This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I wonder if you're alone up there
Since you've been gone, I've been alone down here
She told me that I would be OK
Now I don't believe, what she had to say
When she said don't worry, and you'll be fine
It's only a matter, a matter of time
As she sits back and finishes her wine
She prays to the lord I'll be fine
Now days have passed, and weeks have too
All I think about is how I miss you
She told me that I would be OK
But I feel the same that I felt that day
When she said don't worry, and you'll be fine
It's only a matter, a matter of time
As she sits back and finishes her wine
She prays to the lord I'll be fine
She prays to the lord I'll be fine
He don't know what he has done
Mother prays to the lord above
Lord please save my sons
He don't know what he has done
(The damage has been done to them)
She prays to the lord above
Lord please save my sons
She says don't worry, and you'll be fine
It's only a matter of time
She says don't worry, and you'll be fine
It's only a matter, a matter of time
As she sits back and finishes her wine
She prays to the lord I'll be fine
She prays to the lord I'll be fine
She says don't worry, and you'll be fine
It's only a matter of time
It's only a matter of time
Since you've been gone, I've been alone down here
She told me that I would be OK
Now I don't believe, what she had to say
When she said don't worry, and you'll be fine
It's only a matter, a matter of time
As she sits back and finishes her wine
She prays to the lord I'll be fine
Now days have passed, and weeks have too
All I think about is how I miss you
She told me that I would be OK
But I feel the same that I felt that day
When she said don't worry, and you'll be fine
It's only a matter, a matter of time
As she sits back and finishes her wine
She prays to the lord I'll be fine
She prays to the lord I'll be fine
He don't know what he has done
Mother prays to the lord above
Lord please save my sons
He don't know what he has done
(The damage has been done to them)
She prays to the lord above
Lord please save my sons
She says don't worry, and you'll be fine
It's only a matter of time
She says don't worry, and you'll be fine
It's only a matter, a matter of time
As she sits back and finishes her wine
She prays to the lord I'll be fine
She prays to the lord I'll be fine
She says don't worry, and you'll be fine
It's only a matter of time
It's only a matter of time

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."
Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
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,
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.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
I love this song and I think it just means that mothers do care while were out running theu're at home hoping they'll see us again.
anyone else think maybe this song pertains to death? the loss of a loved one.
i think this song is about his mom dying and he's singing about what she used to do and he's remembering her fondly and missing her.
call it what you want, but i actaully had tears when they played this song at the show.
I love Mest!!! But this song is just too f***ing slow, and the lyrics are crapp... sorry dudes.
This isnt sbout his mother dying. At the show, I think he said that its just for anyone who lost someone, not his own mom. He also dedicated it to one of his freinds who died in a car crash a few days before the show.
I think "Finch Rocks" is a little dense...I agree with fersheezy, and anyone else for that matter, who agrees that it pertains death, more specifically his mother dying. "Its only a matter, a matter of time" til he sees her again, I think. And to the person who said it's too slow and the lyrics sucks is gay. So is the guy with the name "Rufiosux"...he "sux"....
I just downloaded this song, its good, i think it does have to do with someone dieing.
wow, The1AndOnlyJanelle, did you just come in here to be an ass? The song can have a different meaning for different listeners. Don't judge people based on what they like, it's what they like. You don't have to, and you can also lay off. I think this song definitely pertains to the death of a loved one, particularly the lyricists mother, but it can apply to anyone who was loved and lost. It's wonderful lyrically and melodically, and while a lot of Mest is better fast, this song is accentuated by it's slow tempo. That's my opinion. Later.
Tony's mom did not die!!!
