Higher by Creed
Creed had a hugely popular hit in 1999 called Higher. It became the signature song of the band and focused on the post-grunge scene. Though it seems to be about a drug-induced high or Creed publicizing Christianity, it’s not. In fact, it’s about lucid dreaming!
Buddy Holly by Weezer
This song by Weezer isn’t actually about Buddy Holly, but you probably know that if you listened to it. However, it’s easy to hear the lyrics and think it’s about romance. Still, when you’re careful, you can figure out that it’s not about love at all!
