Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
It's a bit early in the midnight hour for me
To go through all the things that I wanna be
I don't believe in everything I see
You know I'm blind so why d'you disagree?
Take me away
'Cause I just don't wanna stay
And the lies you make me say
Are getting deeper every day
These are crazy days but they make me shine
Time keeps rolling by
All around the world
You've gotta spread the word
Tell 'em what you've heard
We're gonna make a better day
All around the world
You've gotta spread the word
Tell 'em what you've heard
You know it's gonna be okay
Whatcha gonna do when the walls come fallin' down?
You never move, you never make a sound
Where you gonna swim with the riches that you found?
You're lost at sea, well I hope that you drown
Take me away
'Cause I just don't wanna stay
And the lies you make me say
Are getting deeper every day
These are crazy days but they make me shine
Time keeps rolling by
All around the world
You've gotta spread the word
Tell 'em what you heard
We're gonna make a better day

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."

Blue
Ed Sheeran
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.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
I think the song drags on a bit near the end, but I love the verses
this song looks extremely long here! maybe 'cause they wrote
You know it's gonna be okay It's gonna be okay It's gonna be okay It's gonna be okay It's gonna be okay All around the world you gotta spread the word Tell them what you heard You're gonna make a better day Cos all around the world you gotta spread the word Tell them what you heard You know it's gonna be okay All around the world you gotta spread the word Tell them what you heard You're gonna make a better day All around the world you gotta spread the word Tell them what you heard You know it's gonna be okay And I know what I know What I know what I know Yeah I know what I know It's gonna be okay And I know what I know What I know what I know Yeah I know what I know It's gonna be okay Yeah I know what I know What I know what I know Yeah I know what I know It's gonna be okay Yeah I know what I know And I know what I know Yeah I know what I know Please don't cry never say die So please don't cry never say die Please don't cry never say die So please don't cry never say die So please don't cry never say die So please don't cry never say die So please don't cry never say die
all the times it's sung :) anyway.. to me? it reminds me to my friends, times of joy, spread our word and do all we feel like doing :) it's an awesome song.
hey stairway to heaven was over 7 minutes long, who cares really this is one of the best songs ever, it makes me feel happy, and all its trying to say is for the world to start doing somthing positive and stop poluting, killing and start making the world a better place and spreading the word means just doing things step by step.
@xaiver_888 dude, I dont think this song is quite up there with "stairway to heaven"
Definitely Oasis' version of "All You Need is Love". So damn good though both times the songs gets so heavy and dense before it hits the 'All Around the World" chorus. Just brilliant.
Love the song, despise the fact AT&T's used it.
love this song. Noel Gallagher is a genius. He will go down in music history.
Proper summer tune for me. Blasting this out, beer in hand, laying in the sun. Perfect.
Cant believe no ones commented on this truely great song. It's def. one of their best. It's nine and a half minutes long but when i listen to it, time just seems to fly by. Makes me believe 'It's gonna be okay'.
This is a great song just like fortune said it's nine and a half minutes long but time just seems to fly by. I love this song excellent in every way. :)
Love the first two lines: "It's a bit early in the midnight hour for me, to go through all the things that I want to be." Yet another Oasis song that shows what a brilliant songwriter Noel is.
This song leaves you feeling on top of the world and it's been compared to Hey Jude because of the continuing Beatles/Oasis comparisons! Noel will be delighted that a song he wrote has once again been compared to The Beatles! Amazing!!
