV4T1ON]

Corrections:

She lies in bed and remembers when the moon, it looked so high*

She never has to leave the sky*

I'm sellin' my soul to be in the spot light*

[Zmoshify]

lyric mistakes: mistakes in caps

superman is killin' 'EM DOWN tonite

im telling my SOUL to be in the spotlight

i think gr8 song

[Slagathor221]

@Zmoshify

I dont think it should be "killin'em down"

They're singing about 44, wich is a gun, and two shots. and a needle and a spoon wich refers to commit suicide with drugs.

[hannaaatje]

great song!!!!!

[kissamoon8296]

love this song

[proudnoob100]

ROCKIN!I found it on super crazy guitar maniac deluxe 2

[XXgerardXluverXX]

[shadyrecords104]

i get the drug refrences n financial problems etc but what's with "Superman is killing himself tonight, Hollywse, hollywise." ???? plz help :)

[franza94]

@shadyrecords104 superman could refer to the drug addict. "with a spoon and a needle she never has to leave the sky" like superman flying and shes killing herself with the drugs. idk about the hollywise

[shadyrecords104]

@franza94 thanks :) i'll google it!!!! xD

[MultiDragon55]

i think the 1st part is about drugs and the second one bout financial problems

[MultiDragon55]

cab someone pls tell me what the song is about

[DarkSoraMan]

I had a feeling it was a drug referance....

[DarkSoraMan]

With a spoon and a needle she never leave the sky.... help me out with that lyric.

[Grungejunkie1180]

@DarkSoraMan It's a drug refrence.

[hateyouass]

coool

[allabridgedfan12]

ive played the game so much i can see the notes and play it perfectly air guitar. sad i know.

[SigmusLink]

Hollywise!

Holywise!

[caramip]

Official lyrics have never been released so it's up to speculation, but, I slowed the song down to 25% speed on WMP and I'm pretty damn sure these are the right lyrics.

[samaraix]

@caramip There is only one line that I believe to be incorrect in this lyrics vid, I'm pretty sure it's "I'm selling my soul to be in the spotlight" instead of "I'm tellin my son to be in the spotlight." other than that it's dead on.

[64manxman]

@samaraix yea i agree

[ashopolis12]

@caramip Dude, where you say, im telling my son to be in the spot light, i Really really think its: Im selling my soul to be in the spot light.

[mrlinker99]

@ashopolis12 same here

[johnthegrungekid2]

Did you mean to mess up the lyrics..?

It's supposed to be "She lies in bed" not "She lost a bet"

And "I'm sellin' my soul to be in the spotlight" I think.

[young1a]

yea hes the onlyone that right all of ya r asshole

[young1a]

yea ur right

[rusty7070]

me @/\/!) my band will be civering this song @ our first concert
