In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
I see you walkin' as you're walkin' by
I gotta wonder, gotta wonder why
I'm gonna give it to you just one more time
'Cause baby, when I see your face
You take me away to that special place
Take me away and you're tellin' me that you're mine
You're never ever gonna see
That baby, it's just you and me
Come on, baby girl, now you're so fine
Come on, baby, take my hand
Come on, girl, you've gotta understand
That I'm going away so that I can be with you
We're gonna
Here we go, here we go, boom, boom, boom
Clearin' the room, starin' like a goon
If you're under the zero sound you will be soon
Estamos trayendo mucho ruido
Why no pueden decir nada
'Bout the phunk style that we do, we get down
I thought forever, happiness it was so close to me
Happiness too good to be, too good to be, too good to be, yeah, yeah
I swore I'd always have you by my side
But now, I know, I was just along for the ride, the ride, oh, yeah
Fumondo mota just ain't no thing
Why acabo de suber tu madre just the same yeah
I got, I got my boys, we came to make noise
And everybody's gonna be down with the phunk sound
Be together, I thought forever, well, happiness is so close to me
Happiness too good to be, too good to be, too good to be, yeah, yeah
I swore I'd always have you by my side
But now, I know, I was just along for the ride
You heard it once before, come one and hear it again
Bitches ain't shit, but hoes and trix yeah, yeah, yeah
One, two, everybody lemme go
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go
You tore me all apart, you put me right in two
Well, nothing was there like it was supposed to
But fuck it, forget it because nothing's the same
I'm moving up in life making myself a name
Push me around, do what you gotta do
You cold-hearted bitch, I gotta big fuck you
Movin' up in life and I'm forgettin' about you
Can't you see, you fuckin' bitch we're through?
Yeah, yeah and I'm forgettin' about you
I gotta wonder, gotta wonder why
I'm gonna give it to you just one more time
'Cause baby, when I see your face
You take me away to that special place
Take me away and you're tellin' me that you're mine
You're never ever gonna see
That baby, it's just you and me
Come on, baby girl, now you're so fine
Come on, baby, take my hand
Come on, girl, you've gotta understand
That I'm going away so that I can be with you
We're gonna
Here we go, here we go, boom, boom, boom
Clearin' the room, starin' like a goon
If you're under the zero sound you will be soon
Estamos trayendo mucho ruido
Why no pueden decir nada
'Bout the phunk style that we do, we get down
I thought forever, happiness it was so close to me
Happiness too good to be, too good to be, too good to be, yeah, yeah
I swore I'd always have you by my side
But now, I know, I was just along for the ride, the ride, oh, yeah
Fumondo mota just ain't no thing
Why acabo de suber tu madre just the same yeah
I got, I got my boys, we came to make noise

Little Feat
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
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
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."
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
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.
Really? No one? No one has ever had an ex like that? I think this is just his way of letting his frustration out. Can you imagine an ex like that and then just screaming those last couple of lines out? That’s some good venting right there!
Awesome tell-off song! I'd really hate to be the girl this is for.
awesome build up into the last part.
this is by far the best song i have ever heard, authority zero is amazing
