I try to count the stars tonight

As I look up into the sky

Out of nowhere it appeared

And I let go of all my fears

A man just screamed a sigh of delight

A blazing stream of dazzling white

Warm breeze caress my skin

Holds me close and sucks me in

This black hole, in this black...



So impressive, so beautiful

As fast as a bullet, my heart is full

It’s so impressive, so beautiful

As fast as a bullet, my mouth is full

Enjoy, joy, joy, joy yes

Enjoy joy, joy, joy



Crawling on my hands and knees

Leaves are dancing off the trees

Higher than an aeroplane

Dry my tears, I’ll rise again yeah!

I just saw a shooting star

Out the sunroof of my car

Round the mountains, up the hills

I swear to god this view could kill

In this black hole, in this black hole

In this black hole, sucks me in, in this black…



So impressive, so beautiful

As fast as a bullet my heart is full

It’s so impressive, so beautiful

As fast as a bullet my mouth is full

Enjoy, joy, joy, joy yes

Enjoy joy, joy, joy

Yeah I’ll enjoy, joy, joy, joy

You enjoy, joy, joy, joy

In this black hole

    I love this song. It's really catchy. Temposhark is a pretty cool band. I think this song is about realising how beautiful life is and celebrating this fact. The repetition of "this black hole" is.. (i think) the view of the world through his eyes.

    But then sometimes I think it's about him being on drugs and everything becomes beautiful and exciting. lol but i guess that's highly unlikely.

    I actually thought that this song was about sex, considering the lines "A man just screamed a sigh of delight A blazing stream of dazzling white Warm breeze caress my skin"

    I mean, honestly. What do you think of when you hear that?

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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.

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."

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,

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
