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.
As the days turn into weeks
You and I we hardly speak
The flowers bloom in the month of June
But that really doesn't matter cause I lost you
A melody comes suddenly
A love sick song for the symphony
I write these words to catch your ear
And the world will sing along for you my dear
But you take it, you forget
I know, I know we're losing it
Cause you waste it, I regret
The time, the moment that we met
Get out of my head, radio song
Get out of my head, radio song
Let's pretend that this never happened
I work to hard and I never sleep
The notes are done but I'm incomplete
Do you think that I could see you at another time?
Cause I'm out singing late on a Friday night
I'll slow down when I'm fifty-four
With a million words and a thousand scores
But is it really worth it if you're all alone?
Living in a mansion that's an empty home?
But I'll take it, I'll forget
I know, I know I'm losing it
Cause I'll waste it, I'll regret
The time, the moment that you left
Get out of my head, radio song
Get out of my head, radio song
Get out of my head, radio song
Get out of my head, radio song
We can't stop, we can't rewind
These words keep playing through my mind
So can we just restart
From places where we weren't apart
Get out of my head, radio song
Get out of my head, radio song
Get out of my head, radio song
Get out of my head, radio song
Get out of my head, radio song
Get out of my head, radio song
Let's pretend that this never happened
You and I we hardly speak
The flowers bloom in the month of June
But that really doesn't matter cause I lost you
A melody comes suddenly
A love sick song for the symphony
I write these words to catch your ear
And the world will sing along for you my dear
But you take it, you forget
I know, I know we're losing it
Cause you waste it, I regret
The time, the moment that we met
Get out of my head, radio song
Get out of my head, radio song
Let's pretend that this never happened
I work to hard and I never sleep
The notes are done but I'm incomplete
Do you think that I could see you at another time?
Cause I'm out singing late on a Friday night
I'll slow down when I'm fifty-four
With a million words and a thousand scores
But is it really worth it if you're all alone?
Living in a mansion that's an empty home?
But I'll take it, I'll forget
I know, I know I'm losing it
Cause I'll waste it, I'll regret
The time, the moment that you left
Get out of my head, radio song
Get out of my head, radio song
Get out of my head, radio song
Get out of my head, radio song
We can't stop, we can't rewind
These words keep playing through my mind
So can we just restart
From places where we weren't apart
Get out of my head, radio song
Get out of my head, radio song
Get out of my head, radio song
Get out of my head, radio song
Get out of my head, radio song
Get out of my head, radio song
Let's pretend that this never happened

Little Feat
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Gentle Hour

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,

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
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.
I am loving this song!! The lyircs are very neat, I cant believe this song isn't more popular. I cannot wait to hear what else this band has coming! Very nice!! :D
