Just live and let die
Check, check, check, come on
If you could take a minute of your life
That certain minute when you feel the lightning strike
To each his own on the level of that moment
But it's your moment, and you know you'll fucking own it
Glorified and embraced by your victory
When you're done, you escape with that memory
Blindfolded through this life as we learn
And consequences when the wrong page is turned
It's an E! True Hollywood Story
Take a man down with his own glory?
Now guess who's next
At some point, we come down from the highs
And so be it, we move on with our lives
Some of us let the laughs cover cries
Do the math, you can laugh when I die
If life is just a fantasy, then could you
Live this fantasy life? If so, then would you?
Just remember that the doors are not closeable
And your motherfucking heroes are disposable
It's an E! True Hollywood Story
Take a man down with his own glory?
Now guess who's next
It's an E! True Hollywood Story
Take a man down with his own glory?
Now guess who's next
Just live and let die, just live and let, just live and let
Just live and let die
Just live and let die, just live and let, just live and let
So what about the hardcore that ain't hard anymore?
Or the shit talkers who ain't shit anymore
Or the old fighters who can't fight anymore?
Or the white kids who ain't white anymore?
Or the actors that don't act anymore?
Or the rappers that don't rap anymore?
Or the hipsters that don't hip anymore?
Or the limpsters that don't limp anymore? Come on
Just live and let die, just live and let, just live and let
Just live and let die
Just live and let die, just live and let, just live and let
Just live and let die
But no, it's impossible
Just to live your life and let us die
Oh, motherfuck that
You wanna talk about some shit? Let's talk about the
Hardcore that ain't hard anymore
Or the shit talkers who ain't shit anymore
Or the old fighters who can't fight anymore
Or the white kids who ain't white anymore
Or the actors that can't act anymore
Or the rappers that can't anymore
Or the hipsters that can't hip anymore
Or the limpsters that can't limp anymore, come on
It's an E! True Hollywood Story
Take a man down with his own glory?
Now guess who's next
It's an E! True Hollywood Story
Take a man down with his own glory?
Now guess who's next
Check, check, check, come on
If you could take a minute of your life

But it's your moment, and you know you'll fucking own it
Glorified and embraced by your victory
When you're done, you escape with that memory
Blindfolded through this life as we learn
And consequences when the wrong page is turned

And so be it, we move on with our lives

Take a man down with his own glory?
Now guess who's next

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

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,

Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
This song is about how fame can often lead to your downfall, (take a man down with his own glory) and that hollywood, fame etc. is not as great as it seems
"glorified and embraced by your victory when you're done, you escape that memory"
When you're on top, you have the highest popularity, legion of fans and you're all over tv, but that popularity decreases, the fans move on, and you never get any time because of other, bigger stars.
"blindfolded through this life as we learn and consequence when the wrong page is turned"
You are blind to the fact that fame will soon fuck up your life, as your too busy enjoying the spotlight during your 15 minutes of fame, however make one wrong move, people will change their opinion and move on to the next best thing.
"at some point we come down from the highs and so be it, we move on with our lives"
Acceptance that your 15 minutes of fame are up
"if life is just a fantasy life then could you live this fantasy life? If so, then would you?"
He is asking if you could really take this brillaint lifestyle despite the horrific outcome.
"just remember that the doors are not closeable and your motherfucking heroes are disposable"
Saying once you go in, there's no coming back, plus you're hereoes are soon to end up fucked over because of this lifestyle everyone wants
"let's talk about the hardcore that ain't hard anymore or the shit talkers who ain't shit anymore or the old fighters that can't fight anymore or the white kids who ain't white any more or the actors that don't act anymore or the rappers that don't rap anymore or the hipsters that don't hip anymore or the limpsters that can't limp anymore"
About how the fans will abandon you in a heartbeat because of a new trend. Some really great lyrics in this song!
limpsters, is that even a word?
I see you motherfucker suck because from your saying i understand you don't like LB. If you can think of anything you want why can't Fred think of a word f.e. "limpster"? This song is so amazing, i think it's just about understanding some purpose of life, "just live & let die" - shows that the artist agrees with life and he's no longer that angry. "Just live & let die" line is so amazing!
Well you definitely live up to your name "Klown". "Limpsters" is not a f**king word... so you can't blame the first post for mockingly pointing that out! Anyways, on to the meaning.
This song is about the second skin that comes with life in the spotlight and points out the fact that all the glamour (I'm Canadian, we spell it with a 'u') eventually comes to an end. He goes further to demonstrate that it happens everyday and it's a part of life, we all have a story (maybe not on E!Hollywood) and they all have a beginning, a climax and a conclusion. That's why you have to hold on to your greatest memories and cherish them, because social status doesn't matter... its all about what it means to you!
Hey Spongebob! Why do Limp Bizkit write such horrible lyrics?
Spongebob: southern accent Because...they're so darn stupid!
