This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
A dead issue (a dead issue)
Don't wrestle with it (don't wrestle with it)
Deaf ears are sleeping (deaf ears are sleeping)
A guilty bliss (a guilty bliss)
So inviting (let me in)
Nailed to the cross
I feel you, relate to you
Accuse you
Wash away us all
Take us with the floods
Then throughout the night
They were raped and executed (then throughout the night)
(They were raped and executed)
Cold hearted world
Your language unheard of (your language unheard of)
The vast sound of tuning out (the vast sound of tuning out)
The rash of negativity (the rash of negativity)
Is seen one sidedly (one sidedly)
Burn away the day
The nervous, the drifting
The heaving
Wash away us all
Take us with the floods
Then throughout the day
Mankind played with grenades (then throughout the day)
(Mankind played with grenades)
Cold hearted world
And at night
They might bait the pentagram (and at night)
(They might bait the pentagram)
Extinguishing the sun
Wash away man
Take him with the floods
Flood (flood)
Flood (flood)
Don't wrestle with it (don't wrestle with it)
Deaf ears are sleeping (deaf ears are sleeping)
A guilty bliss (a guilty bliss)
So inviting (let me in)
Nailed to the cross
I feel you, relate to you
Accuse you
Wash away us all
Take us with the floods
Then throughout the night
They were raped and executed (then throughout the night)
(They were raped and executed)
Cold hearted world
Your language unheard of (your language unheard of)
The vast sound of tuning out (the vast sound of tuning out)
The rash of negativity (the rash of negativity)
Is seen one sidedly (one sidedly)
Burn away the day
The nervous, the drifting
The heaving
Wash away us all
Take us with the floods
Then throughout the day
Mankind played with grenades (then throughout the day)
(Mankind played with grenades)
Cold hearted world
And at night
They might bait the pentagram (and at night)
(They might bait the pentagram)
Extinguishing the sun
Wash away man
Take him with the floods
Flood (flood)
Flood (flood)

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,
I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
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

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.
This is one of my favorite songs. It has a good vibe to it when you're listening to it. I like the outro solo. It's cool.
@Floods420 that fucking outro makes me cry, I don't care what anyone says that shit moves me and I know I cant hear more because he's dead RIP brother. I agree with you 100 ·/.
