Yeah like it or not.
Like a ball and a chain.
All I want to do is get off, I feel it for a minute babe.
Hot diggity dog, I love god all the same.
But all i wanna do is get off, I feel it, I feel it, I feel it babe.

Baby, come on yeah, If you have a hard time gettin' there, maybe you're gone.
If you find, you find yourself forget yourself.

Yeah maybe I fought.
One thought I was saved.
But all I wanna do is get off,
and feel it for a minute like the real thing baby, I guess.
I already forgot, what I thought I would say.
But all i wanna do is get off. I feel it, I feel it, I feel it babe.

Baby, come on yeah. If you have a hard time gettin' there, maybe you're gone.
If you find, you find yourself, forget yourself.
Hey, come on yeah. If you have a hard time gettin' there, maybe you're gone.
If you find, you find yourself forget yourself.

And like it or not, Like a ball and a chain.
All I wanna do is get off.
And feel it for a minute like the real thing baby, oh yes.
I already forgot, what I thought I would say.
But all I wanna do is get off, I feel it, I feel it, I feel it babe.

Baby, come on yeah. If you have a hard time gettin' there, maybe you're gone.
If you find, you find yourself, forget yourself.
Hey, Come on yeah, If you have a hard time gettin' there, maybe your gone.
If you find yourself, forget yourself. Hey!

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
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.

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,

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
