The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
Recuerdo la tarde que te conocí
El sol brillaba mas que antes
Entramos por la puerta grande con el mismo amor
Nos dimos beso a beso esta gran pasión
Tus manos me decían todo,
Mi entrega no tenia tono, éramos tu y yo,
Se apago la luz, sin saber siquiera
Nos falto el valor para salvar la idea
Que nos sucedió, no alcanzo a entender
Pero algo fallo, esa es la verdad
Nunca imagine que este amor fuera a terminar
Fuimos viento y mar, fuego y libertad
Algo que se da una sola vez
Recuerdo los momentos de felicidad,
Tus manos me decían todo,
Mi entrega no tenia tono, éramos tu y yo
Que nos sucedió, no alcanzo a entender
Pero algo fallo, esa es la verdad
Nunca imagine que este amor fuera a terminar
Fuimos viento y mar, fuego y libertad
Algo que se da una sola vez
Cuando se ha querido, con el mismo corazón
Cuando se ha querido, con un mismo corazón
Recuerdo los momentos de felicidad
Tus manos me decían todo,
Mi entrega no tenia tono, éramos tu y yo,
Se apago la luz, sin saber siquiera
Nos falto el valor para salvar la idea
Que nos sucedió, no alcanzo a entender
Pero algo fallo, esa es la verdad
Nunca imagine que este amor fuera a terminar
Fuimos viento y mar, fuego y libertad
Algo que se da una sola vez
Recuerdo los momentos de felicidad,
Tus manos me decían todo,
Mi entrega no tenia tono, éramos tu y yo
Que nos sucedió, no alcanzo a entender
Pero algo fallo, esa es la verdad
Nunca imagine que este amor fuera a terminar
Fuimos viento y mar, fuego y libertad
Algo que se da una sola vez
Cuando se ha querido, con el mismo corazón
Cuando se ha querido, con un mismo corazón
El sol brillaba mas que antes
Entramos por la puerta grande con el mismo amor
Nos dimos beso a beso esta gran pasión
Tus manos me decían todo,
Mi entrega no tenia tono, éramos tu y yo,
Se apago la luz, sin saber siquiera
Nos falto el valor para salvar la idea
Que nos sucedió, no alcanzo a entender
Pero algo fallo, esa es la verdad
Nunca imagine que este amor fuera a terminar
Fuimos viento y mar, fuego y libertad
Algo que se da una sola vez
Recuerdo los momentos de felicidad,
Tus manos me decían todo,
Mi entrega no tenia tono, éramos tu y yo
Que nos sucedió, no alcanzo a entender
Pero algo fallo, esa es la verdad
Nunca imagine que este amor fuera a terminar
Fuimos viento y mar, fuego y libertad
Algo que se da una sola vez
Cuando se ha querido, con el mismo corazón
Cuando se ha querido, con un mismo corazón
Recuerdo los momentos de felicidad
Tus manos me decían todo,
Mi entrega no tenia tono, éramos tu y yo,
Se apago la luz, sin saber siquiera
Nos falto el valor para salvar la idea
Que nos sucedió, no alcanzo a entender
Pero algo fallo, esa es la verdad
Nunca imagine que este amor fuera a terminar
Fuimos viento y mar, fuego y libertad
Algo que se da una sola vez
Recuerdo los momentos de felicidad,
Tus manos me decían todo,
Mi entrega no tenia tono, éramos tu y yo
Que nos sucedió, no alcanzo a entender
Pero algo fallo, esa es la verdad
Nunca imagine que este amor fuera a terminar
Fuimos viento y mar, fuego y libertad
Algo que se da una sola vez
Cuando se ha querido, con el mismo corazón
Cuando se ha querido, con un mismo corazón

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
