Love Her Madly Lyrics

Love Her Madly Song Chart

Doors guitarist Robby Krieger wrote this song on a 12-string guitar. It is about the numerous times his girlfriend (and later, wife), Lynn, threatened to leave him. "Every time we had an argument, she used to get pissed off and go out the door, and she'd slam the door so loud the house would shake," Krieger said.

Krieger, John Densmore, and Ray Manzarek recorded a new version with Bo Diddley for the 2000 Doors tribute album Stoned Immaculate.

This was the last album they recorded with Jim Morrison, who died shortly after it was released.

This was recorded in a very casual atmosphere. The musicians all played together, with no overdubs. They produced it themselves, which meant they could relax and make their own rules. The whole album was recorded in just two weeks.

Along with "Hello I Love You," "People Are Strange" and "Soul Kitchen," this was used in the movie Forrest Gump. (thanks, bob - Laguna Beach, CA)

The title is a twist on a phrase Duke Ellington popularized. At his concerts, he would say, "we love you madly."

The Cat with the Cream Lyrics

Sitting at the old kitchen table
Peace and health and dreams
Stretching out in the darkness
Mother's up the stairs with her ageing new boyfriend
Cathy's staying in to make sure nothing happens
All aboard the freak parade
I cover up my head and pray
I'm praying for the light
Down amongst the old city chambers
Men in frocks debate all the policy changes
Everybody bet on the boom and got busted
Everybody bet and in the government trusted
Grubby little red MP
Yellow flapping hopelessly

Tory like The Cat with the Cream
Tory like the cat with the cream
I studied you in history
I studied in the library
In days of old when knights were bold
They'd settle it with sword and shield
In days of old when knights were bold
It's settled by the king

Praying for a friend is contagious
Specially when it comes at the old kitchen table
Listening for the swoosh of his quickening paces
Watching for the smile on the bravest of faces
How I wish you'd read to me
s rich in swallows and trees
Get me though the night

Waiting at the old kitchen table
Listening for my code listening for my instructions
Surely now I'm here, I am destined for greatness
I want to be the Queen pulling kids out of rivers
All aboard the freak parade
I cover up my head and pray

Praying for the cat with the cream
Praying for the cat with the cream
I studied you in history
I studied in the library
In days of old when knights were bold
They'd settle it with sword and shield
In days of old when knights were bold
It's settled by the king
It's settled by the king
It's settled by the king
It's settled by the king

The Cat with the Cream Song Chart

This song is a take on modern politics through the eyes of a young woman. Belle & Sebastian vocalist and songwriter Stuart Murdoch explained to The Independent: "It was after the 2010 (UK) elections and I was thinking about how there was a massive crash and [yet] nothing had changed. So I wrote 'The Cat with the Cream', but I actually only started when I imagined myself as a younger person, what she thought of the political situation. If you can imagine a very naive character and what they feel about things, that translates very nicely to pop."

Murdoch recalled the story of the song to Drowned in Sound : "In the aftermath of the 2010 UK general election I thought to myself, 'one of these days I'm going to write a political song.' Or at least 'one of these I'm going to have to write down how I feel about current events.' And then I didn't do it."

"But I did get a picture in my head of a girl. She was sitting at a big old wooden table in a basement kitchen in an old house. She was alone, comfortable, just finished a big bowl of ice cream, pondering at that ponderous kind of age. And I wondered what she thought of politics and the whole situation. So I wrote the song through her and it turned into Cat With The Cream."

"It was a good thinking table, and for a person in dark times, it was also a good praying table, and we will forgive her if most of the praying she did was for herself."

"I guess, she was praying for someone bigger, braver, wiser to come along than the average 'leader' of the day. In the books she had read there was always a King."

If someone looks like the cat that got the cream, that person is very pleased with him or herself as they have achieved their objective.

