Ojos negros, ojos negros, ojos
Ojos negros veo llorando

Oh, oh, oh
Ojos negros veo llorando por mi
Ojos negros veo llorando, oh, oh
Ojos negros veo llorando por mi
Por mis traiciones, por mis mentiras
Por mis engaños, por mis promesas
Que no cumplí, que prometí

Y ojitos negros lloran por mi
Lloran que lloran, sufren, sufren
Buscan la luz pa' que le alumbren
Ojos negros, saquen el peso
Ojos negros, peso dolor
Ojos negros, encuentren camino
Ojos negros, camino de amor
Y ojos negros veo llorando, oh, oh
Y ojos negros veo llorando por mi

Por mis traiciones, por mis mentiras
Por mis engaños, por mis promesas
Que no cumplí, que prometí, que
Prometí

Y ojitos negros, y ojitos negros
Lloran por mi
Y lloran, y lloran y lloran
Y sufren, y sufren, buscan la luz
Pa' que le alumbren
Ojos negros, saquen el peso
Ojos negros, peso de dolor
Ojos negros, que encuentren camino
Ojos negros, camino de amor
Y ojos negros veo llorando, oh, oh
Y ojos negros veo llorando por mi
Cógelo, cógelo ah
You got it, aprieta que que no lo
Coges, cógelo ese coro oh, oh

Ojos negros, lloran que lloran
Ojos negros, sufren que sufren
Ojos negros, y buscan la luz
Lloran que lloran; pa'que le alumbren
Sufren que sufren; saquen el peso
Ojos negros; sufren el peso
Ojos negros; el peso del dolor
Ojos negros; peso de lagrima
Lloran que lloran;
Que causo mi traición
Sufren que sufren;
Perdóname
Ae, ae, ae; perdóname
Ae, ae, ae; yo te lo juro
Que no lo vuelvo a hacer
Lloran, que lloran
Y ojos negros que siguen llorando
Sufren que sufren; y yo poco a poco
Ae, ae,; sufren que sufren
Vengo arrodillado, vengo

Rémalo suavecito y que no se hunda
Pequeña, échate pa'ca y ese coro
Oh, oh, ae, ae, ae, a
Y ojos negros veo llorando

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Fast Car
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.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[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 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,
