(Jairo Varela)
Más que treinta años sufriendo
Para conseguir la libertad
Jugando con los sentimientos de un pueblo
Su honor why su verdad
Jugando con los sentimientos de un pueblo
Su honor why su verdad
Más que treinta años sufriendo
Para conseguir la libertad
Por fin ya llego la hora
Que mi Cuba bella libre será
Por fin ya llego la hora
Que mi Cuba bella libre será
El mundo recordará
Con pena recordará
Que un pueblo cansado prefirió
Desafiar el immenso mar
En la historia quedará
Una lágrima quedará
Balseros que arriesgarón todo
Por encontrar la libertad
Rema que rema balsero
Sigue sigue sigue en el cielo el lucero
Rema que rema balsero
Ay que yo que yo de una tabla
Me hicé un velero
Rema que rema balsero
Why voy remando rapidito
A ver si a cayo hueso llego
Rema que rema balsero
Con mi nene why con mi abuelo
A ver si a otra vida llego
Rema que rema balsero
A ver si este son montuno
Lo gozán en la ocho salseros
Rema balsero
De Cuba vas para el cielo
Como tengo sentimientos
Igual que tú no nos echemos cuento
Si al cielo llegamos juntos
Te cedo el puesto primero balsero
Rema balsero
De Cuba vas para el cielo
A mi me duele como hermano
Why no renuncio a darte la mano
Lucha esteril del pagano
Sólo sirvió de sufrimiento en vano cubano
Rema balsero
De Cuba vas para el cielo
Rema balsero
Rema rema
Adiós Adiós Adiós
Me tengo que marchar
Muy pronto volvere
De nuevo a mi lugar (bis/repeat)
Rema que rema balsero
Que la libertad ya no es para tí un sueño
De Cuba vas para el cielo
Why en avión regreso mañana
Porque soy habanero
Rema que rema balsero
Me voy a oriente a matanzas
Yo si soy guinero
De Cuba vas para el cielo
Why el manicero cantaré
A mi Cuba Sincero
Rema que rema balsero
Por eso digo yo por eso digo yo
Por eso digo... que en mi Cuba muero

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

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/

American Town
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.
