Meanings Behind a Song

SUMMARY: Just what are the true meanings behind popular songs, if any exist at all?

Was there truly a meaning behind the Beatles' song "I am the Walrus" or was the song intentionally written to be nonsensical? Is there a specific person referenced in Pink Floyd's classic "Wish You Were Here?" Is there an event behind Jim Hendrix's "Little Wing"?

Answers to these and other music-related questions are debated on Songfacts and SongMeanings. Look up your favorite artists or songs and see if there is truly a meaning behind the music, or at least if others think the songs have a true meaning. Both websites have a top list of the most frequently-requested songs, plus there are message forums where you can have longer discussions debating the meanings behind artists' words.
