i wasn't looking for a jesus man
i wasn't looking for buddha
i wasn't looking for a common man
and i wasn't looking for you,
and that's for sure

could you be the one?
could you be anyone?
could you be 1 2 3 4 fuckin' 5 for sure?

the last time i saw you was the first time
was the first time i saw god
the last time i saw you was the first time
was the first time i saw god

i wasn't looking to be crucified
for something i had done just once
but now i've got the taste in my mouth
you know i'm not looking to give you back to her

could i be the one?
are you my only one?
are you my 1 2 3 4 fuckin' 5 for sure?

the last time i saw you was the first time
was the first time i saw god
the last time i saw you was the first time
was the first time i saw god

the last time i saw you was the first time
was the first time i saw god
the last time i saw you was the first time
was the first time i saw god

are you the one?
could you be anyone?

the last time i saw you was the first time
was the first time i saw god
the last time i saw you was the first time
was the first time i saw god

the last time i saw you was the first time
was the first time i saw god
the last time i saw you was the first time
was the first time i saw god

the last time i saw you was the first time
was the first time i saw god
the last time i saw you was the first time
was the first time i saw god

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

Led Zeppelin
This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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,

Midnight
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.
