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.
Hey Mr. DJ this sounds fantastic
This champion sound is gonna kick your bucket
This is not boombastic cuz it's not plastic
You can ask the ghetto youth
They already know the lyrics
Mira como empienza la fiesta con mi champion sound
Como una metralleta-ta disparo mi sabor
Mis letras son la balas que agujeran al cabrón
Si quieren pelear en ganga aqui tengo mi escuadrón
This is the champion sound for the community
The room is filled up with smoke coming from my Sensi
Maximum respect to the New York Posse
Mad Lion, Rocker T & my teacher Jamalski
Sale mi voz como bala de cañón
Muchos imitadores pero no pueden copiar mi son
DF, Caracas, Buenos Aires y Colon
Y todos disfrutan con mi Champion Sound
My wireless is connected to the....
The echo-chamber is connected to the...
The turntables are connected to the...
The New York posse is connected to the champion sound
Sexy Gal in Poonani prints smoking ensalada
If you keep moving like this se me para la macana
Sweet pum pum juice like honey in my banana
Sweet loving raggamuffin from night to la manana!
El pana Rico improvizando botó la bola
Por eso llegó Blanquito y le rompio su diploma
Y la zona 7 si quieren pelea
Aqui llega Blanquito y se los come con jalea
Yo no soy campeón, tampoco soy the best
Solo digo lo que vivo, simplemente como lo ves
Hablo con sinceridad al derecho y al revez
Pero con mi champion sound nadie puede joder
If you think you gonna mash up the town
Me have to tell you
We gonna kick you with the champion sound
Originator, regulator, mic annihilator,
When you broadcast the demonstration, no one can be greater!
This champion sound is gonna kick your bucket
This is not boombastic cuz it's not plastic
You can ask the ghetto youth
They already know the lyrics
Mira como empienza la fiesta con mi champion sound
Como una metralleta-ta disparo mi sabor
Mis letras son la balas que agujeran al cabrón
Si quieren pelear en ganga aqui tengo mi escuadrón

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

@[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."
