To remember or to forget it
Could you ever
Laugh out loud while you cry
It will own you, you can't let it
While it holds you you can't even try

You're so unsatisfied
You're so damn petrified
You ain't got nothin' no
You ain't got nothin' to prove

Just a little heartache
Just a little hole
Just an itchy finger
And nobody knows

Just a little heartache
Somethin' for the soul
Fingers on the trigger
And nobody knows, what she knows

I got a secret and how you dread it
I should have known by
The lonely look in your eye
You made a promise never kept it
You didn't even tell me good-bye

You're so unsatisfied
There's no more tears to cry
You ain't got nothin' no
You ain't got nothin' to prove

Just a little heartache
Just a little hole
Just an itchy finger
Nobody knows

Just a little heartache
Somethin' for the soul
Fingers on the trigger
And nobody knows, what she knows
Nobody knows, what she knows

In December, I got your letter
And by the springtime
They let me know you were gone
And if I only loved you better
I'd see you smile again
But what's done is done

Just a little heartache
Just a little hole
Just an itchy finger
And nobody knows

Just a little heartache
Somethin' for the soul
Fingers on the trigger
And nobody knows

Just a little heartache
Just an itchy finger
And nobody knows

Just a little heartache
Just a little hole
Just a little hole
Just a little hole

Just a little heartache
Just a little hole
Fingers on the trigger
Just a little hole

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Head > Heels

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
