This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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."
No Surprises
Radiohead
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
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/
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
It's about his dick!
Way down inside, woman you need dick. I'm gonna give you every inch of my dick. Gotta whole lot of dick gotta whole lot of dick gotta whole lot of dick
wayyyyyyy down insiiiiiiide
WOMAN!
Youuuuuuu neeeeeed-a DIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
i agree that this song is completely about wanting to or about to making love to somebody. but i don't see why it's about a "whole lotta dick." other than the sexy line "every inch of my love," i do not see any reference to the dick itself. whole lotta SEX is how i see it.
Your so right.
@SnobbySnobberson irs plants MO.. i worked witha girl that hooked up with him ,lucky 4 me her husband was my mortal enemy, i didnt use that fact much,ya sure
@SnobbySnobberson You got my up vote six years later. Sometimes you gotta call it straight.
I think this is about the Cold War when Reagen... HAHA. No i'm just kidding, it's about SEX.
"Way, way down inside, I'm gonna give you my love, ,I'm gonna give you EVERY INCH OF MY LOVE"
just think.
Chuck Klosterman asked Robert Plant in an interview why he says "I'm gonna give you every inch of my love" when he is British and therefore uses the metric system...lol
Probably one of my favorite songs ever... next time you're feeling down, try playing this song full blast while you drive with all the windows down... wail along! It just makes you feel so good
fuck yeah!
@ladykalilah It does not matter how i'm feeling if i put this on i just grit my teeth an soak in every last bit.
@ladykalilah best way to listen to this song. Couldn’t agree with you more mah boy!!
i think this song is about checking out that really hot hot girl that you know you got no shot at.....but if you had a chance with her.....she'd love getting fucked by you. its when you see that bitch that you would love to nail, but can't get it, cause she's not even gona give you a shot at it.......yeah man
This song is obviously Robert Plant boasting about the size of his cock.
lalalayousangtome is wrong. the "backdoor man" statement comes from another Willie Dixon song (i hope you know Willie Dixon mainly wrote this song) that the Doors happened to do. This has nothing to do with the Doors directly. Anyway, a backdoor man is a man who takes advantage of a cuckhold's wife.
Jimmy Page fucks me with this song.
@hippie-po-ruski It's like sex for your ears & mind.
You people are stupid, a "back door man" means the guy the wife cheats on with. The husband leaves for work through the front door and the cheatin dude goes in through the back door. That saying's been around for a while. man Led Zep are the best band in the universe!
Page's best guitar solo here. Earth shattering.
