Get rolled with the fever on the dance floor

Now who got a fever for the flavor
Who can dig the way that I flex on a track, I'm causin' rampage
Ricky Rick on point with da 9-5 style from my lips, they'll be rollin' mad joints
So put your hands in the air 'cause there's a party over here so grab yourself a beer
Or we can get our fever on I'm with it, so let me put my big brown beaver on
I'm coming with the discos, I can flip so, I'ma try the solo tip
Something for the honeys in the crowd, lend me your ear so I can turn the party out
'Til tomorrow afternoon, 'cause when I raise my spirits, no one leaves the room
So can ya tell do ya feel the
Mad skills coming with the fever, fever, fever

Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive

Get rolled with the fever on the dance floor

Step to the side, you'd better run and hide
More to the side, everybody wants to stay alive

Everybody's in the house, we had to run this back so you can bring your flares out
N-Trance and the only one, we got it goin' on, so let me get my flowin' on
It's the blast from the pasts that you heard of, me and the boys comin' down with murder
And it's gotta be da way, everybody wants to make a move, so just party
Or we can have a jam, so get your move on, I'ma take this groove and slam
Flip how I want it flipped, from the back to the front, when I drops me the manuscript
'Cause I got the moves, and I'm always gonna flow with the crazy, crazy groove
So can ya tell do ya feel the
Mad skills coming with the fever, fever, fever

Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive

Get rolled with the fever on the dance floor

Step to the side, you'd better run and hide
More to the side, everybody wants to stay alive (yeah)
Step to the side, you'd better run and hide
More to the side, everybody wants to stay alive

Everybody in the house c'mon and let me hear you say "Ho" (Ho)
Everybody in the house c'mon and let me hear you say "Ho, ho" (Ho, ho)
Everybody in the house c'mon and let me hear you say "Ho" (Ho)
Everybody in the house c'mon and let me hear you say "Ho, ho, ho" (Ho, ho, ho)

It's about time, everybody in the house bust a move to my vicious rule and rhymes
Ricky Rick on the tip, with my boys bringin' disco noise, as I drop the wickedness
Getting sharp with the flow, we took a Bees Gees loop, and broke it down like Lego
A disco lick that's deeper, 'cause we gotta get with da fever, fever, fever

Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive

Get rolled with the fever on the dance floor

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,

Just A Little Lovin'
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/

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.
