In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
My baby's so fresh and he can do no wrong
He tells me im the best and tells the haters be gone
If you don't already know let me put you on
My baby's so fresh and he can do no wrong
There ain't no doubt about it my baby can do no wrong
They think I'm mad about it I'm not I just play along
Say what you want to I'm convinced that he can do no wrong
I stop the world and tell them my baby can do no wrong
[Chorus]
Lookin' at us everywhere we go
People starin' like can they roll
How we do it they just don't know
I can tell they'll never get it
Lookin at him he's so Sincere
Whisperin' nothin's up in my ear
They tell me leave him but I don't care
My baby can do no wrong
Tell the operator there's a problem, problem, problem
They say my baby's lying I ain't caught'em, caught'em, caught'em
Cause nothing in this world could
Nothing that I heard should
Change the way I feel because I got him, got him, got him [Repeat: x 2]
People they talk because their jealous of how tight we are
They see us everywhere we ride a round in fancy cars
Say what you want to cause I don't believe em', believe em'
Cause sometimes love don't have a rhyme or reason, reason
I know they think its madness and they think that I should leave
Cause every time I see his smile he puts my heart at ease
So when they try to give advice and tell me what to do
Just keep on talkin' now that I ain't even hearing you
[Chorus]
Tell the operator there's a problem, problem, problem
They say my baby's lying I ain't caught'em, caught'em, caught'em
Cause nothing in this world could
Nothing that I heard should
Change the way I feel because I got him, got him, got him [Repeat: x 2]
Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey
Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey

Tell the operator there's a problem, problem, problem
They say my baby's lying I ain't caught'em, caught'em, caught'em
Cause nothing in this world could
Nothing that I heard should
Change the way I feel because I got him, got him, got him
He tells me im the best and tells the haters be gone
If you don't already know let me put you on
My baby's so fresh and he can do no wrong

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
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"
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
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."

He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
