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."
De repente yo sentí
Tu eres todo para mí
Físico
Es tu físico
Físico
Lo que a mi me ha enloquecido
Físico
Puro físico
Físico
Quiero olvidar y besar
Yo no te traté bien
y me arrepiento amor, anhelo tu calor
Eso nunca sabrás
Dime ahora si tu sientes como yo
Por que no pude ver oh
Que hacías planes incluyendo mi querer
Sé que tu volverás (Sé que tu volverás)
No sé cuando ni dónde tu me amarás
No quiero hablar
Quiero olvidar y besar
No te lo pienses amor
Quiero olvidar y besar
ésta noche amor mío estamos juntos los dos
Te necesito a mi lado definitivo
Físico
Lo que a mi me ha enloquecido
Físico
Quiero olvidar y besar
Es tu forma de andar
Tu forma de ser
Esa sonrisa en ti
Eso me hizo ver
No es posible vivir sin tu querer
No quiero hablar
Quiero olvidar y besar
No te lo pienses amor
Quiero olvidar y besar
ésta noche amor mío estamos juntos los dos
Te necesito a mi lado definitivo
No quiero hablar
Quiero olvidar y besar
No te lo pienses amor
Quiero olvidar y besar
ésta noche amor mío estamos juntos los dos

Tú me tienes que perdonar
Te diré la verdad
No más mentiras ni más lagrimas
Me he querido olvidar de ti
Pero sin ti no puedo vivir
No quiero hablar
No quiero hablar
No no no quiero hablar
Quiero olvidar y besar
No quiero hablar
Quiero olvidar y besar

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
