If I've been acting just a little strange
And you have noticed it too
It's 'cause my life has been rearranged
With the presence of you

The sky is the limit now
We can hit it on the nail
And when we do
I'll think about you
How can we fail?

Can you give me one reason why
You'd ever let me down
I won't believe it baby, but I'll try
The truth's gonna come around

The sky is the limit now
We can hit it on the nail
And when we do
I'll think about you

The sky is the limit now
We can hit it on the nail
And when we do
I'll think about you
How can we fail?
The sky is the limit
Oh the sky is the limit
How can we fail?

Sooner or later
I'll keep the promise
I made to you
Sooner or later
It will be greater
Than we ever knew

The sky is the limit now
We can hit it on the nail
And when we do
I'll think about you
The sky is the limit now
We can hit it on the nail

And when we do
I'll think about you
How can we fail?
The sky is the limit
Oh the sky is the limit

How can we fail?
The sky is the limit
Oh, the sky is the limit
How can we fail?

The sky is the limit
Oh, the sky is the limit (the sky is the limit)
How can we fail?

The sky is the limit
Oh, the sky is the limit (the sky is the limit)
How can we fail?

The sky is the limit

    This song is bland by even Fleetwood Mac standards! Heh... I'm not sure why they include it on their Very Best Of CD, except maybe that they needed at least one song that came off the Behind the Mask album.

    This song was released when when nobody was listening to their new music, when people were virtually unaware that they were indeed still making new albums. From what I've read, Fleetwood Mac was just a pawn of their record company at this time and their members were replaced, bought and sold. Lindsey Buckingham was out of this song and album and I guess the band ever since the self-titled and Rumours albums just cannot be the same without him.

    Oh and "skies the limit" is poor grammar - and I don't think it's intentional. And yes this is the true title of the song. Was that a slip-up?

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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.

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.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
