(Ah, Erica Kane)
Erica Kane

She's back on the streets, a fee for the night
Fill you with grief, she cuts like a knife
Make you do things that no others could do
She turn a professor into a fool

Oh, she ain't hard to get, the girl gets around
Those that she met, they're destined to drown (to drown)
She'll make you change like you'd never believe
She turn a working man into a thief
Oh

She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica (Erica Kane)
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica (she's Erica Kane)
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica (Erica Kane)
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica (yo, yo)
She's Erica, Erica, Erica (she's Erica Kane)
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica
She's Erica, Erica, Erica (Erica Kane)

Oh, back on the block she's at it again
She'll be your friend as long as you spend
I know she's torn whole families apart
She'll shoot a poison arrow straight through your heart

Oh, this is the day for Erica Kane
There's nothing to lose, none for her to gain (none to gain)
She'll make a honest man steal from his folks
And drain a millionaire until he go broke, oh

She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica (Erica Kane)
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica (Erica Kane)
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica (Erica Kane)
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica (yo, yo) (hey, baby)
She's Erica, Erica, Erica (she's Erica Kane)
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica
She's Erica, Erica, Erica (Erica Kane)

She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica (ooh)
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica (she's Erica Kane)
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica (I wanna tell somebody)
(Erica Kane)
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica (yo, yo) (about Erica Kane)
She's Erica, Erica, Erica
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica (yeah, yeah)
She's Erica, Erica, Erica (Erica Kane) (oh, yeah)

I really don't think you should mess around
(I really wish that you wouldn't mess around)
'Cause all she'll do
(All that she can do is bring you down) oh, yeah
And there's nothing for you to gain
(There's nothing to gain)
And she goes by this name

She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica (yeah)
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica (Erica Kane)
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica (do you hear me? What I'm sayin'?)
(Erica Kane)
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica (yo, yo) (yeah)
She's Erica, Erica, Erica (she's Erica Kane)
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica
She's Erica, Erica, Erica (Erica Kane)

She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica (Erica Kane)
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica (yo, yo)
She's Erica, Erica, Erica
She's Erica, Erica, Erica, Erica
She's Erica, Erica, Erica (Erica Kane)

(Erica Kane)
(Erica Kane)

    I love this song! but yeah i do think its about the character Erica Kane on the soap "all my children"

    the character is very sudictive, persuasive, with only slef-success intentions...that it maybe Aaliyah liked the soap and wanted to sing about this famous lady/character

    "those that she met their distant to drown she'll make ya change like you like you never believe she turns a working man into thief"

    This song is talking about what what crack can do and that it does anything to anyone.Or it can talk about an addition.

    "and drain a million man until he go broke"

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,

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.
