Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
That sunset straight up as it gets
Short shorts resting just right on your hips
Kiss chilling on your lips
I'm for sure going to get it in a minute
First time I take another sip
That Chevrolet sitting in the driveway
Is going to stay sitting
Girl, we ain't get anywhere, but closer
I know you're in the mood
With literally nothing but each other on the to-do list
We got all damn day to do it our way
Like an old tire swing in the shade
Got it made in the sweet spot
Baby, you and me got a couple free seats on a cloud nine ride
Don't matter if we're sitting on the porch, in the car, at a bar
Or a boat down in Panama City
Gonna be a hell of a view
I'm just fine long as I'm sitting next to you, sittin' pretty, yeah
I'm sitting pretty good
I'm sitting pretty
Everything is feeling like it should
Don't think that it could, get any better
But this weather I wish it would
Turn up the heat, couple degrees
Get you in that AC, let down them blinds
Call it a day
We got all damn day to do it our way
Like an old tire swing in the shade
Got it made in the sweet spot
Baby, you and me got a couple free seats on a cloud nine ride
Don't matter if we're sitting on the porch, in the car, at a bar
Or a boat down in Panama City
Gonna be a hell of a view
I'm just fine long as I'm sitting next to you sittin' pretty, yeah
I'm sitting pretty good
I'm sitting pretty, damn
I'm sitting pretty good
Pretty as a peach
As a postcard picture of a west coast beach
So pretty, if I had to bet
This is pretty much as good as it gets
We got all damn day to do it our way
Like an old tire swing in the shade
Got it made in the sweet spot
Baby, you and me got a couple free seats on a cloud nine ride
Don't matter if we're sitting on the porch, in the car, at a bar
Or a boat down in Panama City
Gonna be a hell of a view
I'm just fine long as I'm sitting next to you sittin' pretty
I'm sitting pretty good
I'm sitting pretty, yeah
I'm sitting pretty good
I'm sitting pretty, yeah
I'm sitting pretty good
Short shorts resting just right on your hips
Kiss chilling on your lips
I'm for sure going to get it in a minute
First time I take another sip
That Chevrolet sitting in the driveway
Is going to stay sitting
Girl, we ain't get anywhere, but closer
I know you're in the mood
With literally nothing but each other on the to-do list
We got all damn day to do it our way
Like an old tire swing in the shade
Got it made in the sweet spot
Baby, you and me got a couple free seats on a cloud nine ride
Don't matter if we're sitting on the porch, in the car, at a bar
Or a boat down in Panama City
Gonna be a hell of a view
I'm just fine long as I'm sitting next to you, sittin' pretty, yeah
I'm sitting pretty good
I'm sitting pretty
Everything is feeling like it should

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
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.

Hayalperest
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.
