Episodes

Ex Factor by Lauryn Hill *THROWBACK THURSDAY* 21.04.2022

As beautiful as this song is, it's about toxic love and who wants that at this big age?  Let's Go Behind The Lyrics!

Everything She Wants by Wham! (George Michael) 20.04.2022

Who knew that this bop of a song, Everything She Wants by WHAM! (George Michael) was about a unhappily married man that questioned why he was with this selfish, ungrateful woman constantly. Fellas can you relate? Let's Go Behind The Lyrics!  DM me on IG ayanaellis_official if you have a song request and we can go behind the lyrics of one of your favorite songs together!  

Wait In Vain by Bob Marley 15.04.2022

I brought a friend along, Sexpert/Sex Coach, FAU Alumni, Sex Educator, and Adult Workshop Guru Mrs. KimiLeVadge (IG: kimilevadge) but unfortunately on this episode we did not talk about sex. HOWEVER we did talk about MEN, Bob Marley and men like him in particular.  Is Waiting In Vain about a love struck man really wanting this woman? Or is it it about a predator that can't believe this woman...

I can't rock with you no more by Foxy Brown 13.04.2022

Look, Inga Marchand laid down the ghetto girl gospel on this track and it stands true today, stop letting these men play games with you!!!!!!!!  Let's Go Behind The Lyrics. Talk Yo' Shi* Inga!!!!!!!!!!!!

Best Thing I Never Had by Beyonce 12.04.2022

Remember that person you thought you'd die without? Look at you all alive and shit. Let's Go Behind The Lyrics and celebrate that bullet we dodged! 

Be Optimistic by Sounds of Blackness 11.04.2022

This is my go to song when I feel like giving up.  You will feel like giving up, but DON'T! Let's Go Behind The Lyrics of one of the greatest motivational songs of all times!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Leaving You Again/Do What I Gotta Do by New Edition/Ralph Tresvant 08.04.2022

LADIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When a man tells you he ain't shi* BELIEVE HIM! This is what Ronnie Bobby Ricky AND Mike was trying to tell this girl in Leaving You Again!!  Then as a grown man in Do What I Gotta Do, Ralph tried to let her down gently. He said he didn't want to be in a relationship any more. Ladies why don't we listen when a man tells us he doesn't want us. Why do we force the is...

If I Were Your Woman by Gladys Knight 08.04.2022

None of us want to believe that our mother had her heart broken but 9 times out of ten if you heard her playing this song over and over, she was caught up in some nonsense. This is a song about a woman that likes to play it too cool when it comes to a man then loses him to a woman that's more assertive. It also speaks on a lil bit of mental abuse from a woman to a man. Let's Go Behind The Lyrics!

Happy Feelings by Frankie Beverly and Maze 04.04.2022

It's important to protect your mental health and peace at all times.  Give love to get love. Focus on Happy Feelings as much as you can! Let's Go Behind The Lyrics of this beautiful song about self love and God.

Ring The Alarm by Beyonce 17.03.2022

Ladies, this is a safe space!  Now let's admit that we have all held on to someone longer than we should have because we didn't want the next woman to benefit from all of the hard work YOU put it to make him the man that he is. Don't let no woman take credit for all of your hard work!  RING THE ALARM! Let's Go Behind The Lyrics! 

Woman to Woman by Shirley Brown 10.03.2022

Who's more foolish, Shirley or Barbara. That's it, that's the post

Why You Treat Me So Bad by Club Nouveau 02.03.2022

This song is not about a man being treated badly. It's about a fed up woman!  There is nothing worse than being with someone that is insecure. Let's Go Behind The Lyrics... Everything is not what it seems! 

As We Lay by Shirley Murdock 23.02.2022

This is the most scandalous song about committing adultery in the history of music.   I have questions, how are married folks just spending nights out all willy-nilly?  Are you okay with your spouse spending nights out if they're not on vacation or working?  Let's Go Behind The Lyrics!

Silly of Me by Denise Williams 17.02.2022

One of the most talented singers of our time had us bamboozled.  Silly was not about Love Making A Fool Of A Woman... Press Play to hear what Silly was really about in my opinion.  *Apologies in advance for the profanity* But don't lose the message! 

Love Is Stronger Than Pride by Sade 16.02.2022

Despite what we tell ourselves, what our friends think, what our family thinks...when you love someone, the opinions of others take a back seat. YOUR opinion takes a back seat.  Love outweighs EVERYTHING!  But Discernment is your guide.  Let's Go Behind The Lyrics!  Don't forget to like, share comment and if you want to go behind the lyrics with me EMAIL: Behindthelyricspodcast...

New Videos Every Wednesday at 7pm EST 14.02.2022

Behind The Lyrics is a Podcast that I created during the Pandemic as a way to cope!

Binge! Laugh! Cry! Hate! Shake Your Head! Comment! Like! Dislike! Share! It's all goo...

Dr. Feel Good by Aretha Franklin 09.02.2022

In lieu of the conversation regarding Kiera Sheard discussing that she will not allow friends to stay at her house around her and her husband and that she would put them up in a hotel, I decided to go Behind The Lyrics with the classic Dr. Feel Good by Aretha Franklin that seemingly agrees with Kiki's sentiment. Is it insecurity? Is it lack of trust? Let's Go Behind The Lyrics as I discuss the lyr...

Hrs and Hrs by Muni Long 30.01.2022

I thought this song was about sex until I listened to it fully. Tik Tok had me hating this song but now I love it once I listened to the words. There is nothing like finding your forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Let's Go Behind The Lyrics!!!!

Speak Up Or Suffer 30.01.2022

No might make them mad but it will set you free. Speak up or you will suffer inside and that ain't cool!  Let's talk about it!

Do Me Baby by BBD 29.01.2022

These lyrics are questionable as all hell. Let's Go Behind The Lyrics!!!!!!!!

Miss You by Teddy Pendergrass and The Blue Notes 29.01.2022

Shake You Down by Gregory Abbott 26.01.2022

Hey Yawl!  So listen, hear me out!!!  I think that Shake You Down by Gregory Abbot is about a Sugar Daddy that started stalking a woman after she started curving him.   Let's Go Behind The Lyrics and you tell me what you think!  IG: ayanaellis_official
