Searching for Meaning

Songmeanings.net is a place for people to gather and discuss lyrical significance. The only problem is they're not very good at it. To illustrate this point, check out these thoughts regarding The Kelis' hit "Milkshake":

It has no comments because it has no meaning. this song blows, haha.

in my opinion she is talking about sex or her boobs

If youve seen the Video clip she makes it pretty obvious its her boobs lol..

Not the most inspiring song, but its got a semi cool beat...

I saw an interview with her about the meaning of this song and she stated that its about confidence. She's got attitude that is appealing and the boys like it and the girls who don't have it want it. Milkshake is another word for sex appeal.

its about giving head ((blowjobs)).... if u didnt kno that, i hate to tell u but.... you are stupid and obviously dont get out much!

my friends and i always laughed that it was prostituting prostitution.

Bubbly69 is closer. I heard the interview too. On the online urban dictionary, it's about tittyfuckin, to be blunt and honest. Of course reading that definition and watching the video, make ya wonder...

i think its either about gettin eaten out or givin head, something bout what u do wuth your mouth n the southern region of the body on someone.

haha. this is the most annoying song EVER in my opinion

by Lici on 10-13-2004 @ 04:00:58 AM
It's obviously very sexual in some way. I'm not sure exactly what Kelis is trying to say, but no doubt it's all about sex and how she's superior and wonderful and sexy compared to everyone else...that's her usual style right? I am not a Kelis fan but i must say, it's catchy to an extent. It's also very annoying. 'My milkshake brings all the boys to the yard...' etc. is said in the most irritating voice! Yeah, i'm not really a fan of this.

by clairebaby on 10-15-2004 @ 03:04:23 AM
this song was her one and only comeback. good while it lasted ...not.

by Perfect Wh()re on 11-20-2004 @ 08:03:29 PM
Lighten up kids fantastic song. Makes me wanna dance its truly sad Kelis got bottled of at V festival. Milkshake and trick me are both wicked tunes.

by sfgirl82 on 11-23-2004 @ 04:18:46 PM
I don't know if this is true but my friend told me she has a dirty version which substitutes "milkshake" with "deep throat." What a crass thing to sing about.

This is so random, but i googled my one and only username (msanabear) and this entry happened to come up. Two points of explanation:

1) I was being facetious about the lyrics having to be newly added for it to have no comments. Really.

2) I don't normally google my name (or username), but it's been pointed out to me before that it's fairly easy to find me on the internet because I don't change usernames. And my friends are right. I really should take the time to come up with a new name.

Also, I don't know how good Blogger is at specifying which entry the comment is for in the notification email, so, to specify, this comment is regarding your two year old entry about Songmeanings.net. Sorry this comment is so late.
