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.
Hey you got to step outside to see what's going on
Hey you can't run and hide when the psybin trip is on
Not like this have you seen such green
A spot like this becomes serene
I'm glad you're here, I have no fear
[Chorus]
We trip the shrooms fantastic and shit gets drastic
Elbow pull and kick
We trip the shrooms fantastic and shit gets drastic
Check it out
Right now my brain is fragile
But then you seem so agile, we'll make it in tea
And we'll see what there is to see
[Chorus]
Make an instrumental, add a little vocal
Take it to the stage and make the people go loco
Make an instrumental, add a little vocal
Take it to the stage and make the people go loco
Boom boom you got the spinning of the room
Quite right you got the breaking of the light
Boom boom you got the spinning of the room
Quite right you got the breaking of the light
And the sun and the moon and the spinning of the room
It does to my sight what the prizm does to light
You're quicker than me ridiculous see
You come follow me get lobotomy
You're quicker than me ridiculous see
You come follow me get lobotomy
[Chorus]
Make an instrumental, add a little vocal
Take it to the stage and make the people go loco
[5x]
Hey you can't run and hide when the psybin trip is on
Not like this have you seen such green
A spot like this becomes serene
I'm glad you're here, I have no fear
[Chorus]
We trip the shrooms fantastic and shit gets drastic
Elbow pull and kick
We trip the shrooms fantastic and shit gets drastic
Check it out
Right now my brain is fragile
But then you seem so agile, we'll make it in tea
And we'll see what there is to see
[Chorus]
Make an instrumental, add a little vocal
Take it to the stage and make the people go loco
Make an instrumental, add a little vocal
Take it to the stage and make the people go loco
Boom boom you got the spinning of the room
Quite right you got the breaking of the light
Boom boom you got the spinning of the room
Quite right you got the breaking of the light
And the sun and the moon and the spinning of the room
It does to my sight what the prizm does to light
You're quicker than me ridiculous see
You come follow me get lobotomy
You're quicker than me ridiculous see
You come follow me get lobotomy
[Chorus]
Make an instrumental, add a little vocal
Take it to the stage and make the people go loco
[5x]

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.
Holiday
Bee Gees
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.
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

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.
