@[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.
Well I can
See you on the horizon like a
Storm that's soon to be and is it
So bad to be in love with a memory
Of you, smiling back at me
And it was subtle but it was, yeah it was subtle
But it was sexy
And I suppose I could tell you how I feel
But even I don't know if it's really real
And baby baby one day I will show you so you can see
Oh well, the secret's behind the mystery
But see baby its like thisâ?¦
I think I kinda just want your kiss
Just for the thrill and just maybe to miss
You won't when you're going, just so I know
That It can and it does get better than this,
'cause you know love is just a hit and miss
Well you're wrong and you jump and you sink and
It happens more than you'd thinkâ?¦
And I suppose I could tell you how I feel
But see I'd rather play it cool and keep it real
And maybe I could show you just so you could see â?¦
The secret behind the mysteryâ?¦
And it's, its just one of those days
When you'd wish it rain already
And the sky's no ordinary shade of gray
But you make it ok...
Oh maybe you should know that I do have a crush on you
'cause I see your trap and I fell right through
With me its always something new
To see..
And I suppose I could tell you how I feel
But that moment was magic, it was so surreal
Oh well I swear one day I will let you know
That I do, oh I do love you so...
See you on the horizon like a
Storm that's soon to be and is it
So bad to be in love with a memory
Of you, smiling back at me
And it was subtle but it was, yeah it was subtle
But it was sexy
And I suppose I could tell you how I feel
But even I don't know if it's really real
And baby baby one day I will show you so you can see
Oh well, the secret's behind the mystery
But see baby its like thisâ?¦
I think I kinda just want your kiss
Just for the thrill and just maybe to miss
You won't when you're going, just so I know
That It can and it does get better than this,
'cause you know love is just a hit and miss
Well you're wrong and you jump and you sink and
It happens more than you'd thinkâ?¦
And I suppose I could tell you how I feel
But see I'd rather play it cool and keep it real
And maybe I could show you just so you could see â?¦
The secret behind the mysteryâ?¦
And it's, its just one of those days
When you'd wish it rain already
And the sky's no ordinary shade of gray
But you make it ok...
Oh maybe you should know that I do have a crush on you
'cause I see your trap and I fell right through
With me its always something new
To see..
And I suppose I could tell you how I feel
But that moment was magic, it was so surreal
Oh well I swear one day I will let you know
That I do, oh I do love you so...

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,
I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
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.
American Town

Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
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.
So this is my favorite song, and i'm driving my roommate insain because i listen to it way to much but i just love it,
My favorite part is: "I think i kinda just want your kiss just for the thrill or mabye to miss" part
I love this song. Her voice is so breezy, it's beautiful.
Anyway, this song is about wanting to be in a relationship for the thrill and for the sake of being in a relationship, which is different than how she is now. But she's not in love with anything more than having someone to kiss and to miss.
' i sopose i could tell you how i feel but even i dont know if its really real". i love that line. and also 's it So bad to be in love with a memory.. of u' gotta love TP
