Golden rose, the color of the dream I had
Not too long ago
A misty blue and the lilac too
A never to grow old
There you were under the tree of song
Sleeping so peacefully
In your hand a flower played
A waiting there for me
I have never
Laid eyes on you
Not like this before
This timeless day
A but you walked and ya ha
Once smiled my name
And you stole
My heart away
A stole my heart away little girl, yeah
All right
Golden rose the color of the dream I had
Not too long ago
Misty blue and lilac too
A never to grow old
Golden rose the color of the dream I had
Misty blue and lilac too
Golden rose the color of the dream I had
Misty blue and lilac too
Golden rose, gold and rose, gold and rose
It's only a dream
I'd love to tell somebody about this dream
The sky was filled with a thousand stars
While the sun kissed the mountains blue
And eleven moons played across the rainbows
Above me and you
Golden rose the color of the velvet walls surround us
Not too long ago
A misty blue and the lilac too
A never to grow old
There you were under the tree of song
Sleeping so peacefully
In your hand a flower played
A waiting there for me
I have never
Laid eyes on you
Not like this before
This timeless day
A but you walked and ya ha
Once smiled my name
And you stole
My heart away
A stole my heart away little girl, yeah
All right
Golden rose the color of the dream I had
Not too long ago
Misty blue and lilac too
A never to grow old
Golden rose the color of the dream I had
Misty blue and lilac too
Golden rose the color of the dream I had
Misty blue and lilac too
Golden rose, gold and rose, gold and rose
It's only a dream
I'd love to tell somebody about this dream
The sky was filled with a thousand stars
While the sun kissed the mountains blue
And eleven moons played across the rainbows
Above me and you
Golden rose the color of the velvet walls surround us

Holiday

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
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

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/
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
It is just gorgeous... this dude could speak volumes and the idea of an undying love, a peaceful love, yielding beauty for another to enjoy is intoxicating. And yeah, when he kicks in the "I have never..." it gives me chills. I really wish this dude wasnt dead. Nobody can touch this song or 1983... just not possible. To me. And this is a song that describes a personal love. He wishes he could tell somebody about this dream he had - and isnt that the part about love that is so amazing? The fact that you have to live it to understand it? This song comes close though. Genius.
This, along with "One Rainy Wish" and "Bold As Love" may be lyrically the best Hendrix ever wrote about love.
There is no more powerful feeling that part about 45 seconds in or so when the line "I have never laid eyes on you" kicks in. THIS IS THE ORIGINAL POWER BALLAD....20 YEARS BEFORE THEY WERE HUGE!!!
This song reminds me of a time when I actually met a beautiful girl who was sitting under a tree at a concert, and sure enough, her smile "stole my heart away." I'm still chasing after her to get it back, but when I hear this song, I'm reminded of how lucky I am to have actually experienced to some degree the beauty described by these lyrics.
the most powerful moment in this song is when jimi sings; "I have never Laid eyes on you Not before This timeless day But you woke and whoa Smiled my name And you stole My heart away A stole my heart away little girl, yeah All right !" and then the most incredible guitar
Golden rose, the color of the dream I had Not too long ago Misty blue and lillac too A never to grow old.
I love that part
I completely agree with jersey73 on the "I have never laid eyes on you" part. Its so great. This and Castles Made of Sand are my favorite Hendrix songs. Oh, and Brian May, the guitarist from Queen does a good cover of this on one of his solo albums. It's a really good cover, but of course not as good as the original.
this song is really incredible one of my favorites, when a song is that good you dont look for its meaning you just enjoy it and you let yourself go. highly recommended!!! love it..forever jimi!!! today 09/18..
I knew a girl Alischa who I spent a week with in a beach house. One of the moments that most stands out with her was on a rainy day. The only rainy day in my whole vacation.
Then there was my first date with my faveh g/f that also took place on a rainy day.
So this song is very personal for me because I never saw either one of them again.
meeting the girl of my dreams. it was the first day of school this year, and i sat down in my chemistry class, and she sat right next to me. i had only seen her once before, and i knew she already had a bf.
so as she was sitting in class, "so peacefully" she looked right at me in the eyes and stared. thats when the: I have never Laid eyes on you Not before This timeless day But you woke and whoa Smiled my name And you stole My heart away A stole my heart away little girl, yeah All right ! comes into play. from that day forward, we became best friends and i fell in love with her. but thats when she "stole my heart away" because she got mad at me, stopped talking to me, and i tried to move on and find another girl, but she had my heart.
l still love you Aleisha Ravsten!!! of op
"Misty blue and lilac too"
That line has to be one of the most beautiful lyrical rhymes of all time, or at least it is to me.
