My apocalyptical dream of a man behind a mask
A vision, delusion, a hallucination,
a something that led me astray
I have stared in a place
in a "never-been time"
I saw his feather is spinous, injecting a virus,
his mission will come to an end

When we dance with the dead,
sweet and feral liaison
Facing pestilence scenes
in my mirror of dreams

On the day when the sun disappears,
then I see the lights in a city of angels

Dehumanized toys dropping dead
with a strange manufacturing vice
They still live in fear of the old puppeteer:
he's the beast in a white panoply

With my stereoscope I saw pictures of death,
watching "War of the Worlds"
on the screen in my head

On the day when the sun disappears,
then I see the lights in a city of angels
And we're watching a downfalling star
It reflects in a river of tears
on the day when the sun disappears
(x2)

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,

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
