its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
How'd I arrive in a place like this?
Red right hand as the alligator kiss.
My head is turns white
And my face is green
But my feet are still moving if you know what I mean
Satan, Satan, Satan
Satan, Satan, Satan
Satan, Satan, Satan
SAID DANCE!
Let's go.
He says to me to shake around
And don't stop until you hit the the ground
And I know it is not how you thought it would be
No whips, no chains, just dancing dancing dancing dancing dancing dancing dancing dancing dancing dancing dancing dancing dancing...
Satan, Satan, Satan
Satan, Satan, Satan
Satan, Satan, Satan
SAID DANCE!
Satan, Satan, Satan
Satan, Satan, Satan
Satan, Satan, Satan
SAID DANCE!
Satan, Satan, Satan
Satan, Satan, Satan
Satan, Satan, Satan
SAID DANCE!
Alright.
Red right hand as the alligator kiss.
My head is turns white
And my face is green
But my feet are still moving if you know what I mean
Satan, Satan, Satan
Satan, Satan, Satan
Satan, Satan, Satan
SAID DANCE!
Let's go.
He says to me to shake around
And don't stop until you hit the the ground
And I know it is not how you thought it would be
No whips, no chains, just dancing dancing dancing dancing dancing dancing dancing dancing dancing dancing dancing dancing dancing...
Satan, Satan, Satan
Satan, Satan, Satan
Satan, Satan, Satan
SAID DANCE!
Satan, Satan, Satan
Satan, Satan, Satan
Satan, Satan, Satan
SAID DANCE!
Satan, Satan, Satan
Satan, Satan, Satan

He certainly did earn that reputation.
Fortnight
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
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.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
To me this song feels more like a song about continuing on no matter what happens. Even in the busiest of moments, or the craziest days you must continue, and do what you have to do. It's a great song for those frazzled moments.
