Hottest
Finest

Everybody want to be
Wearing jewellery
Escaping reality
Runnin the city
So ya want to be number one
Don't forget where ya came from
Its not about me and you
It's about the things we do
Most guys don't have a clue
Material issues

How can I make you see the real things in life are free

Hottest
Finest

We don't need someone
That could show you what you loving
Need someone
That'll neva let you down
Need someone
To tell you that they love you
And always be around

You could be the hottest
You could be the finest
It don't matter to me
You could be the baddest
Be the most stylish
You could be rollin in money
It don't matter what you got
If your heart is outta love
You could be the hottest
You could be the finest
It don't matter to me

Outta my [unknown] things
Wouldn't mind a diamond ring
But trust me I'd be chippin in
And take what life brings
Gotta do what you decide
But do what feels right
I just want to keep it real
That just how I feel
Its not about the ????
But the are-E-S-P-E-see-T

How can I make you see the real things in life are free

Hottest
Finest

We don't need someone
That could show you what you loving
Need someone
That'll neva let you down
Need someone
To tell you that they love you
And always be around

You could be the hottest
You could be the finest
It don't matter to me
You could be the baddest
Be the most stylish
Be rollin' in money
It don't matter what you got
If your heart is outta love
You could be the hottest
You could be the finest
It don't matter to me

If you got it
You don't have to flaunt it
If I don't show it
Don't mean that I ain't got it
No it don't mean a thing
If you ain't got real things

You could be the hottest
You could be the finest
It don't matter to me (matter to me)
You could be the baddest
Be the most stylish
You could be rollin in money (rollin in money)
It don't matter what you got (oh no)
If your heart is outta love

You could be the hottest (hottest)
You could be the finest (finest)
It don't matter to me
You could be the baddest (baddest)
Be the most stylish (stylish)
You could be rollin in money
It don't matter what you got
If your heart is outta love
You could be the hottest
Be the finest
It don't matter to me

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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."

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.
