Does such a thing exist? - where fans can submit their interpretations of lyrix

I know there's http://www.compsoc.man.ac.uk/~moz which gives a slim but interesting background to each song and http://www.headstaggers.com/smiths/ - a nice one - Smiths songs interpreted through pictures ( not all, but mostly drawn by 6 year olds with ADD, by the looks of it)

I'm looking for one where people can read other's written interpretations?
Do I have to start it myself?.
I bet I do.
 
I launched one myself a couple of years ago and had only two submissions to it in about a year. I put my interpretation on several songs but binned it due to lack of contributions. I think that it is a really interesting subject but it seems that few others agree. Good luck if you do start it though and i will surely send a few of my thoughts.
Cheers

Yes it is bizarre - people profess to be Moz fans and yet they don't give a shit about anyone else's interpretations of his lyrics. Everyone obviosuly thinks they alone are the bee's knees and nobody else is.
To be honest - I'm not that surprised.

I think it's sad too.

Nearly every other band of note seems to have sites with intelligent people discussing the work. Yet this site for the most part seems to be dominated by a coterie of thick idiots thinking up juvenile insults to fling at each other.
