The sun shone in, the glint in your eye
Your beautiful face, your beautiful face
I held her tight, close to my heart
I didn't know it would break, I didn't know it would break

I don't believe there's love anymore, it's all inside
We always said it's forever in this beautiful life
And I'll try not to feel this music's for you and over, and over, and over
And I'll try not to feel this music's for you and over, and over, and over

I held her tight, close to my heart
I didn't know it would break, I didn't know it would break
I don't believe there's love anymore, it's all inside
We always said it's forever in this beautiful life
And I'll try not to feel this music's for you and over, and over, and over
And I'll try not to feel this music's for you and over, and over, and over

And over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over,
and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over,
and over, and over, and over...
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright!

    Great Song, but i think the lyric is 'And i'll try not to feel the music's for you. Like when you listen to a song and you think about someone and you don't want to be cos your trying to get over them. That and 'I dont believe in love anymore' are great and so real. More people should like Biffy Clyro.

    I've not been in love... but this song kinda makes me think of how a lot of songs made me think of my ex boyfriend coz they were all about how girls broke their heart,etc etc and for a while I couldnt listen to some songs coz I could just hear him saying that sort of stuff and it pissed me off.. so i tried not to think the songs related to him. Not really the same, but its what i think of

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."

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.