Back in the 1950s it appears people were easily satisfied. In 1956 The Four Lads sung on "Standing On The Corner," a hit song from the 1956 musical The Most Happy Fella:

Brother you don't know a nicer occupation
Matter of fact, neither do I
Than standing on a corner watching all the girls
Watching all the girls, watching all the girls go by
I'm the cat that got the cream.
Haven't got a girl but I can dream
Haven't got a girl but I can wish
So I'll take me down to Main street
And that's where I select my imaginary dish

Pedestrian At Best Lyrics

I love you, I hate you, I'm on the fence, it all depends
Whether I'm up or down, I'm on the mend, transcending all reality
I like you, despise you, admire you
What are we gonna do when everything all falls through?
I must confess, I've made a mess of what should be a small success
But I digress, at least I've tried my very best, I guess
This, that, the other, why even bother?
It won't be with me on my deathbed, but I'll still be in your head

Put me on a pedestal and I'll only disappoint you
Tell me I'm exceptional, I promise to exploit you
Give me all your money, and I'll make some origami, honey
I think you're a joke, but I don't find you very funny

My internal monologue is saturated analog
It's scratched and drifting, I've become attached to the idea
It's all a shifting dream, bittersweet philosophy
I've got no idea how I even got here
I'm resentful, I'm having an existential time crisis
Want bliss, daylight savings won't fix this mess
Under-worked and over-sexed, I must express my disinterest
The rats are back inside my head, what would Freud have said?

Put me on a pedestal and I'll only disappoint you
Tell me I'm exceptional, I promise to exploit you
Give me all your money, and I'll make some origami, honey
I think you're a joke, but I don't find you very funny

I wanna wash out my head with turpentine, cyanide
I dislike this internal diatribe when I try to catch your eye
I hate seeing you cry in the kitchen
I don't know why it affects me like this
When you're not even mine to consider
Erroneous, harmonious, I'm hardly sanctimonious
Dirty clothes, I suppose we all outgrow ourselves
I'm a fake, I'm a phoney, I'm awake, I'm alone
I'm homely, I'm a Scorpio

Put me on a pedestal and I'll only disappoint you
Tell me I'm exceptional, I promise to exploit you
Give me all your money, and I'll make some origami, honey
I think you're a joke, but I don't find you very funny

Put me on a pedestal and I'll only disappoint you
Tell me I'm exceptional, I promise to exploit you
Give me all your money, and I'll make some origami, honey
I think you're a joke, but I don't find you very funny

This scathing cut finds Barnett flipping off the hype surrounding her music. She told Uncut the song is "about expectation and perceptions."

The song was released as the lead single from Sometimes I Just Sit And Think And Sometimes I Just Sit, which was recorded during the autumn of 2014 in an intense ten day session at Head Gap studios in Melbourne. The album title references Winnie The Pooh author AA Milne. Barnett explained to Uncut: "When I was a kid there was this poster at my grandma's house. We used to fly down or drive to Melbourne from Sydney to have Christmas with my grandma and grandpa and I always liked it. I was visiting her last year and I saw it again and wrote it down."

The music video finds Barnett playing an inept clown who doesn't know how to keep people pleased. The clip features cameos from various other members of the Melbourne music community including Davey Lane and Jen Cloher.

This was the last song Barnett wrote for Sometimes I Sit and Think, and Sometimes I Just Sit. She explained to Nothing But Hope and Passion : "It deals with the topic of perceptions, expectations and judgements, and carries a lot of frustration and anger. I was just frustrated with myself about being in the studio for so long, and I was going mental."

"I guess in this one I am really honest," Barnett added. "I just wrote down what I had in mind the last day in the studio, and one idea triggered another, so it might be a bit confusing actually."

Indian Summer Lyrics

Indian Summer Song Chart

This was one of the first songs The Doors recorded. They played it on a demo they recorded in 1965. They did not release it until 1970 because they didn't feel the recording quality was up to standard.

Indian Summer is an extended warm spell in Autumn.

This hypnotic piece was inspired by a car accident in the desert when Jim Morrison was four years old, and his family was on the way to New Mexico. A family of Native Americans were injured and possibly killed. Morrison was quoted as saying: "The souls of the ghosts of those dead Indians... were just running around freaking out, and just leaped into my soul. And they're still in there." This scene is portrayed at the beginning of Oliver Stone's movie The Doors. (thanks, chloe - st. louis, MO)

Even though this was one of the first songs they wrote, The Doors never played it live because they thought it would sound insignificant compared to "The End," an Oedipal opus that was a staple of their early live shows.

