Queen of Hearts

Tankard

The day I saw your face
I knew you were my only love
So blonde and innocent
A gift from heaven up above

I'm praying for our love
Forever I await you call
My room a temple now
A million photos on the wall

Baby I need you
The feelings that I get
I want to please you
My dreams are oh so wet

Please don't ignore me
For we must be as one
Oh can you feel me
Oh baby, here I come

Fuck all the royalty
I'm in love with the Queen of Hearts
Fuck all the millionaires
I'm in love with the Queen of Hearts
Fuck all the journalists
I'm in love with the Queen of Hearts

You are my Daily
Mirror and my Son
You are my Colour
My Star, oh you're the one

I want to be your
Royal family
Why was the music
By Elton John, not me?

They say you're dead and gone
You're livin'deep inside of me
We're lying on the beach
In Mendocino, Waikiki

They say I'm going nuts
But I will bring you back to life
I'll free you from the grave
And, darling, you will be my wife

You are my Daily
Mirror and my Son
You are my Colour
My Star, oh you're the one

I want to be your
Royal family
Why was the music
By Elton John, not me?

Fuck all the royalty
I'm in love with the Queen of Hearts
Fuck all the millionaires
I'm in love with the Queen of Hearts
Fuck all the journalists
I'm in love with the Queen of Hearts
Fuck all the rockstars
I'm in love with the Queen of Hearts

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.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“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.
