- Not Emily Dickinson. Her poems are full of weird, sharp, crazy images. They are bursting at the seams with emotion, all about death, madness, passion, and the weird things that go on in our minds. They are smart and often funny in a dark, slightly twisted way. Take I Heard A Fly Buzz When I Died, for example. A lot of writers in Dickinson’s time had a very sentimental take on death and dying. Everything had to be sweet and calm and sappy.

When I wrote it, I had no idea that it would become so unversally popular.

- It is as though the ghost of his friend is speaking, and at the same time a bit self-pitying and urg … ing comrades to continue the fight. It is considered to be one of the most moving war poems ever written. In sum, the mood is sad, but not without a twist of confidence and encouragement squeezed in. McCrae, in the medical service of Great Britain during World War I, wrote the poem shortly after officiating at the funeral of his friend, Lieut. Alexis Helmer, in the absence of the chaplain at his station. Helmer was killed by a shell burst, and in this poem, it is as though Major McCrae was trying to divine the parting words of his friend.

- In many ways, I Heard A Fly Buzz is a reaction to the kinds of sentimental literature that was popular in the mid-19th century. Even in a short poem like this, it's apparent that Dickinson was more than capable of digesting, responding to, and maybe even making fun of other works of literature.

- This song is a tribute to Marilyn Monroe, a famous actress and sex symbol who died of a drug overdose in 1962. The candle in the wind represents her short, but eventful life. The song makes various references to the press coverage of Monroe. The famous opening line, Goodbye Norma Jean, refers to her birth name: Norma Jean Mortenson, and how she gave up both her name and her privacy for the sake of celebrity. The lyrics were written by Elton's writing partner, Bernie Taupin, who got the idea for the title from a quote he read about Janis Joplin. According to Taupin, the song is more of a take on fame and celebrity than an ode to Marilyn Monroe.

Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here (with lyrics) THE LYRICS ARE HERE, PEOPLE, SO PLEASE DON'T ASK! Guys, I know this isn't the original album cover, but I think it's an amazing picture, and I believe it represents Pink Floyd's legacy and success throughout these years. This song was posted as a tribute to Syd Barrett. So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell, Blue skys from pain. Can you tell a green field From a cold steel rail? A smile from a veil? Do you think you can tell? And did they get you to trade Your heros for ghosts? Hot ashes for trees? Hot air for a cool breeze? Cold comfort for change? And did you exchange A walk on part in the war For a lead role in a cage? How I wish, how I wish you were here. We're just two lost souls Swimming in a fish bowl, Year after year, Running over the same old ground. What have we found? The same old fears. Wish you were here. _____ I do not own anything.
