Psychotron

Megadeth

Assassin in stealth
Assailant from hell
Impervious to damage

Computer on board
Engaged in war
Non-stop combatant

Maybe not a mutant, maybe a man
Part bionic
And organic
Not a cyborg
Part bionic
And organic
Not a cyborg
Call him Psychotron

Burning inside
Godspeed in glide
Battle plan running

A killing machine
Just downright mean
And forever gunning

Maybe not a mutant, maybe a man
Part bionic
And organic
Not a cyborg
Part bionic
And organic
Not a cyborg
Call him Psychotron

Part bionic
And organic
Not a cyborg
Part bionic
And organic
Not a cyborg
Call him Psychotron

Target to destroy
Arms in employ
Full assault fire threat

Sensors indicate
You will terminate
Life systems disconnect
Part bionic
And organic
Not a cyborg
Part bionic
And organic
Not a cyborg
Call him Psychotron

Part bionic
And organic
Not a cyborg
Part bionic
And organic
Not a cyborg
Call him Psychotron
Psychotron

    This song shares the name of my band... I always thought it was about HAL from 2001: A Space Odyssey

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.

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,

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
