its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
She's a different kind of girl
The kind you see in pictures
I think you might have seen her
Richards on Richards
You know what I mean
You know what I mean
You know what I mean mean
Richards
She doesn’t ride a motor bike
She says it doesn't fit her
But she always wears a monocle
Richards on Richards
You know what I mean
You know what I mean
You know what I mean mean
Richards
Look over there
Check out her hair
She's really on an ego trip
(Spoken) Oh! Look at her!
You know what I mean
You know what I mean
You know what I mean mean
Richards
The kind you see in pictures
I think you might have seen her
Richards on Richards
You know what I mean
You know what I mean
You know what I mean mean
Richards
She doesn’t ride a motor bike
She says it doesn't fit her
But she always wears a monocle
Richards on Richards
You know what I mean
You know what I mean
You know what I mean mean
Richards
Look over there
Check out her hair
She's really on an ego trip
(Spoken) Oh! Look at her!
You know what I mean
You know what I mean
You know what I mean mean
Richards

The way this song speaks to me🥺🥺when I sing it I feel like I relate
Light Up The Sky
Van Halen

The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
Holiday

@[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 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.
Without a doubt, the best Venue Song. This could be a stand alone single if they wanted it to be