Come Together Lyrics

Here we are with our backs against the wall
We've got big city dreams
But we don't move from the asphalt
We run away from our own imagination
But at the same time we got this amazing fascination

We've got hopes on the horizon
We can't stop from climbing the mountain
We're sick and tired of keeping silent
We are, we are, we are,

We are gonna Come Together
We're gonna come together, now
We are gonna run together
We're gonna turn it upside down

'Cause with the smoke in the mirror
I can't see your face
So let's run to the fire escape
Come together
We're gonna come together, now

Who are they, with their so-called innovations
They hold on like they've found their own salvation
They shy away from the slightest alteration
But at the same time we got the same fascinations

We've got hopes on the horizon
We can't stop from climbing the mountain
We're sick and tired of keeping silent
We are, we are, we are,

We are gonna come together
We're gonna come together, now
We are gonna run together
We're gonna turn it upside down

'Cause with the smoke in the mirror
I can't see your face
So let's run to the fire escape
Come together
We're gonna come together, now

Just let go, it's a free fall
We're almost home, it's a free fall

We are gonna come together
We're gonna come together, now
We are gonna run together
We're gonna turn it upside down

We are gonna come together
We're gonna come together, now
We are gonna run together
We're gonna turn it upside down

'Cause with the smoke in the mirror
I can't see your face
So let's run to the fire escape
Come together
We're gonna come together, now

You make me wanna throw my pager out the window
Tell MCI to cut the phone calls
Break my lease so I can move
Cause you a Bug A Boo, a bug a boo
I wanna put your number on the call block
Have AOL make my email stop
Cause you a bug a boo
You buggin' what? You buggin' who? You buggin' me!
And don't you see it ain't cool

It's not hot that you be callin' me
Stressin' me pagin' my beeper
You're just non-stop
And it's not hot
That you be leavin' me messages
Every 10 minutes and then you stop by
When I first met you, you were cool
But it was game you had me fooled
'Cause 20 minutes after I gave you my number
You already had my mailbox full

(So what you bought a pair of shoes)
(What now I guess you think I owe you)
(You don't have to call as much as you do)
(I'd give em back to be through with you)
(And so what my momma likes you)
(What now I guess you think I will too)
(Even if the pope he said he liked you too)
I don't really care cause you're a bug a boo

You make me wanna throw my pager out the window
Tell MCI to cut the phone calls

'Cause you a bug a boo, a bug a boo
I wanna put your number on the call block

You buggin' what? You buggin' who? You buggin' me!
And don't you see it ain't cool

It's not hot
That when I'm blockin' your phone number
You call me from over your best friends house
And it's not hot
That I can't even go out with my girlfriends
Without you trackin' me down
You need to chill out with that mess
'Cause you can't keep havin' me stressed
'Cause every time my phone rings it seems to be you
And I'm prayin' that it is someone else

(So what you bought a pair of shoes)
(What now I guess you think I owe you)
(You don't have to call as much as you do)
(I'd give em back to be through with you)
(And so what my momma likes you)
(What now I guess you think I will too)
(Even if the pope he said he liked you too)
I don't give a damn 'cause you're a bug a boo

You make me wanna throw my pager out the window

When you show up at my door you buggin' me
When you open up your mouth you buggin' me
Every time i see your face you're buggin' me

Bug A Boo Song Chart

A Bug-A-Boo is a pest, someone who won't leave you alone. It can be about a man or a woman.

This was written by Kandi Burruss, who also wrote "Bills, Bills, Bills" for Destiny's Child and "No Scrubs" for TLC. She was a member of the group Xscape.

When this was released, it popularized yet another term for an undesirable man. Between Destiny's Child and TLC, the terms "Scrub," "Buster," and "Bug A Boo" all came to describe these unfortunate guys.

Kelly Rowland admitted in a 2008 interview with Pop Justice that she thinks this is the worst Destiny's Child song. She admitted: "It annoys me so much now, some of the stuff in that song makes me feel like I'm 17 years old, especially the line 'So what? You bought a pair of shoes' - it's such a bad line to have to sing in concert. 'You bought a pair of shoes'? What terrible lyrics. At the time we were so into it but now - what on earth were we thinking?"

Show Me Love Song Chart

This self-plea to be kinder is a song from Hundred Waters' second album, The Moon Rang Like a Bell. The record was inspired by the long periods of time the Floridian synth-pop quartet were on the road promoting their first album.

This song came to the attention of millions viewers when it was used in Coca Cola's #MakeItHappy Super Bowl XLIX commercial. The ad suggested a novel solution to online negativity: Spill some Coke onto your computer.

Hundred Waters used their high-profile placement to set up a partnership with BitTorrent that raised money for an anti-bullying organization. The band said:

"When Coca-Cola asked to use our song for an ad campaign promoting positivity online in the face of the internet's pervasive negativity, we decided to use the opportunity to help defeat what we see as a root cause of bullying: low self-esteem and lack of strong relationships."

