Wish We Never Met

Kathleen Wilhoite

Disapointment stops by from time to time
To see how im doing
And he came by last night
Right after you left
My life in ruin

When I dont get what I want
The spoiled child inside breaks down
Kickin, screamin, prayin and dreamin
For a love lost and found

Well I wish we never
Wish we never
Wish we never met
Cuz now I've got my heart set on you

Humiliation asked me out last night
I had nothing else to loose
So it took good kept two loopy drunk had conversations
I couldnt get through
Another strangers eyes
Were trying desperatly to meet mine
But I look away tabs to pay lines to say
Like "how are you" "im doing fine"

Ohh but I wish we never
Wish we never
Wish we never met
Cuz now ive got my heart set
I wish we never
Wish we never
Wish we never met
Cuz now ive got my heart set on you

And I dont get what I want
From another strangers eyes
No and I dont get what I want
From another strangers eyes

I wish we never
I wish we never
Wish we never met
Cuz now ive got my heart set on you

I'm set on you

    An incredible song… It’s a shame it’s not well known. I heard it on Buffy and googled it afterward. Kathleen Wilhoite played Luke’s sister on Gilmore Girls, she has a great voice. This song is heart breaking… I can totally relate to what she’s singing… not a nice feeling… but still an awesome song

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.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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,

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.
