You can read wiki pages or sit down and read a bunch of interviews, but we should have you covered if you want to know anything about your favorite songs from your childhood (or your parents' childhood). From song lyric meanings, to famous misheard song lyrics, and the words to all the most famous music from the '60s (and the "groovy era"), try and find your favorite song and read up on how it came to be.
