You know I,
I memorized all your favorite things
Your favorite songs and how to sing
You played the strings and found my tone
I loved you so much with all my bones
Well it's been three years since I met you
Can't believe all the things that we've been through
You watched me grow up, I watched you change
Thought one day that we'd share a last name

(It's really nice to know that you think we're all out of time)
But darling don't you know we just started our lives?

(Yeah you're my baby, boy you know you spin me all around)
You drive me crazy girl, you flip my whole world upside down
(It ain't no secret boy you know I glow inside when I'm with you)
And just like sunshine girl, I hold you and I light up too

We could hide like everyday and just
Wait until the world goes and away and I
Don't care if we're all alone
I love you so much with all my bones
Well I try so hard to impress you
Love you way more than I know how to
Show you off and buy you things
"Sold my lambo to buy yo ring"

(Yeah you're my baby, boy you know you spin me all around)
You drive me crazy girl, you flip my whole world upside down
(It ain't no secret boy you know I glow inside when I'm with you)
And just like sunshine girl, I hold you and I light up too

(It's really nice to know that you think we're all out of time)
But darling don't you know we just started our lives?

x2
(Yeah you're my baby, boy you know you spin me all around)
You drive me crazy girl, you flip my whole world upside down
(It ain't no secret boy you know I glow inside when I'm with you)
And just like sunshine girl, I hold you and I light up too

Mountain Song
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."

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,

No Surprises
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.
