She’s from a small town somewhere upstate
I guess she’s somewhere between 19 and 38
She stays up all night she drives too fast
I say easy baby baby slow down
It’s never gonna happen
On Planet D’Rhonda

When we go out dancin’ she's always the star
When she does the Philly Dog I gotta have CPR
She put on a dress last night made of
Plastic wrap
It was off the hook crazy sweet
What everybody’s wearin’
On Planet D’ Rhonda

My friends say Jim – you’re on a deadly spree
They just can’t understand that D’s my
Vitamin XYZ
She’s always frantic now
She’s never calm
She’s not the type of girl
You wanna bring home to mom
But when you need big lovin’
She never stops
Yes it's Monkey Time twenty four –seven
Then of the planet:
Planet D’ Rhonda

My friends say Jim you’re on a deadly spree
They just can’t understand that D’s my
Vitamin XYZ

Sometimes she’s vicious sometimes rude
You got to be a mind reader just to guess
Her mood
But when you need big lovin’
She never stops
Yes it's Monkey Time twenty four –seven
Then of the planet:
Planet D’ Rhonda

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

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.

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.

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.
