Sittin' Up In My Room

Brandy

Seems like ever since
The first day we met
There is no one else I think of more than you
Can't seem to forget
Can't get you out my head
'Cause the verdicts in
I'm crazy over you
How can one be down?
Tell me where to start
'Cause every time you smile
I feel tremors in my heart
I have but one concern
How can I get with you?
'Til my day comes here's what I'm gon' do

Be sitting up in my room
Back here thinking 'bout you
I must confess I'm a mess for you
Be sitting up in my room
Back here thinking 'bout you
I'm just a mess with a thing for you

Pray that you'll invest
In my happiness
All it takes is just one simple call from you
Turn my heart around
If I'm making ground
Pretty baby please tell me if I'm getting through
Tell me what is up
You see I need to know
Tell me if I'm far or if I'm getting close
I have but one concern
And one concern is you
'Til I'm with you here's what I'm gon' do

Be sitting up in my room
Back here thinking 'bout you
I must confess I'm a mess for you
Be sitting up in my room
Back here thinking 'bout you
I'm just a mess with a thing for you

Ooh whoa, oh yeah, oh yeah
Hmm, oh, oh, oh

How can one be down?
Tell me where to start
'Cause every time you smile
I feel tremors in my heart
I have but one concern
How can I get with you?
'Til my day comes here's what I'm gonna do

Be sitting up in my room
Back here thinking 'bout you
I must confess I'm a mess for you
Be sitting up in my room
Back here thinking 'bout you
I'm just a mess with a thing for you

Be sitting up in my room
Back here thinking 'bout you
I must confess I'm a mess for you
Be sitting up in my room
Back here thinking 'bout you
I'm just a mess with a thing for you

Be sitting up in my room
Back here thinking 'bout you
I must confess I'm a mess for you
Be sitting up in my room
Back here thinking 'bout you
I'm just a mess with a thing for you

Be sitting up in my room
Back here thinking 'bout you
I must confess I'm a mess for you
Be sitting up in my room
Back here thinking 'bout you
I'm just a mess with a thing for you

Be sitting up in my room
Back here thinking 'bout you
I must confess I'm a mess for you
Be sitting up in my room

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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.

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.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.

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.
