Could you, stay long enough for me to say goodbye
You, can be free, as long as you're with me
If you, could see, the real me you'll bleed
If you, could see, the real me I'd breathe
Could you, still breathe, long enough for me
Could you, still be, long enough for me

When do you think I'll be okay?
When do you think I'll be okay?

If I should stay, when do I pray?
If I should stay, where do I begin?
Do you think I, should watch you die?
Should, we close our eyes and say goodbye

When do you think I'll be okay?
When do you think I'll be okay?
When do you think that I'll be okay?
When do you think I'll be o-kay?

Hey you miss blue
You think that I'm well to do
Hey you miss blue
I fell in love with you
Hey you miss blue
I think about you that's true
Hey you miss blue
I hate it when you cry
Hey you miss blue
I hate it when you say goodbye
Hey you miss blue
I hate it when you say goodbye

When do you think I'll be okay?
When do you think I'll be okay?
When do you think I'll be okay?
When do you think I'll be okay?

Hey you miss blue
You say goodbye
You say goodbye
Don't say goodbye
You say goodbye
Goodbye...
Goodbye...
Goodbye...

    Interesting. As a teenager, I thought it was about suicide. As an adult, I just thought it was about death in general. I haven't heard the D'Arcy idea before, but it would be interesting if it's true.

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,

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

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.
