@[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.
And I know
Standing again on my own two feet
This striking resemblance is hard to beat
On the cover of 17
Everything you ever wanted to be
And we are
Driving fast in our brand new cars
Cheating death with every turn
On the cover of 17
Everything you ever wanted to be
My dear I’m
Afraid it is my time to go
Exiting through your window
But don’t cry
This isn’t the last time I will get to say I love you
Because you know I do and you know I do and you know I do
And we sing our favorite songs
Out of tune while we get the words wrong
And we sing our favorite songs
Out of tune while we get the words wrong
It’s perfect
To see the sunset in it’s entirety
And see what villains we can be
Alive and well on our own park swing
(1-2-3-Entertain 1-2-3-Entertain)
To see the sunset in it’s entirety
Alive and well in the harsh city
Run away to the open country
(1-2-3-Entertain 1-2-3-Entertain)
(Check Check and I’ll say it again, Check Check and I’ll say it again)

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

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.
this was like the first song I listen to by them. Back when music was still on the playradioplay! website.
i love this song. i love how it feels like he's whispering in your ear. ahh. daniel hunter is a genius. does anyone know where i can get his songs? his full length isn't out.. and this isn't on his ep. and limemire isn't an option. i wish his songs were still on his website. hm.
if you search playradioplay on music.myspace.com you can find all these old songs. i think it's because myspace now searches all song titles when you search an artist. i didn't have some of these rarer songs before but i've tracked down a lot and still going.
