its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
It comes and it kills
Cruising the earth
Attacking your towns
As you watch from outside
And no one felt crashes in your hearts
There's another way
Any other one couldn't stop the fingers from freezing
Until you're driven half awake
All you ever want
Safe inside the covers and freezing
Alive?
And no one felt anything at all
Protecting ourselves
As you watch from outside
And everyone's thrill
It crashes in you heart
There's another way
Any other one couldn't stop the fingers from freezing
Until you're driven half awake
All you ever want
Safe inside the covers and freezing
Drove so far away
No one would ever stop
Couldn't tell the difference between them
And then you struggle under quake
Hope you never stop
Hope you never finish breathing
How does it feel to clip the patient on the wing feather?
Where does the pain stop and the tearing trough begin, if ever?
Temperature lock down, way consumed
Froze in a block with a blazing view
Tazing the numbers
One through two
Fit in the standard size
Without
Cruising the earth
Attacking your towns
As you watch from outside
And no one felt crashes in your hearts
There's another way
Any other one couldn't stop the fingers from freezing
Until you're driven half awake
All you ever want
Safe inside the covers and freezing
Alive?
And no one felt anything at all
Protecting ourselves
As you watch from outside
And everyone's thrill
It crashes in you heart
There's another way
Any other one couldn't stop the fingers from freezing
Until you're driven half awake
All you ever want
Safe inside the covers and freezing
Drove so far away
No one would ever stop
Couldn't tell the difference between them
And then you struggle under quake
Hope you never stop
Hope you never finish breathing
How does it feel to clip the patient on the wing feather?
Where does the pain stop and the tearing trough begin, if ever?
Temperature lock down, way consumed
Froze in a block with a blazing view
Tazing the numbers
One through two
Fit in the standard size
Without

Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.
Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.
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.
fucking love this song. :)
@abodyofenglish Me fucking to.
