This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Well, I just got back from a break in the fight
I was weighing in heavy but still feeling alright
All I hear in the distance, mines and shells
Here come the sirens wailing, another attack to be repelled
Do you think we're gonna make it?
I don't know unless we try
You could sit here scared to move, or we could take them by surprise
It's submission that they want
It's surrender that they need
When we're doing it their way their aims will be achieved
They're gonna come when you're not ready
When you're not too well-prepared
They're gonna prey upon your weakness, no man's soul is ever spared
You've got to stand up, yeah, and fight them
Show them what it's all about
This man is not for sale, there will be no backing down
Stand up and fight, and I'll stand up with you!
We shall succeed
Stand up and fight, and I'll stand up with you!
They won't get me, they won't get me
Though they never cease to try
They won't get me, they won't get me
I would rather fight and die
They won't get me, they won't get me
Well my friend, will they get you?
When they get you when they get you
You tell me, what are you gonna do?
Do you think we're gonna make it?
I don't know unless we try
You could sit here scared to move or we could take them by surprise
It's submission that they want
It's surrender that they need
When we're doing it their way their aims will be achieved
They're gonna come when you're not ready
When you're not too well-prepared
They're gonna prey upon your weakness, no man's soul is ever spared
You've got to stand up, yeah, and fight them
Show them what it's all about
This man is not for sale, there will be no backing down
Stand up and fight, and I'll stand up with you!
We shall succeed
Stand up and fight, and I'll stand up with you!
Stand up and fight, and I'll stand up with you!
We shall succeed
Stand up and fight, and I'll stand up with you!

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
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."

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,
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

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.
I find that a lot of the time, the Dropkicks Murpheys' lyrics don't have TOO much meaning unless all you like to do is get drunk and shout "oi!", but this song, it seems, is just plain about standing up for yourself. Against "the man" or anybody else
ZeeAap, you are retarded. a lot of their songs have meanings. first of all, they don't just get drunk and shout oi! ever hear Boys on the Docks? that has a meaning. it's about a man who was hero to the Irish immigrants. how about Curse of a Fallen Soul? This song is for anybody who has lost a friend to drugs, alchohol, etc. next time you think you want to comment on the best band ever, shut up!
Um
Dont say retarded
besides, you got the meaning wrong. it's about friendship and sticking together. notice the part: Stand up and fight and I'll stand up with you! We shall succeed Stand up and fight and I'll stand up with you!
heh.... you really shoved that back up his ass, psych. Dropkick Muprhys Rule!
hahaha i just love it when people look stupid after saying shit about someones music. i love this song its so damn encouraging, its what id like to call my "kick ass song" it gets me prepared for anything. hahaha im still laughing cus that kid got the stupid shit he said thrown back in his face:)
ZeeAp, you said the song is about standing up against the man, so obviously has meaning, the main porblem with dropkcik murphys is there songs are to repetitive, and the "oi" remark was racist, fag.
why is dropkick murphys so hard to type? I always end up doing something like dropkcik or muprhys. It's weird, because I am not one to do typos... ah, what the hell, it doesnt matter.
dropkick murphys sing lots of songs with meaning and you have to love bagpipes but Glowing, that fag remark isnt very cool, if someone has a different opinion than you it doesnt make them a fag i dont agree with Zeeap and i dont agree with you saying the songs are repetitive, but you dont see me calling names
this song is about warjust read:'all I hear in the distance mines and shells here come the sirens wailing another attack to be repelled do you think we're gonna make it? I don't know unless we try you could sit here scared to move or we could take them by surprise'. I just finished watching Black Hawk Down ten minutes ago so it makes sense to me. Dropkick Murpys rules, i just discovered them, this is the next cd im buyin. Hooray for Irish and Scots!!!! it's submission that they want it's surrender that they need when we're doing it their way their aims will be achieved
The song is about friendship, and standing up to fight with your friends. The greatest thing is having those firends you know'll back you up, andbeing able to stand up with them and fight for what you want. This is such an awesomesong.
