Ah freak out
Freak out

Have you heard about the new dance craze
Listen to us, I'm sure you'll be amazed
It's called Le Freak
They're doing it night and day
Allow us, we'll show you the way

Ah freak out

Everybody dance, do do do
Clap your hands, clap your hands

Good times, these are the good times
Leave your cares behind, these are the good times
Good times, these are the good times
Our new state of mind, these are the good times

Good times, these are the good times
Leave your cares behind, these are the good times

Ah freak out
Le freak, c'est chic

Le freak, c'est chic

Ah freak out

Do you feel like you ever want
To try my love and see how well it fits
Baby can't you see, when you look at me
I can't kick this feelin' when it hits
All alone in my bed at night
I grab my pillow and squeeze it tight
I think of you and I dream of you all the time
What am I gonna do

I want your love, I want your love
I want your love, I want your love

I want your love, I want your love
I want your love, I want your love

Ah freak out
I want your love, I want your love
Freak out
Ah freak out
I want your love, I want your love
Freak out
Ah freak out
I want your love, I want your love
Ah freak out
I want your love, I want your love
Freak out

Le Freak

I set it free

Le Freak

I set it free

Le Freak

All that pressure got you down
Has your head spinning all around
Feel the rhythm, check the ride
Come on along and have a real good time
Like the days of stomping at the Savoy
Now we freak, oh what a joy
Just come on down, two fifty four
Find a spot out on the floor

Ah freak out
Le freak, c'est chic
Freak out
Ah freak out
Le freak, c'est chic
Freak out
Ah freak out
Le freak, c'est chic
Freak out
Ah freak out
Le freak, c'est chic

Le freak, c'est chic
Freak out
Ah freak out

I want your love, I want your love
Freak out
Ah freak out
I want your love, I want your love
Freak out
Ah freak out
I want your love, I want your love
Freak out
Ah freak out

    I heard an interview where Nile Rodgers said it got written as a result of not getting into Studio 54. Originally the lyrics weren't 'Aaah Freak Out', but 'Oooh F*$^ Off', which related to the door policy. Once they decided the song was funky, they realised they were going to have to change the words.

    Dullthud is right about the meaning. As for my personal opinion, this has to be one of the ULTIMATE disco songs, right up there at the top with the Bee Gees' "Stayin' Alive."

    It makes sense since the bottom line of the song wants to make the dance floor universal and drag away the wannabe poshness clientele in Studio 54.

    "Big fun, to be had by everyone It's up to you, it surely can be done Young and old are doing it, I'm told "

    To review as well Amanda Lear's "Fashion pack (Studio 54)"

    Nearly every lyrics website lists the lyric as "Like the days of stopping at the Savoy," but it most surely is "Stompin' at the Savoy" -- a reference to both the song of that name, as well as the Savoy Ballroom.

    The Savoy Ballroom was one of the leading nightclubs in Harlem during the jazz era, along with the Roseland Ballroom and the Cotton Club, and unlike many of its competitors, was not segregated.

    And I also heard the same origin story as Dulthud.

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"

Mountain Song
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."

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.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.

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.
