I wrote the letter just the other day to nobody in particular
But if anyone were to read a bit - they'd think I was a bit pecular
But in matters not what they think of me, it's only what I know is real
And so that's left that matters now - is that the feeling's back

The feeling's back and you just can't stop it
The feeling's back and you just can't stop it

I fought a thousand times, I never knew the meaning of the word fear
Till that one day when I stood alone, staring straight in the mirror

It's not a pretty sight, and even worse it's so hard to face
Until I realize I'm the only one that put me in this place

The feeling's back and you just can't stop it
The feeling's back and you just can't stop it

I'm gonna breathe I'm gonna live - that's right - nothing's gonna stop me
I'm gonna shout I'm gonna scream - that's right - nothing's gonaa stop me
I'm gonna run, I'm gonna fly - that's right - nothing's gonna stop me
I'm gonna fight I'm gonna win - that's right - nothing's gonna stop me
Nothing's gonna stop me, nothing's gonna stop me now - cause the feeling's back

And you gotta love the feeling
I dug my hole too deep, I couldn't admit, I didn't know when to stop
But you can only dig your hole six feet until the dirt comes back to top
I've got a long way left to climb but I'll still look you straight in the eye
And I can honestly say I'll never quit - not even on the day I die

The feeling's back and you just can't stop it
The feeling's back and you just can't stop it

    And you gotta love the feeling I dug my hole too deep - I couldn't admit, I didn't know when to stop But you can only dig your hole six feet until the dirt comes back to top I've got a long way left to climb but I'll still look you straight in the eye And I can honestly say I'll never quit - not even on the day I die

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,

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
