Monday Monday Monday

Tegan and Sara

This week or last week
I don't really care about it anymore
I write myself this later
I tell myself you let me go
Without me
What's wrong with you?

Monday Monday Monday
Monday Monday Monday
Monday Monday Monday
Monday Monday Monday

Your house or mine
I don't really care about it anymore
I close my eyes
I, I make myself unhappy so you'll go
Without me
What's wrong with you

Monday Monday Monday
Monday Monday Monday
Monday Monday Monday
Monday Monday Monday

Oh, and I
I say damn your mood swings
Damn your mood swings
Oh, and I
I say damn your mood swings
Damn your mood swings
I'm calling out
I don't really care for your city anymore
I spend the night
I lay awake and miss you when you go
Without me
What's wrong with you

Monday Monday Monday
Monday Monday Monday
Monday Monday Monday
Monday Monday Monday

Oh, and I
I say damn your mood swings
Oh, and I
I say damn your mood swings
Damn your mood swings
Oh, and I
I say damn your mood swings
Damn your mood swings
Oh, and I
I say damn your mood swings
Damn your mood swings

    not sure where I heard about Tegan and Sara but I'm sure glad I did! This is the first song of theirs I ever heard and I was instantly hooked.

    I love this song. Reminds me of a situation I was in with a Monday lover, and I thought they were not that into me... I hear "I don't really care about it anymore I write myself this later I tell myself you let me go" as me. And the " oh, and I I say damn your moodswings damn your mood swings" as them... I like this song

    i play this song every monday. i absolutely adore the way that this song is planned. it's very stunning. my favorite part is when they repeat the last part and the drums pick up. i don't know why, but that just always sounds attractive to me. it never ceases to amaze me.

    I think this is about like...a friends with benefits kinda situation, where neither one of them know what they truly want from the "relationship", or don't know where it's gonna lead them.

    Those situations blow.

    yeah, what this means to ME...well...

    about being totally fed up with a relationship you're in, and being so tired of the girl's mood swings that you're just wanting to give up on it altogether, even though the narrator misses her when she's not around. she wonders why the girl doesn't try to change her ways...seems to me like she thinks the other girl's apathetic about it all, and wonders how she can just walk away like it's no big deal("without me/oh what's wrong with you?").

    also, the fact they use monday makes it seem to me like the girl's getting up for work/school and leaves without trying to make things right after they've had a fight the night before or a bad weekend or something... that weird silence as you watch someone getting ready for work/school, and they won't speak to you the whole time, and then they just pick up their car keys and leave without even saying goodbye.

    It could be about a fight between the two of them since they're sisters, and could possibly live together (or would have lived together at some point).

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."

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.

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.
