He certainly did earn that reputation.
Kids, you have to remember that
I'm up here conducting you for a reason, okay?
Watch me, watch my fingers, here we go, ready?
Watch me, one and two and three and ready
Dès le premier jour
Ton parfum enivre, mon amour
C'est dans ces instants
J'aimerais être comme toi par moments
Mais depuis ce jour
Je n'ai qu'un seul, et unique regret
My wing tips waltz across naive wood floors
They creak innocently down the stairs
Drag melody
My percussive feet serve cobweb headaches
As a matching set of marching clocks
The slumbering apparitions
That they've come to wake up
Here I am, composing a burlesque
Out of where they rest their necks
Sunken in their splintered cradles
And ramshackle heads
They ask for it
As a girl, you have set your heart on
Haunting me forever from the start
It's never silent
Ever since we met
I only shoot up with your perfume
It's the only thing that makes me feel as good as you do
Ever since we met
I've got just one regret to live through
And that one regret is you
How does a heart love
If no one has noticed its presence?
And where does it go?
Trembling hands play my heart like a drum
But the beat's gotten lost in the show
You have set your heart on
Haunting me forever from the start
It's never silent
Ever since we met
I only shoot up with your perfume
It's the only thing that makes me feel as good as you do
Ever since we met
I've got just one regret to live through
And I regret never letting you know
Ever since we met
I only shoot up with your perfume
It's the only thing that makes me feel as good as you do
Ever since we met
I've got just one regret to live through
And that one regret is you
Mona Lisa
Pleased to please ya (and that one regret is you)
Mona Lisa
Pleased to please ya (and that one regret is you)
Mona Lisa
Pleased to please ya (I've got just one, ahh)
I'm up here conducting you for a reason, okay?
Watch me, watch my fingers, here we go, ready?
Watch me, one and two and three and ready

Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.
Fast Car

"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.
The Night We Met
Lord Huron
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
The french part is :
Dès le premier jour Ton parfum enivra mon amour Et dans ces instants J’aimerais être comme toi par moment Mais depuis ce jour Je n’ai qu’un seul et unique regret
Which, in English, roughly gives :
Since the first day Your perfume intoxicated my love And during these instants I would love to be like you at moments But since this day I have one and only regret
So it’s basically the translation of the chorus (Ever since we met... one regret to live through). =)
I love the French part a lot. It’s very poetic. And I plain love the accent.
