This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
You don't tell me anything
That's not a dream
That's not a big lie
You're not going anywhere
You don't care
You think that's fine
You don't owe me anything
You're offering
It's already mine
Your best friend is everywhere
They don't care
They think you're slime
You don't even know
What it means to take your own advice
And then expect me to look surprised
After a while you know their style
And that's enough to know they suck
And when you know they'll stop the show
Because they know you know
I know it's sad but don't feel bad
They knew they had it coming
After awhile it hurts to smile
And if you laugh it's just a typical miracle
That's not a dream
That's not a big lie
You're not going anywhere
You don't care
You think that's fine
You don't owe me anything
You're offering
It's already mine
Your best friend is everywhere
They don't care
They think you're slime
You don't even know
What it means to take your own advice
And then expect me to look surprised
After a while you know their style
And that's enough to know they suck
And when you know they'll stop the show
Because they know you know
I know it's sad but don't feel bad
They knew they had it coming
After awhile it hurts to smile
And if you laugh it's just a typical miracle

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

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,

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
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/
THIS SONG IS AAAAAAMMMMMMAAAAZING. The guitar part right before he starts singing is intense and angry and I love it so much. It just reminds me of how fed up you can get with people in general, especially when they are fake bitches. "After a while you know their style, and that's enough to know they suck!" You tell 'em how it is Doug.
after awhile you know thier style...dah dah dah dah.
wonderful song. lets all sing along.
i love this song, but does anyone else pick up a beatles' "good morning, good morning" nod??? "after awhile you start to smile" = "after awhile you know their style"
the rythym in general sorta sounds like it. anyway. great song.
who are the beatles? Bts rocks!!!
Who are the Beatles? Really now? Do you live under a rock? <br /> <br /> The Beatles are fabulous to say the least, and most contemporary rock music stems from their creative genius. <br /> <br /> I suggest starting with Abbey Road, the White Album and Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart's Club Band. <br /> <br /> And on another note, this song is so SO good... I love how it builds :)
i see some tongue-in-cheek reference to the bitter hearted "indie rock" snobs that thrive on contempt for one another.

BTS are god s(period)
yeah definitely a nod to the beatles in this one
If you listen very closely to the last part of this song you hear Doug saying "you should have tried" over and over again. It's very very quiet but it's definitely there.
actually i think its "you could have tried"
actually i think its "you could have tried"
Doug wrote this song about Issac Broc. It's about how Isaac is a baby when it comes to tough crowds and stops shows when he gets pissed off.
are you just asuming that because i think your right<br />
what gives you that idea?
I personally doubt that it is a specific reference to I. Brock. I've never been told or read that Isaac Brock was/is notorious for stopping shows if ever he felt like he was facing some form of opposition or tension from the crowd.
@Johndis? I'd say this is doubtful. Isaac and Doug are good friends, who record together and are on good terms. They used to tour together a bunch too.
