Process
You're constant changing phases
I watch them
Releasing right on cue
In time, in sync
Tonight the stage is yours

So why wait to discover your dreams?
Now here's your chance

I promise
To watch and raise your babies
In time, in sync
Tonight the stage is yours

I, I'm hypnotized by your name
I, I wish this night would never end

So why wait for the colors to bleed?
What do you expect?

So heartless we march into the fumes
In time, in sync
Tonight the stage is yours

I, I'm hypnotized by your name
I, I wish this night would never end

I wish this night

I, I'm hypnotized by your name
I, I wish this night would never end

I wish this night
I wish this night wouldn't end
I wish this night

    My Interpretation

    This song has an awesome opening hook.

    This song makes me think of an obsessed fan, in this case a fan of a female performing artist, at one of the artist's concerts. He's just star struck, even simply by her name, a common reaction that obsessed fans will get when finally meeting the object of their obsession. He knows all her moves, he'll take care of her babies. He just doesn't want this night to end.

    Funny thing is, I also see this song as a prequel to Digital Bath, for those that know what that song's about.

    I wonder what's that mumbling after 2:40

    My first impression of the lyrics were about being really drunk at a strip club and falling in love with a stripper. At the end he hits the proverbial too drunk "wall" and sings what sounds to me like "I wish this night would end". Thus ending his drunken infatuation.

    I never really understood what this song truly meant until today. When you find the one person you've been searching for and you would do anything to be with them. It is borderline obsession, some may call it love. I myself don't even understand what it is yet; this song truly resonates with me now.

    I think it's a love song about drugs. Chino may have implied that it's about a woman but the feeling of this song sounds twisted romantic, its hit harding and mesmerizingly enchanting at the same time, like a drug hit and the feeling of wanting more of it.

    I think it's a love song about drugs. Chino may have implied that it's about a woman but the feeling of this song sounds twisted romantic, its hard-hitting and mesmerizingly enchanting at the same time, like a drug hit and the feeling of wanting more of it.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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.

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,

No Surprises
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.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
