Crawl out my eyes and I
feeling the sound and I
get my feet, get my wrists
off the ground and I
needed to say nothing
no more to give to you
no more to tell you
you curl up the blood in me.

I want them all an I
I want them all an I
I want them all an I
to send the sea back out.
Get off the sidelines
just put your feet forward
get in my eye line and
sprawl out your chains .

You got a love like semtex
bring it to me
bring it to me
bring it to me.
You got a love like semtex
bring it to me
bring it to me
where I can see.

Get in between all the
good and the wrong ways
you make the floor move
in all of my hallways.
We got it sweet now
ain't nothing calling
I'm at your feet now but girl
I'm still falling at you.

I want them all an I
I want them all an I
I want them all an I
to send the sea back out.
Bring on your heat now
and make my skin burn
you make my fingers
turn 3000 degrees

(Repeat chorus)

Get off the hand rail
step onto my train
I think this calling has
been falling for an age now.
Don't ever see why we
have to live lies.
We ain't so sick, we're just
part of the list.

(Repeat chorus)

Now!

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,

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

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.
