This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
29 year old girls always got the blues
Well I don't know why but I know it's true
So give me burgundy to splash my breath
And while I count the ways that I've been blessed
We all find a savior in ourselves
I'm just another poet hero rhyming words
About falling stars and battle scars
Searching for ways to mend up broken hearts
We all find a savior in ourselves
Yeah we all find a savior in ourselves
And don't we always find a way
To lay waste to another day
And are we alive enough to say
That we're good enough
And are we alive enough today
To know that we're good enough
There's 29 days still left in June
And the summer sun sets me in the mood
So give me something dirty so I'm good to you
And I don't curse the day I let you through
Another poet hero finds the world is blind
There are no more familiar stars just drunks in bars
And there's no way to mend a fucked up heart
We all find a savior in someone else
And don't we always find a way
To lay waste to another day
And are we alive enough to say
That we're good enough
And did we live our last goodbye
And am I too late to apologize
Because I remember when we were alive
And we were good enough
I look for you in the faded background
And you find yourself in the scenery of my place
Some other time, some other place
Some other time, some other place
And didn't we always find a way
I stake my claim on the best of your days
We were alive enough to say
That we were good enough
And did we live our last goodbye
It's never too late to apologize
And I remember when we were alive
And we were good enough
Yeah we were good enough
Yeah we were good enough
Yeah we were good enough
Well I don't know why but I know it's true
So give me burgundy to splash my breath
And while I count the ways that I've been blessed
We all find a savior in ourselves
I'm just another poet hero rhyming words
About falling stars and battle scars
Searching for ways to mend up broken hearts
We all find a savior in ourselves
Yeah we all find a savior in ourselves
And don't we always find a way
To lay waste to another day
And are we alive enough to say
That we're good enough
And are we alive enough today
To know that we're good enough
There's 29 days still left in June
And the summer sun sets me in the mood
So give me something dirty so I'm good to you
And I don't curse the day I let you through
Another poet hero finds the world is blind
There are no more familiar stars just drunks in bars
And there's no way to mend a fucked up heart
We all find a savior in someone else
And don't we always find a way
To lay waste to another day
And are we alive enough to say
That we're good enough
And did we live our last goodbye
And am I too late to apologize
Because I remember when we were alive
And we were good enough
I look for you in the faded background
And you find yourself in the scenery of my place
Some other time, some other place
Some other time, some other place
And didn't we always find a way
I stake my claim on the best of your days
We were alive enough to say
That we were good enough
And did we live our last goodbye
It's never too late to apologize
And I remember when we were alive
And we were good enough
Yeah we were good enough
Yeah we were good enough
Yeah we were good enough

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,
Magical
Ed Sheeran
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.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
