Sweet dreams of rhythm and dancing
Sweet dreams of passion through the night
Sweet dreams are taking over
Sweet dreams of dancing through the night

I wanna get into motion, a better devotion
So I can make it through the night
So the music is playin', you know what I'm saying
Now everything will be alright

Sweet dreams of rhythm and dancing
Sweet dreams of passion through the night
Sweet dreams are taking over
Sweet dreams of dancing through the night

Ola, ola, eh
Ola, ola, eh
Ola, ola, eh
Ola, ola, eh

Rhythm is a creation, a better sensation
That will lead you through the night
When your body is movin', the music is groovin'
I want to take you home tonight

Sweet dreams of rhythm and dancing
Sweet dreams of passion through the night
Sweet dreams are taking over
Sweet dreams of dancing through the night

Ola, ola, eh
Ola, ola, eh
Ola, ola, eh
Ola, ola, eh

Keep dancin' hard, give this groove more feeling
Dance, trance, dance, more dealing
In, out, up, down, all around
On the dancefloor gettin' down
Take time just to show and prove
We can make your body move
Totally, yes, the party starter
Sweet dreams keep comin' harder

Sweet dreams of rhythm and dancing
Sweet dreams of passion through the night
Sweet dreams are taking over
Sweet dreams of dancing through the night

Sweet dreams of rhythm and dancing
Sweet dreams of passion through the night
Sweet dreams are taking over
Sweet dreams of dancing through the night

Ola, ola, eh
Ola, ola, eh
Ola, ola, eh
Ola, ola, eh
Ola, ola, eh

    Great song!!!! This song brings back so many memories!!! memories of when I was around 13!!! My brother used to always play this song!! He was obsessed with it. Great beat, melody and great words!!! To me it's about music/dancing mixed with romance, passion and desire!! The ecstasy of the music and love or lust mixed together!!! Great combination!!! hehe

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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,

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
