The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
Speak loudly of the holy Lord of Haidakhan.
Tell of God, the personification of Truth, Consciousness and Bliss.
Proclaim holy Lord Shiva with the Goddess Mother,
The Sustainer, Inspirer, and World Master.
Hail, hail to Lord Haidakhan,
Who incarnated for the liberation of the world.
Thou alone art my true divine Master,
Shiva invisible, unperceivable, highest God.
Your heart is very full of mercy,
One who surrenders to you is immediately liberated.
What pain in the world cannot be removed,
Instantly by your grace, O king of sages?
You always speak words which remove our fear.
Baba fulfills all desires.
Oh Lord, you are the source of auspiciousness, the remover of evil.
I sacrifice everything at your lotus feet.
Great Sage, you speak very sweetly, extremely benevolently,
Your sentences are the essence of knowledge.
The true eternal religion, full of generosity,
Tells of knowledge combined with holy work.
Each one's own duty is good for him,
Jealousy and hatred are not.
Truth, simplicity and love, brother,
This duty alone brings man happiness.
Meditate on the Lord's name, brother, to purify the heart.
Find the Lord sitting in your heart.
Holy Shiva is residing in your heart.
Find him there, leave ignorance and disappointment behind.
The great saint, an ocean of all qualities,
Whose beginning and end nobody knows.
Haidakhan is a wonderful place
Very holy giving joy and solace.
The roar of the Gautama Ganga is heard day and night,
Siddhas, gods and demons worship there every day.
Holy mount Kailash, so beautiful,
Looking at it, the mind yearns for it.
Under that mountain is a beautiful cave,
That great cave is described in the Vedas.
The wild animals wandering in the dense forest,
They forget all enmity among themselves.
Since the Lord started living here,
The "Garden of the Heaven's" beauty faded in comparison.
All glory to this holy place is ours,
Which Shiva enjoys as his living place.
Thy merciful look gives love of Thy holy feet.
By no other method can one get a pure mind.
Now Lord, show me grace in this way,
Let me renounce all and do meditation day and night.
Praise to Amba, mother of the universe.
All forms are one, Thou, mother goddess Amba
Tell of God, the personification of Truth, Consciousness and Bliss.
Proclaim holy Lord Shiva with the Goddess Mother,
The Sustainer, Inspirer, and World Master.
Hail, hail to Lord Haidakhan,
Who incarnated for the liberation of the world.
Thou alone art my true divine Master,
Shiva invisible, unperceivable, highest God.

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” 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.
