These streets they are so cold
I've been freezing here for days
I've been longing for your company
Like the sun you've cast astray
Well it's lonely in these bones
There's no feeling in this face
If you look into my eyes my dear there's no hope for saving grace

Oh is it lonely where you are tonight?
Oh is it lonely for you?

So every night I shout at the moon, shout at the moon
I'm walking with a stranger chasing shadows in my room
Yeah every night I shout at the moon, shout at the moon
I'm holding on to questions I don't know the answers to
And now hold on to me if you love me
Do you love me?
'Cause every night I shout at the moon, shout at the moon

So we'd wander on our own
Chase the night and seize the day
Waste no time for insecurity in the life that creates
So I thought you wouldn't have me any other way
But that didn't seem to be okay
So you walked out, out of everything we had and I find myself alone

So every night I shout at the moon, shout at the moon
I'm walking with a stranger chasing shadows in my room
Yeah every night I shout at the moon, shout at the moon
I'm holding on to questions I don't know the answers to
And now hold on to me if you love me
Do you love me?
So every night I shout at the moon, shout at the moon, woah

Oh

Every night I shout at the moon, shout at the moon
'Cause every night I hold on to you, hold on to you
And now hold on to me if you love me
Do you love me?
'Cause every night I shout at the moon, shout at the moon
(Shout at the moon, shout at the moon)
'Cause every night I shout at the moon, shout at the moon
(Shout at the moon, shout at the moon)
Yeah every night I shout at the moon, shout at the moon
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh

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."

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,
