The rhythm, the rhythm, the rhythm, the rhythm
The rhythm, the rhythm, the rhythm, the rhythm
The rhythm, the rhythm, the rhythm, the rhythm
The rhythm, the rhythm, the rhythm, the rhythm
The rhythm, the rhythm, the rhythm, the rhythm
The rhythm, the rhythm, the rhythm, the rhythm
The rhythm, the rhythm, the rhythm, the rhythm

The rhythm of legs moving in the sun
The rhythm of an engine deep and throating
The rhythm of a summer that you walked in

The sound of a barking dog on a loop
A plane rises in the crystal blue
The rhythm of keys swinging in your hand
The rhythm of light coming out of your fingers

Heaven, heaven
Heaven, heaven
Heaven, heaven
Can you feel it?
Can you feel it?
Heaven, heaven

The rhythm of wheels the rhythm of heels
As we fall into the sun
She walk on silver she walk on gold
Paints I love you on the alley walls
From the eyes that hide behind black glasses
Sunlight hits tell me what she passes

Heaven, heaven
Heaven, heaven
Heaven, heaven
Can you feel it?
Can you feel it?
Heaven, heaven

Heaven, heaven
Heaven, heaven
Heaven, heaven

Heaven, heaven
Heaven, heaven
Heaven, heaven

And I don't know if I love you more
Than the way you used to love me
And I don't know if I need you more
Than the way you used to need me
But it's

Heaven, heaven
Heaven, heaven
Heaven, heaven
Can you feel it?
Can you feel it?
Heaven, heaven

Heaven, heaven
Heaven, heaven
Heaven, heaven
Can you feel it?
Can you feel it?
Heaven, heaven

Heaven, heaven
Heaven, heaven
Heaven, heaven
Can you feel it?
Can you feel it?
Heaven, heaven

Heaven, heaven
Heaven, heaven
Heaven, heaven
Can you feel it?
Can you feel it?
Heaven, heaven

    I love this song as well. Something about it just makes me happy. I get chills when they start singing "heaven, heaven".

    I think the song is about the everyday rhythms of life and how fascinating the world can be if we stop for a moment and just watch and listen, cars in the distance, reflections of light, a beautiful woman walking towards us, and how it all blends into the music we listen to.

    I can't help but think of the raver character form the show Spaced who gets trapped at a traffic light as if it's a club strobe hearing all the sounds rhythmically pulsing around him.

    And the title... no idea.

    Like most of you, I'm driven to know the meaning of this song. It just has that timeless feeling, you know, like love at first sight.

    It starts out and continues to emphasize a basic rhythm of life, one can imagine all sorts of normal activities transpiring to the rhythm of the song. That HEAVY 4/4 beat the "heartbeat" when your dancing. So your picturing people walking on the beach and their steps are in tune to the beat of this song---- then your mind travels to a ferris wheel stopping the rays of the sun from hitting your eyes, in time to this song----- this has ever happened to you ??? If you listen to music on headphones especially, you tend to perform your actions in time with the song right? "Can you feel it"? "Heaven." (philosophical musings about life lived in rhythm being a kind of heaven?)

    "As we fall into the sun----" the sun is the source of light and movement, so if we fell into the sun it would imply that we are falling headfirst into rhythm of a visual and rhythmic kind.....(?)

    she walk on silver, she walk on gold---- paints i love you on the alley walls--- from the eyes that hid ebehidn black glasses sunlight hits everyone she passes...

    Man I dont know. This part confuses me. ! The title is implying that when one listens to a song they see a film in their mind, and he's "always loved a film?" so why not? (guessing remember)

    k. I'm done--- probably sounds insane but that's what I'm guessing hahah.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
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.

Mountain Song
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."

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,

Amazing
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.
