This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
When you cross that bridge into the west
And all my memories follow you there
Where love took shape
And love woke shame
Now I'm left to take the blame
From rushin' in
From closin' up
For sellin' off
What we've built up
You were never wrong
All the same
My way was so hard to change
So hard to change
So hard to change
This woolen blanket
This seaside view
And The war we waged on
Ocean chill
As we slipped away
The grey stood still
Held captive upon this hill
And the lies he told
The result of fame
Where all your actions
Belie your name
When the rising sun
Won't break my fall
You'll still be the one I call
The one I call
The one I call
And all my memories follow you there
Where love took shape
And love woke shame
Now I'm left to take the blame
From rushin' in
From closin' up
For sellin' off
What we've built up
You were never wrong
All the same
My way was so hard to change
So hard to change
So hard to change
This woolen blanket
This seaside view
And The war we waged on
Ocean chill
As we slipped away
The grey stood still
Held captive upon this hill
And the lies he told
The result of fame
Where all your actions
Belie your name
When the rising sun
Won't break my fall
You'll still be the one I call
The one I call
The one I call

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
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."

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,

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
can't even think of what this song is about. Probably something "deep" and meaningful to Clark.
All I gotta say it's probably one of the most beautiful songs I've ever had the privilege of listening to at home on my computer, and live in concert
One of the best songs off their album of the same name (US). The live version is even better, especially love the little bit extra Todd adds at the end, check it out . . . .
