For a moment the world turns its back
And you let me come closer
Though the hearts were filled with fear
For this dark secret love

Oh let the world turn its back
And please let me come closer
Though the hearts filled with fear
For this love

Our 666 has got a name
We burn in its flames again and again
For it is our
Dark Secret Love

Set me as a seal upon thine heart,
As a seal upon thine arm,
For love is strong as death
Jealousy is cruel as the grave.
The coals thereof
Are coals of fire,
Which hath a most vehement flame.

I Love You - (I love you)
I Love You - (I love you)
I Love You - (I love you)

For a moment the world turns its back
And you let me come closer
Though the hearts touched with joy

Our 666 has got a name
We burn in its flames again and again
For it is our
Dark Secret Love

Our 666 has got a name
We burn in its flames again and again
For it is our
Dark Secret Love

    this song is amazing, but i think they deleted it.

    "set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm, for love is strong as death jealousy is cruel as the grave. the coals thereof are coals of fire, which hath a most vehement flame."

    • i love that part so much, AND if you did not know, that is a direct quote from the bible. like song of solomon chapter 8 i think.

    June Hyde's voice is so perfect for this song.. so so perfect. I adore the passion her and Ville both put into the lyrics. It makes the song all the more powerful... la la la.. anyone know who this woman is though???? ( June Hyde )

    What is ridiculous about it? It describes the style perfectly; stripped down hard and fast.

    Him are not a Hardcore band, they are "love-metal" {sniggers to himself}

Album art
Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
