Of all the things
I wonder the most
The most often thing i have heard
is wether it's best
To say what you mean
Or mean what you say you have heard
So up with the lids kids
To see what is said
You've got to be listening first
By minding you mind you'll find
Timing your time is
Your mostly likely meaningless search
For what have you heard
That you can say
That you can know
What have you seen
That you can keep
That you can own
Dethroned at the base
And held back to back
But called out to face
And looing away
Forms the context of space
Like the very first day
And all those that know
Are all those that say
All has been said
But how can one know
The word of a day
That has never began
What you have heard outside
Thought that you might have known
Shown are the countless ways that
You have been outgrown by all the
Seeds you planted ages ago
Many times you
Sat there and wished
That they would grow
Pity they've grown
Right throught your skin and
Into the bone
Alone you await
The messengers voice
To be carried and shown
But now you have heard
The word can't be known
And you've just begun
I wonder the most
The most often thing i have heard
is wether it's best
To say what you mean
Or mean what you say you have heard
So up with the lids kids
To see what is said
You've got to be listening first
By minding you mind you'll find
Timing your time is
Your mostly likely meaningless search
For what have you heard
That you can say
That you can know
What have you seen
That you can keep
That you can own
Dethroned at the base
And held back to back
But called out to face
And looing away
Forms the context of space
Like the very first day
And all those that know
Are all those that say
All has been said
But how can one know
The word of a day
That has never began
What you have heard outside
Thought that you might have known
Shown are the countless ways that
You have been outgrown by all the
Seeds you planted ages ago
Many times you
Sat there and wished
That they would grow
Pity they've grown
Right throught your skin and
Into the bone
Alone you await
The messengers voice
To be carried and shown
But now you have heard
The word can't be known
And you've just begun

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."

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,
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.

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.
