This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Oh I'm a going to tell you if you don't know
Bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
About a great ball player from a long time ago
Bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba buh bum
Who's a hero to me I ain't putting you on son
Cause I'm now going to tell the story of baseball's great Walter Johnson
And all through baseball he was loved and respected
Well bitterness in Walter Johnson? It was never detected
Well now when pitchers throw their pitch to scare
Bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
They actually try to almost hit that opposing player
Doo da doo da doo da doo da doo da doo da doo
Walter Johnson wouldn't do that not even just a little
He made sure he through the baseball right down the middle
And all through baseball he was loved and respected
Was there bitterness in Walter Johnson? Well it was never detected
Now he pitched for the Washington Senators back in about 1924, now 1906
Now look when the Washington 9 was inclined to win
Bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
Cause Walter Johnson would actually ease up a little on the opposition, that's right
Bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
Now the other team mates they simply didn't get it
They said "Walter how come you let him hit it?"
Now Walter just told them with his gentle smile
"Boys, This game isn't any fun if you don't get a hit once in a while."
Now all through baseball he was loved and respected.
Was there bitterness in Walter Johnson? Well it was never detected
Now a record's just a record a book is just a book
Bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
This Walter Johnson I speak of never so much as gave the opposing team a dirty look
Bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
And a season's just a season in game that was supposed to be just a game
Walter Johnson cared about people more than he cared about fame
So all through baseball he was loved and respected
Ah bitterness in Walter Johnson? Well it was never detected
Bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
About a great ball player from a long time ago
Bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba buh bum
Who's a hero to me I ain't putting you on son
Cause I'm now going to tell the story of baseball's great Walter Johnson
And all through baseball he was loved and respected
Well bitterness in Walter Johnson? It was never detected
Well now when pitchers throw their pitch to scare
Bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
They actually try to almost hit that opposing player
Doo da doo da doo da doo da doo da doo da doo
Walter Johnson wouldn't do that not even just a little
He made sure he through the baseball right down the middle
And all through baseball he was loved and respected
Was there bitterness in Walter Johnson? Well it was never detected
Now he pitched for the Washington Senators back in about 1924, now 1906
Now look when the Washington 9 was inclined to win
Bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
Cause Walter Johnson would actually ease up a little on the opposition, that's right
Bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
Now the other team mates they simply didn't get it

Bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum

Bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
And a season's just a season in game that was supposed to be just a game

So all through baseball he was loved and respected
Ah bitterness in Walter Johnson? Well it was never detected

No Surprises
Radiohead
Radiohead
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.
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.
