So Far

Buckcherry

I'll tell you how the story's told
Come on
Oh

I'll tell you how the story's told
I always wanted so much more
And way on down the road I caught a glimpse of the sunlight
Working on my favorite thing
Using every piece of me
Drinking, and smoking, and fucking, and making nothing

I didn't do it for money, I did it all for free
I did it all to fill the fucking hole inside of me

So far it's working out, everything's different now
So far na...

Think about what you know
Forget about what you're told
See how your story grows, and let it come from your own mind
Do all your favorite things
Cover it with all your dreams
Breathe it, and smoke it, and fuck it, and make it something

I didn't do it for money, I did it all for free
I did it all to fill the fucking hole inside of me

So far it's working out, everything's different now
So far na...
So far the mean machine hasn't got the best of me
So far na...

I'll tell you how the story's told
I always wanted so much more
And way on down the road I caught a glimpse of the sunlight

I didn't do it for money, I did it all for free
I did it all to fill the fucking hold inside of me

So far it's working out, everything's different now
So far na...
So far the mean machine hasn't got the best of me
So far na...
Na...

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.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
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.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Just A Little Lovin'
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/
