Well I watched on CBS as Rudy made it, it's now on
T.V. debut.
And through all the big commotions it
was clear that she was missing me too.
And I try,and I try, and I try, and I try, cause it would.
And I scream, and I scream, and I scream, and I
scream, cause it would.

Stuck in the thought, that she was ready to go.
She said "I miss you for an instant but that
instant is old."
And she said, "Technology, it needs me."
I'm screaming, I'm mad, I gotta daily ?
She said "I just don't feel like myself."
And she said. "Technology it needs me."

We're sinking like sand.
We were tailors to the house of your dream.
On the surface she was sure its still regardless shes the homecoming queen.

And I try, and I try, and I try, and I try, cause
it would.
And I scream, and I scream, and I scream, and I scream, cause it would.

Stuck in the thought, that she was ready to go.
She said "I miss you for an instant but that
instant is old."
And she said. "Technology, it needs me."
Well if you want me then I'd tell ya, "Too bad."
Cause I gotta be by myself.
And she said, "I'm all your fault I'm leaving."

And I try, and I try, and I try, and I try, cause
it would.
And I scream, and I scream, and I scream, and I scream, cause it would.

Stuck in the thought, that she was ready to go.
She said "I miss you for an instant but that instant is old."
And she said, "Technology, it needs me."
Well if you want me then I'd tell ya, "Too bad."
Cause I gotta be by myself. And she said, "I'm all your fault I'm leavin."

Oh yeah! In the end, its your fault, and your
fault, and your fault, and your fault, and your
fault.
Oh yeah, yeah! In the end, its your
fault, and your fault, and your fault, and your
fault, and your fault.

    Just put this song on a mix-tape... nice upbeat song about a boring girl. I'd say it's about wanting to believe something is there when it's not, about getting dumped by a hot chick who was not really into you, and the guy tries and screams like the TV would to keep her attention, but she uses technology to put him off. Didn't like several nuances of the lyrics above, so thought I'd post my own:

    Well I watched on CBS as Rudy made it's now on T.V. debut. And through all the big commercials it's clear that she was missing me too. And I try, and I try, and I try, and I try, cause it would. And I scream, and I scream, and I scream, and I scream, cause it would.

    But through all these thoughts, she said "I'm ready to go." She said "I miss you for an instant but that instant is old." And she said, "Technology, it needs me." I'm screaming at ten like on a daily talk-show. She said "I... didn't feel like myself." And she said, "Technology it needs me."

    We're sinking like sailors. We were tailors to the house of your dream. On the surface she was shirtless but regardless still a homecoming queen. And I try, and I try, and I try, and I try, cause it would. And I scream, and I scream, and I scream, and I scream, cause it would.

    Still stuck in the thought, that she was ready to go, she said "I miss you for an instant but that instant is old." And she said, "Technology, it needs me." Well if you want me then I would tell ya, "Too bad." Cause I... gotta be by myself. And she said, "I'm all your fault I'm leavin."

    And I try, and I try, and I try, and I try, cause it would. And I scream, and I scream, and I scream, and I scream, cause it would.

    Still stuck in the thought that she was ready to go, she said "I miss you for an instant. That instant is old." And she said, "Technology, it needs me." Now if you want me then I will tell ya, "Too bad." Cause I... gotta be by myself. And she said. "I'm all your fault I'm leavin."

    Oh yeeeaahh! In the end, its your fault, and your fault, and your fault, and your fault, and your fault. Oh yeeeaahh, yeah! In the end, its your fault, and your fault, and your fault, and your fault, and your fault.

Cajun Girl
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
@[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.

Gentle Hour
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,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
