R-U-G-R-A-T-S

Take me there, I wanna go there
Take me there, let's go there
Take me to that great place with wonders and wishes
Take me there, I wanna go there
Take me there, you know where
Just take me to that great place with wonders and wishes

Sittin' here thinkin' 'bout yesterday
About what we did and how we used to play
Just the thought of you brings a smile upon my face
That's how it makes me feel to see you everyday
Whoa, yeah-yeah
Where we go, nobody knows
And what we do, is between me and you
So c'mon and take my hand, to that special place
Where smiles come to life, and dreams come true, ooh

Take me there, I wanna go there (I wanna go there)
Take me there, let's go there
Just take me to that great place with wonders and wishes
Take me there, I wanna go there
Take me there, you know where
Just take me to that great place with wonders and wishes

Let's make a wish
Close your eyes and count to five
'Cause you know that everything will be alright
See the magic in your eyes
You're strong enough, you know
To bring your dreams to life, oh
Oh, where we go, nobody knows
And what we do, is between me and you (you-you, you-you)
So c'mon and take my hand, to that special place
Don't want this dream to ever go away, oh yeah

Take me there, I wanna go there
Take me there, let's go there (all the way)
Take me to that great place with wonders and wishes (I wanna go, I gotta go, take me there)
Take me there, I wanna go there
Take me there, you know where
Just take me to that great place with wonders and wishes

Now Angelica's the one with all the exposure
Dil is the one they drop in the stroller
Tommy got the whole world on his shoulders
And Dil cries to sleep
'Til his eyes get bleak
And I couldn't of brang Chuckie, Chuckie to petro
Chuckie get scared, Chuckie says, "Let's go"
If I was a Rugrat, it would've been so real
Me and my twin would've been just like Phil and Lil

And with one wish, Blink grant you one trip
When we go in this adventure, who you wanna come with?
See, you're my little brother that I'll come get
Run with, but it's gotta be done quick
So, Chuckie is scared and Tommy is sad
And Phil and Lil misses their mommy and dad
So pick a time and date
And find a place
And I guarantee that we will all get home safe (just take me there)

Take me there, I wanna go there (me there)
Take me there, let's go there (to that special place)
Take me to that great place with wonders and wishes (I wanna go, I gotta go, let's go)
Take me there, I wanna go there (let's go, I wanna go there)
Take me there, you know where (I wanna go there, can we go there?)
Just take me to that great place with wonders and wishes (can we go there?)
(Can you take, take, take, take, take me?)

Take me there, I wanna go there (I wanna go, I need to go)
(I wanna go there)
Take me there, let's go there (I wanna go, I wanna go now)
Take me to that great place with wonders and wishes (let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go)
Take me there, I wanna go there (oh-oh, yeah)
Take me there, you know where (oh-oh, yeah, take me there)
Just take me to that great place with wonders and wishes (take me there)
(You can take me there) (let's go)

    This song is wonderful. It just talks about a place that describes your utopia. A place where you could feel comfortable and spend your whole life at. You would want to spend the whole day there if you could. I would definitely dedicate this song to my favorite place in the whole wide world. Great song, even with the Rugrats references. Hey, we all grew up with the show, right? (Well, not everyone, but at least in this generation!) :=)

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[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.

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,

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
