This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Where to go I had no idea
26.10 was the price to pay
A messed up kid with no ideals at all
I thought, those 26.10 I shouldn't give 'em away
I remember this young guy died and I took his part
He got far too many stitches on his pretty face
Long time to see but I always thought us two would be serious
I was looking around town, thinking the same as you
I'm far gone but your long distance call
And your capital letters keep me asking for more
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like I know
I'm far gone but your long distance call
And your capital letters keep me asking for more
Where to go I had no idea about it
Most of the people do, there are only doing just fine
I don't wanna stay in place no more, see
Ain't doing well well well, I am only doing just fine
Long time no see, long time no say
Got little to tell, I don't say much but I might
Something always told me us two would be serious
I am looking around town, thinking the same as you
I'm far gone but your long distance call
And your capital letters keep me asking for more
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like I know
I'm far gone but your long distance call
And your capital letters keep me asking for more
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like I know
I'm far gone but your long distance call
And your capital letters keep me asking for more
Long time no see
Long time no say
26.10 was the price to pay
A messed up kid with no ideals at all
I thought, those 26.10 I shouldn't give 'em away
I remember this young guy died and I took his part
He got far too many stitches on his pretty face
Long time to see but I always thought us two would be serious
I was looking around town, thinking the same as you
I'm far gone but your long distance call
And your capital letters keep me asking for more
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like I know
I'm far gone but your long distance call
And your capital letters keep me asking for more
Where to go I had no idea about it
Most of the people do, there are only doing just fine
I don't wanna stay in place no more, see
Ain't doing well well well, I am only doing just fine
Long time no see, long time no say
Got little to tell, I don't say much but I might
Something always told me us two would be serious
I am looking around town, thinking the same as you

And your capital letters keep me asking for more
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like I know
I'm far gone but your long distance call
And your capital letters keep me asking for more
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like that
It's never been like I know
I'm far gone but your long distance call
And your capital letters keep me asking for more
Long time no see
Long time no say

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."
Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
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,
Blue
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.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Cant believe i am the first to comment on this song. It is fantastic. So damm funky. One of those songs you just cant get out of your head.
The lyrics are a little sad but i really don't understand them. I think the song talks about a relationship and how time and distance has ultimately results in the two drifting apart.
Great Song!! Would appreciate if someone else could shed some light on its meaning.....
