Non rien en effet n'est pour moi de plus précieux
Que de me rendre le meilleur que je pourrais
Voyant l'attention qu'il portait ma beauté
Je crus que c'était pour moi une aubaine

De cette fleur de ma beauté je me faisais certes
Une idée prodigieusement avantageuse
Ainsi il est question de la passion d'amour
De sa nature, ses vertus, ses détours

Le beau c'est la splendeur du vrai, oh yeah!
Le beau c'est la splendeur du vrai, oh ouais

Il est vrai que ses pieds sont tellement délicats
Car ce n'est pas sur la terre qu'elle avance
A mi-chemin de la folie de la sagesse
Elle chemine sur la tête des hommes

    translation: no, in fact nothing is more precious to me tan to make myself the best I can be seeing the attention he paid to my beauty I thought it was a godsend for me

    I surely made of this flower of my beauty a tremendously advantageous idea thus it is a matter of love's passion its nature, its virtues, its twists and turns

    beauty is the splendour of truth, oh yeah! beauty is the splendour of truth, oh yeah

    it's true that its feet are so delicate as it is not on earth that it moves halfway between madness and wisdom it walks on the heads of men

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.

Punchline
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.

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.
