Fight fiercely, Harvard
Fight, fight, fight
Demonstrate to them our skill
Albeit they possess the might
Nonetheless we have the will
How we shall celebrate our victory
We shall invite the whole team up for tea
(How jolly)
Hurl that spheroid down the field, and
Fight, fight, fight
Fight fiercely, Harvard
Fight, fight, fight
Impress them with our prowess, do
Oh, fellows, do not let the crimson down
Be of stout heart and true
Come on, chaps, fight for Harvard's glorious name
Won't it be peachy if we win the game?
(Oh, goody)
Let's try not to injure them, but
Fight, fight, fight
(Let's not be rough, though)
Fight, fight, fight
(And do fight fiercely)
Fight, fight, fight

    My Opinion

    Speaking of Harvard, how would you feel in the event you generated a competition for the individual ready to get dirty. You take it a step further and determine that profits a charily you support. How would you feel if your goal was to get 300 individuals and ended up with a way different range? A couple of Harvard Business School Grads did just that. They designed this race and instead of obtaining the 300 contributors hoped for, they got over 4,500 people, each paying $90 to get involved in their endurance/adventure race, <a href="personalmoneystore.com/moneyblog/2010/04/29/tough-mudder-competition/">Tough Mudder</a>. The Tough Mudder Bear Creek is a 7 mile endurance race that has no champion, the winning is simply finishing the course and getting the right to call yourself a "Tough Mudder." You know, this is actually the type of event I would go take part in. The moment they bring a Tough Mudder course to my area, I will pay the entrance fee and enjoy the day within the mud!

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head &gt; Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
