Turn Me Loose

Young Divas

I was born to run
I was born to dream
The craziest girl you ever seen
I gotta do it my way
Or no way at all

And then you came around
Tried to tie me down
I was such a clown
You had to have it your way
Or no way at all

So why don't you turn me loose
Turn me loose
Turn me loose
Turn me loose
I gotta do it my way
I wanna fly

And I was here to please
I'm even on my knees
Makin' love to whoever I please
I gotta do it my way
Or no way at all

Well, I've had all I can take
I can't take it no more
I'm gonna pack my bags and fly, baby
Or no way at all

So why don't you turn me loose
Turn me loose
Turn me loose
Turn me loose
I gotta do it my way
I wanna fly, I wanna fly

And it's just the way I am
Shorty should understand
That I stay on the ground all the time
And that is what makes me the man

Put it back in on the streets
Say I do that for my queen
And I give her what she needs
As long as she looks after me

And I represent for the block
South Auckland is on top
If I do my way don't stop
Young Divas make it pop

I do it all here for you
Hold it down for the troops
Stepping up on the floor
Now check, I'm givin' it to 'em

Turn me loose
(Oh ohh)
Turn me loose
(Oh ohh)
Turn me loose
(Oh ohh)

I gotta do it my way
(Gotta do it my way)
Or no way at all
(No way at all, at all)

(So why don't you turn me lose)
Turn me loose
(Turn me loose)
Turn me loose
(Turn me loose)

Turn me loose
(I gotta do it my way)
Gotta do it my way
(I wanna fly)
I wanna fly yeah

I was born to run
I was born to dream
I got, got, got
I gotta do it my way
And I wanna fly, yeah

So why don't you
Turn me loose

Turn me loose
Turn me loose

I gotta do it my way
Or no way at all

Turn me loose
Turn me loose
Turn me loose

I gotta do it my way
I wanna fly

Mountain Song
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."

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.

Amazing
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.
