This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
I close my eyes and I keep seeing things
Rainbow waterfalls
sunny liquid dream
Confusion creeps inside me raining doubt
Gotta get to you
But I don't know how
Call me, Call me
Let me know it's alright
Call me, call me
Don't you think it's 'bout time
Please won't you call and
Ease my mind
Reasons for me to find you
Peace of mind
What can I do
to get me to you
I had your number quite some time ago
Back when we were one
But I had to grow
Ten thousand years I've searched it seems and now
Gotta get to you
Won't you tell me how
Call me, Call me
Let me know you are there
Call me, call me
I wanna know you still care
Come on now won't you
Ease my mind
Ease my mind
Reasons for me to find you
Peace of mind
Reasons for living my life
Ease my mind
Reasons for me to know you
Peace of mind
what can I do
to get me to you
Rainbow waterfalls
sunny liquid dream
Confusion creeps inside me raining doubt
Gotta get to you
But I don't know how
Call me, Call me
Let me know it's alright
Call me, call me
Don't you think it's 'bout time
Please won't you call and
Ease my mind
Reasons for me to find you
Peace of mind
What can I do
to get me to you
I had your number quite some time ago
Back when we were one
But I had to grow
Ten thousand years I've searched it seems and now
Gotta get to you
Won't you tell me how
Call me, Call me
Let me know you are there
Call me, call me
I wanna know you still care
Come on now won't you
Ease my mind
Ease my mind
Reasons for me to find you
Peace of mind
Reasons for living my life
Ease my mind
Reasons for me to know you
Peace of mind
what can I do
to get me to you

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
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,
No Surprises
Radiohead
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
Midnight
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Midnight” is a song about finding a love that is so true that it provides a calming feeling through every storm. Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms.
“Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.
I think it's basically about Spike and his search for Julia when she just dissapeared for 3 years.
Also, Yoko Kanno arranged and composed the song, but Steve Conte sang it. (I just wanna set the record straight and give correct credit)
Its the ending-theme from CowboyBebop, the series, which I very enjoyed. Many Animes have nice melodic music, but too often its electricaly "destroyed" with high tones(I call it Nintendo-Techno), not so here, not only the music is cool, the whole series is. And it all fites in the concept, the blues-jazz influenced music and the dark future-atmosphere. First time I saw it, I thaught "Yeah, this is why we got hands to paint and eyes to look" and I still think of it as the very best anime-series ever made - so long.
This song rips Bittersweet Symphony by the Verve off. :p
It's not just about Spike and Julia, it's about the whole crew looking for the meaning in their pasts and a place they can belong. For Jet, it's about Alisa. For Faye, it's about her friends at school. For Ed, it's about her father. And Ein's just a dog.
Personally, I think this is one of the two best songs ever written. The other one is Blue.
This song always makes me think of loves, losses, and moving forward while never forgetting. something i'm still learning to do.
and yeah, Steve sang it. He also sang Diggin', No Reply, Stray, one version of Rain, Words That We Couldn't Say, Could You Bite The Hand? and Nowhere and Everywhere, which is one of my favorite songs. he's awesome.
This song makes me think of a man searching for God and asking God to reveal himself to the man.
to me this song is about a guy searching for the girl he loves, (or vice versa) but he/she cant find him/her, so he pretty much gives up but still just wants to hear from her one more time. I'm in this situation right now. certainly relates to Spike.
StarmanDX, are you fucking retarded? One, this anime was made LONG before that song came out. And 2, Bittersweet Symphony actually ripped off an old Rolling Stones instrumental album, Rolling Stones sued, and got all the royalties for that album.
i just wanna say that its fairly pointless saying that the series has a blues influence...because bebop is a "not excactly well-known" genre of music which is a variation of jazz and blues
you guys are right when you say it speaks for the crew members but dont forget, when we hear it in the series, its during the time that faye has run off and left the bebop and the others are all sulking in her absence, albeit perhaps unadmittedly so although yeah its versatile and it can easily refer to the relationships you mentioned, i believe it more specifically references the deep, unspoken feelings the bebop have for faye at the time of course theyd never tell her so the series uses this song to let us know how they feel
