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"
Oh! Shake it, baby!
Funny Man! Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Los Angeles!
Undead, let's go!
'Cause there's no other place that I'd rather be than Los Angeles
Come on, shake it, baby
Come on, grab a drink, I wanna see you hit the flo'
You've got a fat ass, but you shake it like you ain't a ho
There's no other place that I'd rather be than Los Angeles
Come on, shake it, baby
Come on, grab a drink, I wanna see you hit the flo'
You've got a fat ass, but you shake it like you ain't a ho
Who that, who that, knockin' on the window?
It's Funny, JDog, smokin' up the indo
Windows down, you know the system's bangin'
Hollywood Undead, I ain't playin'
Cruisin' downtown with the bottle beside me
Lookin' so fly I got bitches behind me
Yo I'm in the studio makin' something to dance too
'Cause these bitches wanna hear something they can shake their ass to
We up in LA represent Hollywood
West side 'till I die, motherfucker what's good?
So what's good with that, when this song's a wrap
Deuce in the studio, got bitches in the back
Smoked out, backseat, dippin' in the taxi
So what 'cha gonna do when I knock you out foo?
You know we keep it the same, you know Undead is the name
Say what you say, it's okay, we ain't never gonna change
'Cause there's no other place that I'd rather be than Los Angeles
Come on, shake it, baby
Come on, grab a drink, I wanna see you hit the flo'
You've got a fat ass, but you shake it like you ain't a ho
There's no other place that I'd rather be than Los Angeles
Come on, shake it, baby
Come on, grab a drink, I wanna see you hit the flo'
You've got a fat ass, but you shake it like you ain't a ho
Everybody in the club shake it up!
LA let me see you shake it up!
Hollywood let me see you shake it up!
Everybody shake it up, come one, shake it baby!
I ain't fuckin' around 'cause King Kong is down
Crystal, shake it up, we all ova this town
So let's cruise to the Boulevard into the Beauty Bar
And let me see you work that ass, come on and shake it fast
Two whiskey hits, JDogs giving shots in the back
So where my boys at?
There goes Johnny 3 cruisin' in the Cadillac
'63 no dubs and that's a fact!
When you see me on the scene, black shirt, black jeans,
Tattoos, white shoes
Runnin' 30 deep foo!
In the city of LA where it's just another day
Shooting craps with the Phantom
Dude thinks he's getting paid!
We ain't here to front, we ain't here to beef
We're just here to get you out of yo muthafuckin' seat
And you don't really wanna step to this
Funny Man, Undead, and we rock it like what?
'Cause there's no other place that I'd rather be than Los Angeles
Come on, shake it, baby
Come on, grab a drink, I wanna see you hit the flo'
You've got a fat ass, but you shake it like you ain't a ho
There's no other place that I'd rather be than Los Angeles
Come on, shake it, baby
Come on, grab a drink, I wanna see you hit the flo'
You've got a fat ass, but you shake it like you ain't a ho
Oh shit! What's really goin' on baby?
What's happenin' playboy, you know who this is!

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.
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."
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
There's no other place that I would rather be than Los Angeles! Seriously, I hate this state!!! nice song though.
