You finally take your make up off, I like your eyes
You finally take your lipstick off, I like your smile

Get up and dance around the room my eyes are on you
Get up and dance around the room my eyes are on you

Chorus

I see you smile and turn your head
You lift your arms and grab the bed
I don't know what you're thinking now
I just hope you're feelin how, much love I have for you
Whoa whoa whoa

Your Spanish eyes are deep, I've fallen down
Your lips are so sweet, the night is perfect take off your dress
And get up and dance around the room a little more
We get up and dance around the room in love

Chorus

I see you smile and turn your head
You lift your arms and grab the bed
I don't know what you're thinking now
I just hope you're feelin how much love I have for you
Woah woah woah

Kiss

You taste like candy
You taste like a little piece of candy NOW THAT I MISS HER
When I first saw her, I knew that I loved her
When I said goodbye, I knew that I lost her
Now that I miss her, I wish I could kiss her
And tell her c'mon girl, you know that I need you

Chorus

And without her, it all feels the same
And without her, you got no one else to blame

I went to the movies and stared at the big screen
I thought that I saw her looking right at me

Chorus

And without her, it all feels the same
And without her, you got no one else to blame
But yourself, but yourself

And all I can do is just write a song about her
And hope that one day, hope that one day
She turns around, she turns around

I hear the phone ringing
I know that she's calling
I hear her voice singing
And this is her answer MISFIT
Picked a girl up at the trainstop where I live
Took a drive along the beach by the ocean
Talk about the dreams we had while we were growing old
Wrote a poem on the back of your shoulder

Chorus

Tell me your name, tell me your story
Cause I'm into it, runnin' through life like a misfit

I will start again

Give the dog a bone to chew as I drive around
Wrote this song last night while I was sober

Chorus

Tell me your name, tell me a story
Cause I'm into it, runnin' through life like a misfit

And I kept on driving
I will start again

Chorus

Tell me your name, tell me a story
Cause I'm into it, runnin' through life like a misfit BOKKIE
Jumping with your eyes closed, Landing on the sun
Being young and beautiful, In love with no one
But yourself

Chorus

And people tell you you're pretty yeah
Your smile drives them crazy lady
You want to slowly fade away, but you can't, So you stay

Playing for the public, Making them love you
You're so cruel

Chorus

And people tell you you're pretty yeah
Your smile drives them crazy lady
You want to slowly fade away, but you can't
So you stay with me, with me, Bokkie

I'm on an island for two

Chorus

And people tell tell you you're pretty yeah
Your smile drives them crazy lady
You want to slowly fade away, but you can't
So you stay with me TONIGHT LET'S DANCE
She was wearing her favorite dress
She was waving a blue handkerchief
She was laughing aloud in the corner of the room
But she was dancing alone

Chorus

So I walked up to her, grabbed her arms to show the world
Tonight we'll dance like we're in love

She was standing beneath the chandelier
I offered her chocolate and some beer
She said no, I said why, she said no, I said why
And stayed dancing alone

Chorus

So I walked up to her, grabbed her arms to show the world
Tonight we'll dance like we're in love

I look down on her
She looks up at me
All I want is all her love
All I want is all her love

Chorus

Tonight we'll dance
Tonight we'll dance
Tonight we'll dance
All night long like we were in love STATIC ON CHANNEL 4
Moon and stars above us shine
Everybody knows you're mine
Static on the channel 4
Television radio, hold me close when you are cold
Now I've got to get us home, everybody knows you're stoned

Chorus

And when you hear me calling
You will turn away and see me standing there
Waving my old colors, lifting up my arms
And you will understand

Kiss me on the lips again
Millions are just tuning in
satellites begin to spin
Listen close and let me in

Chorus

And when you hear me calling
You will turn around and see me standing there
Waving my old colors, lifting up my arms
And you will understand

You will understand SUNLIGHT MAKES ME FEEL PARANOID
The sunlight's making me feel paranoid
I look outside and see the world at war
The people walk to work like they're alone
I sit in silence staring at the phone

Chorus

And it helps me breathe, And it helps me see

I cover up my eyes to block the light
I cover up my eyes and try to fight, the fall

Chorus

And it helps, When I come down, And it helps

The sunlight's making me feel paranoid
I look outside and see the world at war
The people laugh and play like they're alone
They're watching us while we sleep in our homes
I never, I never meant to shut you out
All I know and all I need is you
I never, I never meant to cause alarm
All I know and all I need and all I got is gonna bleed

Chorus

It helps, when I come down, It helps, when I come down

It helps me breathe, When I come down
ANNIE
The smell of the ocean on her skin
The rags of her dress blowing in the wind
A chorus of angels on the boardwalk
They know what you did in the dark

Chorus

I never meant to hurt you Annie
Leave you standing with the gun
Come and play with me little Annie
Lose yourself, lose yourself

I lay her back on the cold sand
And wipe the blood from her hand
I fix her hair and kiss her chest
The secrets die in her breathe

Chorus

I never meant to hurt you Annie
Leave you standing with the gun
Come and play with me little Annie
Lose yourself, lose yourself

Oh no, her hands are cold
Oh no, I played with her soul
All night again
I'm alone LOVE
I want the girl all dressed in white
She turns and says hello
She changes colors like a bird
I grab her wings and fly away
She takes me high and leaves me there
I never want that down

Chorus

Love, It's a beautiful place, It's a beautiful taste
Where I am now, where I am now, And I belong

The gentle high is all to blame
I cried for seven days
I feel myself losing control
To all the voices in my soul
There is the girl in white again
I need the sugar from her hand

Chorus

Love, It's a beautiful place, It's a beautiful taste
Where I am now, where I am now, And I belong

And it's such a wonderful way, We're making love right now
And it's such a wonderful way, you feel me up inside

Chorus

Love, It's a beautiful place, It's a beautiful taste
Where I am now, where I am now, And I belong ESTER
Ester why do you look all blue
What did I say to you to make you feel all blue
Ester when you walk in the room
everybody turns to look at you

Chorus

And that night when I called you
I was being young
And the way I tried to win you
I was being young, I was being young

Ester why can't you talk to me
Why can't you look at me
Why can't sit with me
Ester with your lips all full
With your heart all full, is there room for two

Chorus

And that night when I called you
I was being young
And the way I tried to win you
I was being young, I was being young

This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io

Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

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,

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
