This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
Lookin' out in the crowd I see a lot of hotties,
Tell me which of you will be my mommy?
Don't be shy, come over put it on me,
Park it up and pass it all around me
We got drinks, anything, and food out for the starving,
Thank you all for coming to my party.
Don't be shy mix it up come and lay it on me
Oh, oh, oh, oooh!
Pick up the phone to solid gold,
Making the hits we get the story told.
We all got a heavy load,
But it won't get us down, no no no no.
Everybody got a Dj night,
Rocking the chance for all their friends to climb,
When it comes to closing time,
Who you gonna crush with a drunken dial?
Hey! What?
Who got a DUI out there?
Yeah.
I know you all do 'cause',
That's dialling under the influence!
When you come home at night,
And you had a little too much to drink,
This is one thing,
We all guilty!
Sittin' alone in my room at home,
Girl come on pick up the phone,
Keep the spot next to ya warm,
I know I got my own ringtone.
I made 'bout a million DUI's,
That's how I always win the prize.
All the times I get to night,
There's a hot little baby by my side.
D! Is the dial your fingers dance.
Give it to me!
You! Under the spell of romance,
Can you let me get
I! Is the dangerous influence,
I feel it!
Aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!
I'm the lonely man,
With a roaming climb.
I'm resisting the urge and turning on the telly,
Baby don't you have something to tell me?
It's 4 AM my brain has turned to jelly,
Come on baby hope you got the semi,
How long is this dong girl this cannot be healthy,
I'm so wet I have to get my wellies,
Whenever you're near you never get this filthy,
It's because I'm greeting and your wealthy.
Tip on the cotton candy bus,
I win a soft tiger just for us.
These are the broken promices,
That I won't recall when the sun comes up.
Everybody got a Dj night,
Rocking the chance for all their friends to climb,
When it comes to closing time,
Who you gonna crush with a drunken dial?
I see it!
Tell me which of you will be my mommy?
Don't be shy, come over put it on me,
Park it up and pass it all around me
We got drinks, anything, and food out for the starving,
Thank you all for coming to my party.
Don't be shy mix it up come and lay it on me
Oh, oh, oh, oooh!
Pick up the phone to solid gold,
Making the hits we get the story told.

But it won't get us down, no no no no.

Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Holiday
Bee Gees
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.
I Can't Go To Sleep

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.
