taste leaves, lay low. but it's the dirt you want, a grinning mouth of mud

spectators come, the profane will watch, and in a claque for show, put me in the show

if i hope we're done, then can i get home, but it's the closing night, meaning party time

watch us drink to all, it'll keep me involved, it could turn out worse, when you've had enough

sticking still sitting you'll never come away with the thing that you hope, to safely know

and when you're about to leave that state, take your meal and go, give me mouth to mouth,

i ran away with gold, that i knew you'd take, and it's so hard to be that good, i can't behave with this one,

i came from the front, sit in the back and wait, for it to turn out worse, and then they half it up.

we kept on, and it took the soul from us, and this is how we go

one more, is an attempt to force, show up, learn to drink alone

the proof's awake, suddenly the rest are shapes, they're barely ignored

why not, if that's the girl, but still i know that i undersold

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
