David Byrne & St. Vincent - Who

M83 - Reunion

I enjoyed the up-beat music, then read the lyrics and thought what a great song (minus some materialistic parts). Some sacred ideas (and maybe some higher emotions?) in there though, OSIT.

You came out of nowhere
Stealing my heart and brain
Flaming my every cell
You make me feel myself

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ohohoh...
Will you stand in this land forever?

Across the time and space
A never-ending dance
A blooming and a trance
You make me feel my soul

There's no more loneliness
Only sparkles and sweat
There's no more single fate
You make me feel myself

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ohohoh...
Will you stand in this land forever?

"My body is like a lightning rod
Capsize me and douse me in your bay
A shiver of want, always
When you are on the tip of my tongue
In the back of your parked car
I could build a fort
And play all day
Between your lips
Let's stay here forever"

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ohohoh...
Will you stand in this land forever?
 
Echobelly - ON (the album)

Pantyhose and Roses, Great Things, Natural Animal

Lyrics are metaphorical descriptions of life as ADHD. Compromising, smooth and predictable on the surface while just below the surface is an impetus for spontaneously, impulsively desiring, seeking and responding to genuine emotional cues from others.

Props for this:

Never wanted many things except the chance to learn from my mistakes.
Funny how you never learn but know them when they come around again.

Just today I heard a young kid on a bike shout "OH MY ******* GOD" in English, annoyed as he rode through heavy rain.

That's called "American Cultural Export". Extremely annoying, but it can be cured by switching off all electronic devices.

Once global hegemony is established through colonization, a "master culture" is easily disseminated to all who tune in.

And that's the truth, Ruth! Somebody has to kill the babysitter.
Now, something for these days of democracy (a.k.a. this daze of dumb or crazy):

Steely Dan - King Richard

Now they lay his body down
Sad old men who run this town
I still recall the way
He led the charge and saved the day
Blue blood and rain
I can hear the bugle playing

[Chorus:]
We seen the last of good King Richard
Ring out the past his name lives on and on
Roll out the bones and raise up your pitcher
Raise up your glass to good King John

While he plundered far and wide
All his starving children cried
And though we sung his fame
We all went hungry just the same
He meant to shine to the end of the line

[Chorus:]
We seen the last of good King Richard
Ring out the past his name lives on and on
Roll out the bones and raise up your pitcher
Raise up your glass to good King John

This has been giving me a lot of courage lately:

Lucky Man - The Verve

Happiness
More or less
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
Oh, my, my
Happiness
Coming and going
I watch you look at me
Watch my fever grow and
I know - just where I am

But how many corners do I have to turn?
How many times do I have to learn
All the love I have is in my mind?

But I'm a lucky man
With fire in my hands

Happiness
Something in my own place
I'm stood here naked
Smiling, I feel no disgrace
With who I am

Happiness
Coming and going
I watch you look at me
Watch my fever grow and
I know - just who I am

But how many corners do I have to turn?
How many times do I have to learn
All the love I have is in my mind?

I hope you understand
I hope you understand

Gotta love that'll never die

Happiness
More or less
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
Happiness
Coming and going
I watch you look at me
Watch my fever grow and
I know
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my

Gotta love that'll never die
Gotta love that'll never die
No, no
I'm a lucky man

It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my
