UZI Suicide Posted May 7, 2005 Report Posted May 7, 2005 What is this song about? When hearing it I figured the singer had just dedicated a song to his sister or something, but after reading the lyrics it seems like he wants to have an incestual relationship with her. Can any fans of the band clue me in here?
Black Lushus Posted May 9, 2005 Report Posted May 9, 2005 that's is so funny, I heard this song coming in to work today and I swore there was a part where he said he wants to cum inside his little sister!
Edwin MacPhisto Posted May 9, 2005 Report Posted May 9, 2005 Hey sister why you all alone? I'm standing out your window Hey little sister, can I come inside, dear? I wanna show you all my love I wanna be the only one I know you like nobody ever, baby Little sister can't you find another way No more livin life behind a shadow You whisper secrets in my ear Slowly dancing cheek to cheek it's such a sweet thing when you open up, baby They say I'll only do you wrong we come together cause I understand Just who you really are, baby Biological sister or figurative sister, that there's a fuckin' song.
Special K Posted May 9, 2005 Report Posted May 9, 2005 Before they played the song at their concert: "This is not a song about my sister." Awesom, awesome concert BTW, and I see them again in June.
PLAGIARISM! Posted May 9, 2005 Report Posted May 9, 2005 I might get the new album actually, Don't think much to the backing of that song but the solo is good and it's short enough not to get annoying. Saw em around the time of Rated R and what I recall was good.
Garth Posted May 9, 2005 Report Posted May 9, 2005 I saw them around the time of Rated R back in 2000, they were simply fantastic then. Not so good unfortunatly 2 years later after Songs for the Deaf had been released, still good, just not as good. Seeing them again this year, it'll be interesting to see what the bands like live without Nick.
elite Posted May 9, 2005 Report Posted May 9, 2005 Ahh, now we know the real reason why Nick Oliveri left QOTSA. Josh Homme wanted to screw Oliveri's little sister. Now it all makes sense.
Edwin MacPhisto Posted May 9, 2005 Report Posted May 9, 2005 Rated R, by the way (or just R depending on who you ask), is a favorite of mine. Especially "I Think I Lost My Headache," which someday I'll use as a backing track for an orgy or a murder.
smh810 Posted May 10, 2005 Report Posted May 10, 2005 There's only one thing to say about this song... MORE COWBELL!!!!!!!!!!
Guest Quik Posted May 10, 2005 Report Posted May 10, 2005 I saw them live 2 months ago. Amazing show. The new album is fucking great, too.
mister foozel Posted May 12, 2005 Report Posted May 12, 2005 I saw them live 2 months ago. Amazing show. The new album is fucking great, too. little sister is still a good song though, whatever its about what songs do you like from the album? i just cant get into it
DARRYLXWF Posted May 12, 2005 Report Posted May 12, 2005 The standouts for me personally are 'Everybody Knows That Your Insane', 'Burn the Witch' and 'Someone's In the Wolf' (which is my fav off the album). The softer tracks, which are mostly in the last 1/3 of the album take more time to get into, but I like'em. I can't understand why some don't like Songs For the Deaf. To me it was a great album, especially the neo-title track (A song for the deaf) as well as 'a song for the dead'. Grohl's drumming was excellent I thought as well.
Red Baron Posted May 12, 2005 Report Posted May 12, 2005 My favourite QOTSA songs are The Lost Art Of Keeping A Secret and Tension Head

You should include "I Never Came" and "Long Slow Goodbye". Both are amazing... "In My Head" is really good too. They did it live on SNL tonight, sounded great. They're real tight as a band, you don't see that often anymore on television. There's a lot of groups out there that just play sloppy live, totally detracts from the music... Queens are usually pretty fucking on. "Lost Art" is probly my favorite song. SFTD was interesting. I liked it, but not as much as R, L2P, and Self-titled. I would probly rank it last as far as Queens albums go, but that doesn't mean I dislike it.

I would probly rank it last as far as Queens albums go, but that doesn't mean I dislike it. That sums up exactly how I feel on the QOTSA albums. In particular off the new album, standout tracks for me are: Burn The Witch (I find myself humming this all the time) & Everybody Knows You're Insane.
Adam Posted May 15, 2005 Report Posted May 15, 2005 I loved it, happened to buy it an hour after it came out in my local CD store. Amazing album, it was a recommended release on my radio station, which means I got to spin it all the time for two weeks. I loved Songs for the Deaf, but that's just me.
jimmy no nose Posted May 22, 2005 Report Posted May 22, 2005 Josh Homme in Metal Edge: MetalEdge: Regarding "Little Sister," what was the inspiration for that one? Are you talking to someone you know personally in that song? Josh Homme: Yeah. I used to know a girl from school who seemed to me to be the type that you'd throw a pebble at her window into at night, and climb up the old oak tree to get into her bedroom. She seemed like the ugly duckling, she was someone where you knew more than she did about her own situation, then she already had everything that she was wishing for. I love it, man, because it's kind of my "Elvis" song, ya' know? I really have no idea what that means, but the answer to your question might be in there somewhere. It doesn't seem to be about sistersex though.
Adam Posted May 23, 2005 Report Posted May 23, 2005 I'm completely lost on that, but I think he means that she was a dumb rich chick who was hotter than she seemed from what I can gather. But still, its one badass song.
Modern Man's Hustle Posted May 23, 2005 Report Posted May 23, 2005 It's a song about a girl that is difficult to get to know, but he gets to know her and achieves a big brother/little sister kind of relationship. Do you think that when Snoop Dogg calls someone "nephew" they're really his nephew?
snuffbox Posted May 24, 2005 Report Posted May 24, 2005 The song is awesome...great vocals, cowbell, and that sweet guitar part borrowed from Daft Punk
