I tear the shrink wrap off
And put the needle down
Fill my bedroom up with a Cash song
And crank it up loud
Because it makes me feel good
Got the pedal pecked hard
And the Mustang drive
Horses screamin' at me
Momma prayin' that I'll make it home alive
But it makes me feel good
Like sneakin' out late
Tellin' white lies
Stealin' one more kiss tonight

I try my best to behave
And I can't help feelin' this way
It's not my fault so don't blame me
'Cause love makes me
And is it some kind of fiction?
Or the sweetest addiction?
So what if I'm crazy
'Cause love makes me do it
Love makes me do it
Yes it does

Well it don't take much
I'm a sucker for the little things
Like the touch on my hand
And the sweet way she leans into me
Yeah, it makes me feel good
Yeah, it's a buzz how much I'm into this
No I can't get enough
Gotta have more than just one kiss

'Cause it feels so good
Yeah, watchin' her sleep
Stayin' up all night
Ridin' this heavenly high
I try my best to behave
And I can't help feelin' this way
It's not my fault so don't blame me
'Cause love makes me
And is it some kind of fiction?
Or the sweetest addiction?
So what if I'm crazy
'Cause love makes me do it
Oh! Love makes me do it

I love so hard you think I'm stupid
But it's a fight that I don't mind losin'
I try my best to behave
And I can't help feelin' this way
It's not my fault so don't blame me
'Cause love makes me
And is it some kind of fiction?
Or the sweetest addiction?
So what if I'm crazy
'Cause love makes me do it
I try my best to behave
And I can't help feelin' this way
It's not my fault so don't blame me, don't blame me
And is it some kind of fiction?
Or the sweetest addiction?
So what if I'm crazy
'Cause love makes me do it

Bron-Y-Aur Stomp
Led Zeppelin
This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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.

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,

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
