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.
Hehehehe
(dogs barking)
Start things with another yawn
Once again we start the day
Gotta go out and get the time just gotta find somethin'
To do.
Dana na na nara na
Don't know what I should do but I just want to get away.
Data ta ta ra ta tata tata tara
Let's go outside
(dogs barking)
Start things with another yawn
Once again we start the day
Gotta go out and get the time just gotta find somethin'
To do.
Dana na na nara na
Don't know what I should do but I just want to get away.
Data ta ta ra ta tata tata tara
Let's go outside

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
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."

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
Magical
Ed Sheeran
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.
These lyrics are pretty difficult to decipher. After repeated listens on high volume I managed to make out these. If anyone has additional lyrics or corrections let me know in a comment.
To get to the song: the playful glockenspeil at the beginning should tell you everything you need to know. This is about childhood innocence, running around playing and just finding things to do with no plan or schedule. A very uplifting tune.
very uplifting indeed.
I believe it's "Once again it's nothing new", not "Once again we start the day". :)
Yeah you are right, I hear that now. Thanks.
man i love listening to him when i'm stoned, if you ever want an awesome experience get the manitoba dvd and watch that...it is absolutely insane
i kinda doubt the childhood innocence theme. sure the song is upbeat and playful but the lyrics dont match the tune. i get the vibe that the speaker is living a boring life and just wants to get the fuck out. i believe that the uplifting tune represents the force driving him to get out there and find himself or whatever it is hes looking for
mtamney has it right. at the end you have things crashing and a dog barking, it sounds like a fight. dishes being thrown and lots of anger. This is not really a happy song.
My best friend send me this song to cheer me up. And no, the lyrics aren't happy, but it's a really upbeat tune...
The video for this song is amazing. Go to youtube and watch it right now and do yourself a favor.
this song is far greater than anyone moaning about a boring life. atleast it seems to me so. it's like.. you can draw your life anew every day with your favourite crayon. the colors just tend fade away but there's still beauty in it.
