"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.
Umm vinushka ほら umm
Umm vinushka vinushka
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
雲と交わす 呼吸を止めて
嗚呼 ただ 盲目の殻
Ah ah 此処が底か? 陰りに身を焼かれ
嗚呼 ただ 忘れていたい
蟻の巣へと 欲を滑らせ
さあ 今 生まれ変わればいい ah ah ah ah
明日を眠らせて 振り向く安らぎ
鋭く尖る 感情に身を任せて
うねる流れさえ生きてる証と
涙に耽る明日を誘う ah ah
うえつくドグラ マグラ
斑の痛みと唯一の人格
色取り取りに飾りつけられた瞳も もういらない
また偽善が連れ去って行くのか?
独りきりの真っ赤な夜舞台
湧き上がる立役者に捧げる
此処が真実だ
誤魔化せない心の片隅には「まだ此処に居たい」
許せないのは誰?
冷えた声を響かせ 誓う
業と歩む 天地裂けた我この身と叫ぶ
罰と刻む 風と消えろ我の証は?
業と歩む 天地裂けた我この身と叫ぶ
罰と刻む 風と消えろ我の証は?
「金剛に輝く月はもう 見飽きそうなくらい眺めたんだ
狼にもなれそうにない 闇に狂いそうだ
首を喰らいたい 儚き残骸 眠らせはしないから
甘えたい年頃か 小夜なら 君に狂いそうだ」
誰しもが幸福とばかりに 手を伸ばし闇に潜む鬼となる
もうすでに終わりは生まれた
形は零に生まれ子宮に這い戻り腐る
繰り返す度 崩れてゆくお前等の面が
耳を砕く真相には 誰も触れやしない
抑圧された意思
罪を贖い命よ去れ
Umm vinushka ほら umm
Umm vinushka ah ah vinushka
儚きアンチテーゼ 咽び泣く地へと
テーゼに浸る共有に骨を埋めて
憂鬱 背負うまま ざらつく津波に
さらわれ苦い涙と笑う
価値を見出せず 首縊り十三階段
手を叩き馴れ合う人
女々しい思想に混ざり傷付ける
そんな君がなんだか悲しすぎる ah
血しぶく 本能
踏み潰し ah 死を語る
業と歩む 天地裂けた我この身と叫ぶ
罰と刻む 風と消えろ我の証は?
業と歩む 天地裂けた我この身と叫ぶ
罰と刻む 風と消えろ我の証は?

罪を贖い命よ去れ
俺が悪であるが故に
生きる意味さえ罪なのか ah ah ah ah woo

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
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.
That outburst at 4:40 makes me picture KYO in a Child Prey/Raccoon esque costume having a seizure while beating some corporate pig with his red metal stage platform to the beat of the song...
O_O<br /> <br /> ...<br /> <br /> Now that you had said that I can kinda see that too, lol XD
Pre-Death Metal: sitting alone in a dark asylum thingy slowly growing insane as days pass...<br /> <br /> Death Metal Part: breaks down and goes fucking nuts and start banging on the walls and starts having seizures...<br /> <br /> Post-Death metal: a sort of a blood spewing seizure convulsing like a madman scratching the hell outta himself, and the five last high pitched squeals he's on the floor convulsing to the sound of those squeals, breaks free to look for victems to slaughter. then kills everyone...but then noticed it was a bad dream.<br /> <br /> 2nd death metal part: goes crazy after that...<br /> <br /> I'm THAT visual about it.
