Harrison Ford

Braid

"i want to be your hero"
says the guy to the camera
moving stage right
his eyes are the only things alive
and i know who he looks like

so cheers to the ocean
tuesday's always pouring

i heard you're hurt
your heart is under my shirt
we haven't been born yet
two silhouettes
and don't forget cigarettes

a ceiling of sound
is snowing down on
us on the ground
the carols of yesterday
are sharing the chair
taking turns curling up
with what's there

goodbye company
goodbye family
hello halos
for martyrs
like you and me

"i want to be your hero"
says me to the mirror
i hide stare at the ceiling
and smile
i'm glad you're on my side

cheers to the ocean
tuesday's always pouring

a celing of crowns
hangs over the crowd
and brings down the clowns
carry the clouds
that mark off these towns

cheers to the ocean
tuesday's always pouring
the angels share

    i'd like to know what this song is about and if harrison ford actually plays into it at all. on my radioshow, i played this back-to-back with vermont's 'arrest harrison ford!' cos i think it's weird to see two songs with harrison ford in the title. [it's safe to say that this is the dorkiest comment i've ever written.]

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.

Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
