This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
This situation, if it gets any deeper could be critical
I'm not your love monkey so be taking back all the lies you sold
What did you want me to be
It's just too much now
So tell me so tell me so tell me one two three four
So what's your evil attitude
When you got me spending my time pleasing you
Why must you keep me underground
Tell me tell me, why you wanna bring me down?
Is that too much to give a damn
When I'm giving you one hundred and ten
Don't blink 'cause I won't be around
Tell me, so tell me why you wanna bring me down
Now your transmission is on the negative
You're on a losing streak
This information is getting ordinary and you're losing me
What's with your hostility when the lie's on me?
Well you're down to the last chance
So tell me so tell me uno dos tres cuatro
So what's your evil attitude
When you got me spending my time pleasing you
Why must you keep me underground
Tell me tell me, why you wanna bring me down?
Is that too much to give a damn
When I'm giving you one hundred and ten
Don't blink 'cause I won't be around
Tell me, so tell me why you wanna bring me down
Was it all just a waste of time
I don't wanna spend my whole life thinking bout it
Baby this is where I draw the line, I think I'm done
So what's your evil attitude
When you got me spending my time pleasing you
Why must you keep me underground
Tell me tell me, why you wanna bring me down?
Is that too much to give a damn
When I'm giving you one hundred and ten
Don't blink 'cause I won't be around
Tell me, so tell me why you wanna bring me down
Why you wanna bring me down
Tell me, tell me why you wanna bring me down
Why you wanna bring me down
Why you, why you, why you wanna bring me down
I'm not your love monkey so be taking back all the lies you sold
What did you want me to be
It's just too much now
So tell me so tell me so tell me one two three four
So what's your evil attitude
When you got me spending my time pleasing you
Why must you keep me underground
Tell me tell me, why you wanna bring me down?
Is that too much to give a damn
When I'm giving you one hundred and ten
Don't blink 'cause I won't be around
Tell me, so tell me why you wanna bring me down
Now your transmission is on the negative
You're on a losing streak
This information is getting ordinary and you're losing me
What's with your hostility when the lie's on me?
Well you're down to the last chance
So tell me so tell me uno dos tres cuatro
So what's your evil attitude
When you got me spending my time pleasing you
Why must you keep me underground
Tell me tell me, why you wanna bring me down?

Tell me, so tell me why you wanna bring me down
Why you wanna bring me down
Tell me, tell me why you wanna bring me down
Why you wanna bring me down
Why you, why you, why you wanna bring me down

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,
No Surprises
Radiohead
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
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.
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
I think that this song is pretty self-explanatory. But then again I'm really bad at interpreting songs. All I wanted to say was that I think it's an absolutely awesome song.
Anyway an awesome song with a great tune. I simply can't get this one out of my head! I really hope it's going to be a future single of hers!!
this song makes me laugh. i love the way she sings this! its like oldschool girl band.
reminds me alot of avril. one of my favouritesss.
what’s with your hostility when the LIGHTS on me
"...i think i'm done. SOMEBODY!
kelly clarkson can sing anything and make it sound BOMB. my gosh, such a good live jam, i'm sure.

but yeahh this is so not kelly but I DO love the way she sings it.FUCK Clive Davis
This song ia bout someone who obviously wants to bring her down, but she isn't going to put up with it. One of my favorite songs on this record.
This was originally recorded by the band Aranda. It was written by former Color Me Badd member Sam Watters, his songwriting partner Louis Biancaniello, and Dameon Aranda, the lead guitarist/vocalist of Aranda. The trio also penned the title track on All I Ever Wanted.
In publicity materials Clarkson described this as having a "kind of a punk-British Invasion sound."
Clarkson said on her website that recording this song was the album's turning point. She explained: "I sang that song through I don't know how many times, just because I was having so much fun. It was new and it was fresh and it didn't sound like anything on the radio. And after that, I went to my manager and said that I wanted to make a really fun, feisty album, and just wanted to go all the way with every song."
