This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
If I don't think about the fact that she left me
If I don't see the pearls fall from the sky
If I don't hear the accusations of blasphemy
If I don't feel the tears in my eyes
This is the best day of my life
You say you'll call me and then you don't
I'll want to kiss you and then I won't
We both do nothing and call it love
Is this love?
Is this love?
This morning I wanted a cup of coffee
But I didn't have any cream
Last night I wanted some inspiration
But I didn't have any dreams
Coupled with the fact that you belong to another
Whose name is self-righteousness
So evil girl, if one of us has a date
With the undertaker, which one will it be?
You can cry forever, but you'll get no sympathy
This is the best day of my life
I've got three chains o' gold
And they will shine forever
They are the nucleus of my soul
Melt down, no, they will never
I've got three chains o' gold
And they will shine forever
They are the nucleus of my soul
Melt down, no, they will never
Yes
Give back the chains, if you don't you will die
Nothing should come between you and I
I've got three chains o' gold
And they will shine forever
If one of us has to go
You will go before me
If one of us has to go (three chains o' gold)
You will go before me
(Three chains o' gold)
You will go before me, baby (they will shine forever)
'Cause I sho 'nuff say you will
(Three chains o' gold)
(You will go before me)
(You will go before me)
(You will go before me)
(you will go before me)
I've got three chains o' gold
They gonna shine
Forever, forever, forever
(Three chains o' gold)
If I don't see the pearls fall from the sky
If I don't hear the accusations of blasphemy
If I don't feel the tears in my eyes
This is the best day of my life
You say you'll call me and then you don't
I'll want to kiss you and then I won't
We both do nothing and call it love
Is this love?
Is this love?
This morning I wanted a cup of coffee
But I didn't have any cream
Last night I wanted some inspiration
But I didn't have any dreams
Coupled with the fact that you belong to another
Whose name is self-righteousness
So evil girl, if one of us has a date
With the undertaker, which one will it be?
You can cry forever, but you'll get no sympathy
This is the best day of my life
I've got three chains o' gold
And they will shine forever
They are the nucleus of my soul
Melt down, no, they will never
I've got three chains o' gold
And they will shine forever
They are the nucleus of my soul
Melt down, no, they will never
Yes
Give back the chains, if you don't you will die
Nothing should come between you and I
I've got three chains o' gold
And they will shine forever
If one of us has to go

If one of us has to go (three chains o' gold)
You will go before me
(Three chains o' gold)
You will go before me, baby (they will shine forever)
'Cause I sho 'nuff say you will
(Three chains o' gold)
(You will go before me)
(You will go before me)
(You will go before me)
(you will go before me)
I've got three chains o' gold
They gonna shine
Forever, forever, forever
(Three chains o' gold)

Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
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.
It's a opera orchestra demonstration of the genius portraying the 3 stages of a broken relationship.It' all the stages of feelings you go through when you break up with someone you really still care for. At first you are content thinking everything is going to be alright but you really not sure if it's the end or just a temporary seperation to get thoughts together but as time go on you become inferiated and you have this desperate attempt to fight back and keep it to protect your feeling then you not truly letting go yet but then one day you wake after a long while and that person is still not there you come to except it,pick up your pieces and move on.
The 3 chains are the holy trinity. It's about him dating a woman who tests his spirituality.
I always thought the second verse was funny..... "This morning I wanted a cup of coffee/ But I didn't have any cream/ Last night I wanted some inspiration/ But I didn't have any dreams" That's hilarious!
Agreed. I laughed when I read that, and I've never even heard the song!
A correction in the lyrics:
The first line is "If I don't think about the fact that you left me", not "she left me"; the entire song is a dialogue and Prince talks to her in Second Person ("You will go before me" not "she will go before me"). "She" or "her" are examples of Third Person and Prince stays consistent.
