Björk
Heeeeeeee how!
He how!
He how!

Einar
One person calls someone
To pour the water,
Because it takes two to pour the water,

Björk
To plough takes two as well,
But only one to hold up the sky.

Einar
To plough takes two as well,
But only one to hold up the sky.

Einar
One plays the harp, beats a rock with a stick,

Björk
One plays the harp, beats a rock with a stick,
Becomes a priest at least, a delicious demon.
Hee how!, hee how!, hee how!

Einar
Least, a delicious demon.

Björk
Delicious demon, delicious demon,
Delicious demon, delicious demon

Björk
Two men need one money
But one money needs no man,
One is on ones knees, loses ones head,
Except maybe a delicious demon, hee how!

Einar
Two men need one money
But one money needs no man,

Einar
Two men need no money
But one money needs no man
One is on ones knees
Looses one head
Except maybe a
Delicious demon

Björk
Then one is no longer
Then one is no longer
Then one is no longer
No longer!

Björk & einar
Delicious demon
Delicious demon
Delicious, oh here he comes again waouh!
Delicious demon
Delicious demon!
So delicious!

    Björk


    I believe Björk describes a drug session with some friends.

    Another Vesion of this fantatic song is called "Organic Prankster"


    Heeeeeeee how! He how! He how!


    She gets high on some LSD, Ayuhasca or something else.

    "Heeee how!" could be an emotional expression of the incredible feeling of diving into another realm.

    The delay in "Heeee how!" expresses the delay that one may experience during his trip.

    You can hear the power and enthusiasm in her voice and how long she stretches the "Heeeeee"

    (getting high is a process that also doesn't come instantly and rises like her voice).


    Einar One person calls someone To pour the water, Because it takes two to pour the water,

    Björk To plough takes two as well, But only one to hold up the sky.

    Einar To plough takes two as well, But only one to hold up the sky.


    Now Einar describes the process of mixing the ingredients of the drug.

    It takes to people to plough and pour "the water" - that means to prepare everything -

    but it takes only one to "hold up the sky",

    that means to experience this adventurous and enligthening trip!


    Einar One plays the harp, beats a rock with a stick,

    Björk One plays the harp, beats a rock with a stick, Becomes a priest at least, a delicious demon. Hee how!, hee how!, hee how!

    Einar Least, a delicious demon.


    In the past lines they describe how they experience peoples actions

    during their drip. Someone in the group tryed to make music by beating

    a rock with a stick and pantomiming playing a harp that he only heared in his fantasy.

    Maybe the session was outside in the icelandic landscape.


    Björk Delicious demon, delicious demon, Delicious demon, delicious demon,

    Björk Two men need one money But one money needs no man, One is on ones knees, loses ones head, Except maybe a delicious demon, hee how!

    Einar Two men need one money But one money needs no man,

    Einar Two men need no money But one money needs no man One is on ones knees Looses one head Except maybe a Delicious demon


    "Two men need one money, But one money needs no man." All this doesn't make much sense to me,

    but I can imagine them being completely high and having a philosophical discussion about

    capitalism and money. Like always when people are on drugs and have discussions like that,

    the conclusions that are drawn and arguments that exchanged seem not to be very meaningful.


    Björk Then one is no longer Then one is no longer Then one is no longer No longer!

    Björk & einar Delicious demon Delicious demon Delicious, oh here he comes again waouh!


    Maybe Björk felt how the effect of the drug decreased and took some more: "Here he comes again WAAAOOUUHH!". "He" is the "Delicious Demon", the drug itself or the demon, that is released by it in her mind.

    Not by coincidence the band is called "The Sugarcubes", because LSD is somethimes trickled into sugar cubes.

    Delicious demon Delicious demon! So delicious!

    To plow takes two? Two men? One's on his knees... And he loses his head but gains a delicious demon?

    Totally about Brokeback Mountain-style forbidden gay sex.

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
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.

Mountain Song
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."

Blue
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.
