Evergreen

Will Young

Eyes, like a sunrise,
Like a rainfall down my soul.
And I wonder, I wonder why you look at me like that, what you're thinking, what's behind
Don't tell me but it feels, like, lo-o-ove.

I'm gonna take this moment
And make it last forever
I'm gonna give my, heart away
And pray we'll stay together
'Cause you're the one good reason
You're the only girl, that I need
'Cause you're more beautiful then I have ever seen,
Oh yeah
I'm gonna take this life and make it evergreen

Touched, like an angel
Like a velvet to my skin
And I wonder
I wonder why you want to stay the night
What you're thinking what's behind
Don't tell me but it feel
Li-I-ike lo-o-o-ove

I'm gonna take this moment
And make it last forever
I'm gonna give my, heart away
And pray we'll stay together
'Cause you're the one good reason
You're the only girl, that I need
'Cause you're more beautiful then I have ever seen,
Oh yeah
I'm gonna take this life and make it evergreen

We can make it last for evermore
Don't tell me but it feels like love
Oh

I'm gonna take this
Take this moment, make it last forever
I'm gonna give you my heart away
And pray we'll stay together
'Cause you're the one good reason
You're the only girl, that I need
'Cause you're more beautiful then I have ever seen,
Oh yeah
I'm gonna take this life and make it evergreen

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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,

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.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Album art
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.
