Happy Without You

Annie

Without you, yeah
Come on

It took a long time
But I'm back again for good
It really hurt me
But now I finally understood
The day I left you
Must be the greatest in my life
I hear without you
There's only peace around, no fight
I tried so hard to
Oh doing everything I could
Manipulated
Made to think I was no good
In your possession
Every day was a bad dream
So naive then
Well I was young and sixteen

Oh
He was my honey
He was my honey
Happy without no honey

Oh
He was my honey
He was my honey
Happy without you honey

Funny how things change, yeah?
Yesterday would all be a lie
I told you
Now it's all good

I'm feeling down
It took a time
It took a time for me to heal for what
I thought was love
But I was wrong
Blinded by your flashy love
When I was weak
And you were there
Well it was obvious you did not care
About the one
No you don't bother
Well I'm happy without you, honey

Oh yeah they told me
You should be careful what you do
They only use you
For his pleasures and absurd
The love I gave you
It was the last that you deserved
Call us a nice time
To own somebody, that's absurd

Oh
He was my honey
He was my honey
Happy without no honey (Happy without you honey)

Oh
He was my honey
He was my honey
Happy without you honey (Oh oh oh, Happy without you)

Oh
He was my honey
He was my honey
Happy without no honey

Happy without you
I'm happy without you
I'm happy without you, boy

    (chorus) Oh... he was my honey he was my honey happy without no honey

    I thought the chorus went "He was my heartache". It's a 'I'm hurting, but I'm getting over you and I'm better off without you' song.

    Anybody else think Annie wasn't nearly as big in the UK as she deserved to be?

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
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.

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."

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.

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.
