Hello hey buddy wanna thank you for the ride
Don't know how I would have made it without you
Had to push when you got busted had to help you get adjusted
Had to pick up pieces after you'd been thro'
But you had to have assistance in confirming your existence
And establishing resistance to the one or two hard feelings left behind

One or two hard feelings left behind

It's alright brother have to thank you for the fun
Don't know how I'll ever find my way alone
There were all the friends around you
There were some who claimed they found you
And a few who helped construct your favourite rôle
But you saw your queen embrace her, in the process you amaze her
And if I may paraphrase her there are one or two hard feelings

There are one or two hard feelings left behind

So sit tight buddy let me say it's been a groove
Don't know how I'll climb this ladder by myself
Just because it's kinda broke it don't mean you'd overlook it
Or expect me up above and giving hand
After all the lights were blinking
In the headline of your thinking, while your open eye
Was winking at the one or two hard feelings

One or two hard feelings left behind

Well so long brother let me say it's been a ball
But as long as you're still climbing I resign
You have been an inspiration to your image's creation
So I think I'll step outside and pass the time
You have been at your debuting
And you're ready for renewing
And there's no time for undoing just the one or two hard feelings

One or two hard feelings left behind

It's bye bye buddy have to say it once again
I appreciate your velvet helping hand
Even though you never gave it I am sure you had to save it
For the gestures of the friends you understand
Now you've gotten even higher
And become your own supplier
And the number one denier of the one or two hard feelings

One or two hard feelings left behind

    I haven't heard this song yet. Apparently this song is about Bob Dylan and his reply is one of my favourite Dylan songs: Positively 4th street.

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.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

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,

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
