O Sole Mio?
O Sole mio
O Sole mio
Ha huh ha
So high give me your love, imagination
Run wild and tell me your mine,
I can never remember your name
So high give me your heart
Hey guardian angels
More light I'm falling in love
And I want to remember the way
Mother mother can't you see
Everyone's in love with me
O sole mio
So far given the light of distant ages
Sometimes I can never be sure
I can only remember today
So now given enough I'll heat the stages
How far is the mountain above
Where I wasn't a potion away
Mother mother can't you see
Everyone's in love with me
But only I know
All the people in the square
Try to act like nothings there
Oh sole mio
I was a rainbow
I was a rainbow
So now give me your love in celebration
Of life and love, of fascination
So now give me your heart
My guardian angel no
Oh no, oh ho
I was a rainbow
Mother mother, can't you see
Something's wrong inside of me
Every time I try to say the words they don't come out right
Mother mother if you please
Life has got me on my knees
I'm expecting someone's love to come and hit me blindside
Mother mother, if you care
Tell me I am unaware
Of what I'm doing to your beauty and your holy love life
Mother mother if you please
Something's wrong inside of me
Every time I try to say the words they don't come out right
And me I was a rainbow
(o sole mio) repeat chorus over following:
So high give me your love imagination
Run wild and tell me your mine, I can never remember your name
So high give me your heart hey guardian angels
More light I'm falling in love and I want to remember the way
So high give me your love, imagination
Run wild and tell me your mine, I can never remember your name
So high give me your heart hey guardian angels
More light I'm falling in love and I want to remember the way

    I love this song so much but have never had a clue what he is going on about.To that end I justify my irrational love of this song by looking on it as a piece of abstract art (for God's sake if anyone has a clue what is going on here please let me know)

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.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.
