Baby I'm sorry
For whatever it was I always did;
The way it went down and always is;
The way that I am makes it all my fault?

You know if I could change who I am right now
I wouldn't do it no, no...
And if I could make all my past be gone
I wouldn't change a thing, no.
Cause when we first met all you wanted was me...yeah
Now all you want is your apology from me for being who I said I'd be, baby

I'm sorry
For whatever it was I always did;
The way it went down and always is;
The way that I am makes it all my fault.

When two people start to fall in love
you fall up then you fall right down.
Cause it never seems to be what it was
when we're clutching straws and drowning in love.
I don't feel bad about admitting the truth,
Cause honesty's my policy with you.
You say that I'm lying, I say you want me to...
but I love you...

Well, I'm sorry
For whatever it was I always did;
The way it went down and always is;
The way that I am makes it all my fault.

I'm gonna be me it's my fault
I'd feel a lot better if you said it's my fault

Sorry! For whatever it was and all
Sorry! the way that it went down and all
Sorry! the way I am it's all
my fault, my fault I'm sorry.

I take it all back now

    This song seems sarcastic.

    It's about a guy who isn't gonna change for his woman, nor should he. The girl is angry with the way that he is, and he's being sarcastic in saying, "yea, I'm sorry...I'm sorry for being me."

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,

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
