Rain

The Red Paintings

Why does sun shine cross the ocean.....
These tragedies
Some can always think without the next time .....

They're so naive
Your uniform doesn't impress me
Mass manipulation
When how why will we win
Must survive
Old clocks ..... just an illusion of time

She just feels so sad
She can't even get up from the floor
Forgotten children
Coming to steal their innocence

Cos they're so naive
Your uniform doesn't impress me
Mass manipulation
When how why will we win
Must survive
Old clocks ..... just an illusion of time

Once again it's happened to me now
Once again it's happened to me now

What if we never see each other again
The holy ghost, the holy ghost (Repeat Section)

What if this is all just the end of the world?
When do we run?
When the barbecue is done
When will all this (fooling?) end?
The holy ghost, the holy ghost

I've got a ....we're all done (the holy ghost x2)

What if we never see each other again ? (the holy ghost x2)
(Repeat Section)

Light Up The Sky
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.

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,

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
