This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
You ever heard the story
Of Mr. Faded Glory?
Say he who rides a pony must someday fall
I been talkin' to my alter
Says life is what you make it
And if you make it death well then rest
Your soul away
Away away yeah
It's a broken kind of feeling
She'd have to tie me to the ceiling
A bad moon's a comin'
Better say your prayers
I wanna tell you that I love you
But does it really matter?
I just can't stand to see you dragging down.
Again, again, again.
So I'm singing
This is my kinda love
It's the kind that moves on
It's the kind that leaves you alone
This is my kinda love
It's the kind that moves on
It's the kind and leaves me alone
I used to treat you like a lady
Now you're a substitute teacher
This bottle's not a prayer, not a prayer in sight
I owe the man some money
So I'm turnin over honey
Oh Mr. Faded Glory is once again doin' time.
This is my kinda love
It's the kind that moves on
It's the kind that leaves me alone
This is my kinda love
It's a crown of thorns
It's the kind that
It's the kind that leaves me alone
Like a crown of thorns
It's all who you know.
So don't burn your bridges cause
Someday, yeah
Start singing
This is my kinda love
It's the kind that moves on
It's the kind that leaves me alone
This is my kinda love
It's a crown of thorns
It's the kind that leaves me alone
Of Mr. Faded Glory?
Say he who rides a pony must someday fall
I been talkin' to my alter
Says life is what you make it
And if you make it death well then rest
Your soul away
Away away yeah
It's a broken kind of feeling
She'd have to tie me to the ceiling
A bad moon's a comin'
Better say your prayers
I wanna tell you that I love you
But does it really matter?
I just can't stand to see you dragging down.
Again, again, again.
So I'm singing
This is my kinda love
It's the kind that moves on
It's the kind that leaves you alone
This is my kinda love
It's the kind that moves on
It's the kind and leaves me alone
I used to treat you like a lady
Now you're a substitute teacher
This bottle's not a prayer, not a prayer in sight
I owe the man some money
So I'm turnin over honey
Oh Mr. Faded Glory is once again doin' time.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
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 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.
andy's death is both a good thing and a bad thing...before you kill me for saying its a good thing just hear me out. its a bad thing cause first of all death is a bad and sad thing. also its bad cause MLB is, or, was a kick ass band...but if andy didnt die...we would have no pearl jam. no betterman no nothing man, no even flow, no nothing that even resembles pearl jam except for the members. but who knows maybe MLB would of turned out to be a better band than pearl jam
Even if wood dint die i'm sure eddie would of had a band probly based back in LA were he came from
MLB would have far succeeded Pearl Jam, Andy dying was a tremendous blow for the Seattle music scene and people from here still miss him
ahat1321, you're the idiot... At least grungekid is actually using this site properly... And this song is actually by Mother Love Bone but Pearl Jam cover it a lot, of course, coz it's an awesome song but better with the Chloe Dancer bit at the beginning... Go kill a cat ahat1321...
This song's by Mother Love Bone. Not Pearl Jam.
Tis true but PJ does cover this song
the cover is probably a result of the connection from mother love bone to pearl jam (and temple of the Dog) all great music to look into
Pearl Jam IS Mother Love Bone, minus Andrew Wood... more of a transformation than a connection, in my opinion.
we will never now how big this song would have been if andy didnt die. But to me its proof that he (or MLB) had a lot of potential as a songwriter.
ill say it, im happy andrew wood died, as insensitive as it sounds, i like mlb but eddie is my idol and he could still be pumping gas if andy didnt die
Your dumb as shit. Andy was the man and although Pearl Jam may be good, eddie should still be pumping gas...... Andy wasn't an arrogant prick
there's no way mother love bone would have been better than pearl jam, that being said, if he didn't die, who knows, maybe mike mcready and eddie form kickass bands of their own. I mean, mcready's side project Mad Season was unbelievable and that was just a side project. Furthermore, MLB wouldn't have lasted very long probably anyway, which would have allowed stone and jeff to do other things which could have been great as well
Your frickin high if you really believe what you are saying.....
I always took the song to mean a guy who has a fast life style and because of it has to go to jail and thus has to end it with chloe. He loves her but feels uncomfortable in committed relationships so he's cool with the whole thing.
