Comme nous tu frappes tes peaux
Et tu grattes tes cordes
Tu aboies dans ton micro
Comme les chiens qui mordent
Sans être un virtuose,
Tu t'débrouilles assez bien
Tu sais qu'c'est à ceux qui osent
Que demain appartient

Tu as la nuit, la rage et la rue
La force et l'énergie des espoirs déçus
Tu rêves d'artistes libres
Qui savent encore créer
Des musiques qui enivrent
Les sauvages de ta cité

Comme nous tu avais cru
A l'unité d'une scène
Mais ce rêve s'est perdu,
C'est toujours la même rengaine
Compétition, jalousie
Sapent le moral et tuent l'esprit
La promotion véreuse
Rend l'industrie dangereuse

La "musique-produit" n'a pas d'intérêt
Cru, vivant, insoumis
Sauvage tu restes vrai
Comme nous les castes du rock
Tu les fuis, tu t'en moque
Tu sais qu'elles divisent
Cette scène qui s'enlise...

Jamais je ne me renderai,
Jamais je ne changerai...

Comme nous tu continues
A rêver de concerts, de fêtes ininterrompues
Et de faire le tour de la terre
Pense à ce public qui te ressemble tellement
Tu veux qu'on lui explique qu'on peut vivre autrement

Pratique dans ton trou, joue ta propre musique
Continue jusqu'au bout en restant authentique
Peu importe c'qui arrivera, tu te seras amusé
Et tu n'regretteras pas d'avoir persévéré

D'avoir persévéré
Sans jamais reculer
Et toujours continuer
Sans jamais t'arrêter

Sans réddition!

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

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,

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
