This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Today was a fairytale, you were the prince
I used to be a damsel in distress
You took me by the hand and you picked me up at six
Today was a fairytale
Today was a fairytale
Today was a fairytale, I wore a dress
You wore a dark grey T-shirt
You told me I was pretty when I looked like a mess
Today was a fairytale
Time slows down
Whenever you're around
But can you feel this magic in the air?
It must have been the way you kissed me
Fell in love when I saw you standin' there
It must have been the way
Today was a fairytale
It must have been the way
Today was a fairytale
Today was a fairytale, you've got a smile
That takes me to another planet
Every move you make, everything you say is right
Today was a fairytale
Today was a fairytale, all that I can say
Is now it's getting so much clearer
Nothin' made sense 'til the time I saw your face
Today was a fairytale
Time slows down
Whenever you're around
Yeah
But can you feel this magic in the air?
It must have been the way you kissed me
Fell in love when I saw you standin' there
It must have been the way
Today was a fairytale
It must have been the way
Today was a fairytale
Time slows down
Whenever you're around
I can feel my heart
It's beating in my chest
Did you feel it?
I can't put this down
But can you feel this magic in the air?
It must have been the way you kissed me
Fell in love when I saw you standin' there
It must have been the way
But can you feel this magic in the air?
It must have been the way you kissed me
Fell in love when I saw you standing there
It must have been the way
Today was a fairytale
It must have been the way
Today was a fairytale
Oh, oh
Yeah, oh
Today was a fairytale
I used to be a damsel in distress
You took me by the hand and you picked me up at six
Today was a fairytale
Today was a fairytale
Today was a fairytale, I wore a dress
You wore a dark grey T-shirt
You told me I was pretty when I looked like a mess
Today was a fairytale
Time slows down
Whenever you're around
But can you feel this magic in the air?
It must have been the way you kissed me
Fell in love when I saw you standin' there
It must have been the way
Today was a fairytale
It must have been the way
Today was a fairytale
Today was a fairytale, you've got a smile
That takes me to another planet
Every move you make, everything you say is right
Today was a fairytale
Today was a fairytale, all that I can say
Is now it's getting so much clearer

Today was a fairytale

But can you feel this magic in the air?
It must have been the way you kissed me
Fell in love when I saw you standing there
It must have been the way
Today was a fairytale
It must have been the way
Today was a fairytale
Oh, oh
Yeah, oh
Today was a fairytale

@[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."

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
This is the first single from the soundtrack for the romantic comedy Valentine's Day, in which Taylor Swift makes her movie acting debut. The country-pop singer wrote this song for the film.
The song features boy-meets-girl lyrics utilizing a fairy tale metaphor in a similar way to Swift's 2008 single "Love Story."
The song first appeared in late December 2009 in a teaser trailer for Valentine's Day.
Another page was written in Taylor Swift's own personal fairytale when it was announced that this song broke the record for best first-week download sales by a female artist moving 325,000 digital sales on the first February chart of 2010. The prior mark for biggest debut week download sales by a female artist belonged to Britney Spears' "Womanizer," which moved 286,000 units in October 2008. The largest opening week for a track among all artists was established by Black Eyed Peas' "Boom Boom Pow" (465,000) in April 2009.
Spears took her record back again in January 2011 when "Hold It Against Me" debuted with 411,000 downloads in its first week.
For those of you who like chart trivia, in its second week on the Hot 100 the song dropped from #2 to #22. The tune that had been #22 the previous week was Swift's collaboration with Boys Like Girls, thus demonstrating that two is indeed better than one. Maybe this song should have been titled "2day Was a Fairytale."
This song was only the second ever, following Eminem's Crack a Bottle, to debut at #1 on the Canadian Hot 100.
this song is pretty self explanatory...that day was a fairytale, and she's talking about what it's like to be in love with that guy. i love how she sings, "can you feel this magic in the air?" it's like she's comparing her love life to a fairytale and realizing how similar they are. super cute song!!! so deserved to be number 1 on itunes!
Soo catchy! I can't wait for Valentines Day to come out!! :)
i love that movie!!!!!!!
This song is so cute <3
'you told me i was pretty when i looked like a mess'
ahh.. i love this song.:)
oh jeeze. <3 this song is so cute and great. i listened to it all spring break.
AWESOME SONG!!!! LOVE TAYLOR SWFIT!!! This song may very well be one of her best!!! I love it when guys wear dark grey t-shirts too! You know the kind, a darker kind of heatherish, slate grey. They look so hot in it because no matter what color their eyes are, it brings them out like never before. Oh, how I wish my crush had a plain dark grey t-shirt!!!!
Anyways, I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!
it is about that perfect date every girl dreams about. they have a date where time like stops while they have the time of their life. and then they kiss and kno that there is magic there. the couple can feel the magic and it was love at first sight. and when it says it was a fairytale it means its every girls fairytale date. this song is super cute
I would normally never utter "super cute," but you are correct. It's super cute:) It's every girl's/woman's fantasy to have that first date with a guy you've loved from afar and the date ends up being better than you could ever have hoped/expected. I am old enough to remember those days when going to bed with someone was not the climax of the date; rather, a simple kiss on the cheek or on the lips followed by the excitment of wondering if he'd call the next day left the best feeling...one of hope and anticipation.
love this song reminds me of my first date love it
Sounds like a really really good first date or at least when you feel like you're falling in love with someone relatively new. Apparently s/he had a great time (great kiss, too) and there's love in the air. All is good with the boyfriend/girlfriend.