In high school, (vocalist) Nicole mentored in a program called Big Brothers Big Sisters, a non-profit that provides powerful, enduring mentoring relationships to children without positive adult figures in their lives. We are giving this bundle away in exchange for a donation of any amount to Big Brothers Big Sisters. Here is an easy way to benefit others by simply enjoying music. We realize bullying is a complicated issue with no easy answer. We hope, however, to change the lives of a few who, through circumstances outside their control, either become bullies or their victims."

"Waiting For The Sun" is the title of The Doors third album, and they tried to record it in those sessions, but didn't like how it came out. They brought it back 2 years later for their fifth album, Morrison Hotel.

This is about the quest for the American Dream, which is never attained.

Barney Hoskyns used this as the title of a book about the music scene in Los Angeles.

After their fourth album, The Soft Parade, was criticized for being too commercial, The Doors returned to their roots on this, which resulted in more simple songs based on The Blues.

I wanna rock with Somebody
I wanna take shots with somebody
I wanna leave with somebody
And we ain't gonna tell nobody, we ain't gonna tell nobody

Walk in, everybody knows what's good
But some gonna hate, what's new?
We just do our thing, no time to waste
Always play it cool

And at the end of the night when the lights go out
Will we turn down? Oh no we won't
(We ain't never turnin' down, we ain't never turnin' down)
And when they try to make us leave
We turn and say we never going home
(And you know just what I wanna do)

I wanna rock with somebody
I wanna take shots with somebody
I wanna leave with somebody
And we ain't gotta tell nobody, we ain't gotta tell nobody

Walk in, everybody know what's good
We're our only plug
Bring us everything we think we need
Tonight is goin' up
Tonight is goin' up

And at the end of the night when the lights go out
Will we turn down? Oh no we won't
(We ain't never turnin' down, we ain't never turnin' down)
And when they try to make us leave
We turn and say we never going home
(And you know just what I wanna do)

I wanna rock with somebody
I wanna take shots with somebody
I wanna leave with somebody
And we ain't gotta tell nobody, we ain't gotta tell nobody

In the club like what
We be in the party in the club like what
And the club like
We be in the city going dumb like what
In the club like what
We be in the party in the club like what
We be in the city going dumb like what
We be in the party in the club like what

And at the end of the night when the lights go out
Will we turn down? Oh no we won't
(We ain't never turnin' down, we ain't never turnin' down)
And when they try to make us leave
We turn and say we never going home
(And you know just what I wanna do)

I wanna rock with somebody
I wanna take shots with somebody
I wanna leave with somebody
And we ain't gotta tell nobody, we ain't gotta tell nobody

Born and raised in Amsterdam, Holland, Natalie La Rose moved to Los Angeles to pursue her dreams of becoming a singer and dancer at the age of 20. In 2013 she inked a deal with Flo Rida's International Music Group (I.M.G.) label, two years after she'd told the rapper at an ESPY Awards after-party that she was going to work with him one day.

This is La Rose's debut single. The song is a reworking of Whitney Houston's 1987 chart topper "I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me)" with updated lyrics that celebrate a club-inspired romance. "It's a fun and funky song," remarked La Rose. "It's feel-good, and it reminds me of summertime. I love to be around people, have a great time, and dance. That's what it stands for."

The song features Jeremih who croons the hook. La Rose explained: "While we were recording Jeremih happened to be in Miami for a Big Dreams for Kids Back to School Event and Flo invited him to the studio to sing on it. He nailed it on the first take!"

Jeremih recorded his vocals around the time he was in the Hot 100 with his own retooling of a classic late 20th century tune. The R&B vocalist's "Don't Tell 'Em" was a reworking of Snap!'s "Rhythm Is A Dancer."

Asked by Billboard magazine what attracted her to Whitney Houston's hit tune, La Rose replied: "I'm a huge fan of '80s music and grew up listening to that. I heard this beat and told Flo Rida we should write to it. He came up with 'I wanna dance with somebody,' and we switched up the lyrics a little to make it more nowadays. But eventually we found out the beat wasn't available, so we had to create a new one."

"It took nine different versions - we were so married to the other beat, so it was hard to get used to. Flo Rida has a great ear. I wouldn't say I take my sound from him, but definitely the work ethic."

The background vocals that go "shots, shots, shots, shots..." is copped from the song "Shots" by LMFAO featuring Lil Jon.
