She sat me down and told me how
My eyes reveal a secret now
You're souls been hiding in a cloud
So scared of change

Your heart has got to learn to cry (to shed a tear)
Before it grows it's wings to fly (away from here)
Everything must fade and die to move it on

Listen to your heart
And let it blow your world apart
Then you must go it alone
And keep searching for home
Remember nothing's ever set in stone

Thank you for the good advice (you gave me then)
Before I wouldn't have thought twice (I was so young)
I'm melting through the frozen ice
My spring is near
And it's so clear

What it is I have to do (to save my skin)
Bow my head and battle through (the shit I'm in)
And I'll be standing there with you
All because you said

Listen to your heart
And let it blow your world apart
Then you must go it alone
And keep searching for home
Remember nothing's ever set in stone

Open up your eyes
And you might keep your dream alive
So when you've finally flown and your resistance has grown
Then you'll know nothing's ever set in stone

You can turn back the clock but you don't need to
It's never too late to fix you life

Open up your eyes
And you might keep your dream alive
So when you've finally flown and your resistance has grown
Then you'll know nothing's ever set in stone
Nothing's ever set in stone

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."

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,

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.
