All the pretty girls on a Saturday night
So I call, your name
Cross my fingers, uncross the others
Hesitate, oh I don't think straight
With nothin' to prove
I don't wanna say I'm leavin'
I'll stay until the weekend
You can take all the things, the boxes and rings
And get goin'
'Cause I've been waitin' for
All the pretty girls on a Saturday night
Let it be, and come to me with the look in your eyes
Well you break and take all the words from my mouth
I wish all the pretty girls were shakin' me down
So I call (I call) you out (out baby)
Just to feel a little bit better about myself (he does)
I do (you do), baby
I do, I do, I do
Until their lips start to move
And their friends talk music
I'll say "I've never heard the tune."
But I have, I just hate the band
'Cause they remind me of you
Every single night ends up the same
I don't say much at all, but I bring up your name
(Over and over and over)
I think it's striking me out
All the pretty girls on a Saturday night
Let it be, and come to me with the look in your eyes
Well you break and take all the words from my mouth
I wish all the pretty girls were shaking me down
But not you,
You still wear boots and your hair is too long
And then this one, doesn't wanna admit she's fallin' in love
Oh c'mon, oh c'mon, what's a boy to do
When all the pretty girls can't measure to you ?
Ha !
I don't understand your reasons
Please just stay over the weekend
You can't take all those things
They define you and me
Everything we've become
You're all that I need
Please don't make me face my generation alone
All the pretty girls on a Saturday night
Let it be, and come to me with the look in your eyes
And you break and take all the words from my mouth
I wish all the pretty girls were shakin' me down
But not you,
I feel your faith is destroying the world
And then this one, never really understood
The 80's is over and done
Oh c'mon, what's a boy to do,
When all the pretty girls can't measure to you ?
Say
All the pretty girls on a Saturday night
All the pretty girls on a Saturday night
All the pretty girls on a Saturday night
All the pretty girls on a Saturday night
So I call, your name
Cross my fingers, uncross the others
Hesitate, oh I don't think straight
With nothin' to prove
I don't wanna say I'm leavin'
I'll stay until the weekend
You can take all the things, the boxes and rings
And get goin'
'Cause I've been waitin' for
All the pretty girls on a Saturday night
Let it be, and come to me with the look in your eyes
Well you break and take all the words from my mouth
I wish all the pretty girls were shakin' me down
So I call (I call) you out (out baby)
Just to feel a little bit better about myself (he does)
I do (you do), baby
I do, I do, I do
Until their lips start to move
And their friends talk music
I'll say "I've never heard the tune."
But I have, I just hate the band
'Cause they remind me of you
Every single night ends up the same
I don't say much at all, but I bring up your name
(Over and over and over)
I think it's striking me out
All the pretty girls on a Saturday night

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”
Holiday
Bee Gees
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
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."
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Yes, there is still such a thing as good pop music.
Ironically, this is too good to ever become popular.
