Stayin' Alive Lyrics

Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk
I'm a woman's man: no time to talk
Music loud and women warm, I've been kicked around
Since I was born
And now it's all right, it's OK
And you may look the other way
We can try to understand
The New York Times' effect on man

Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother
You're Stayin' Alive, stayin' alive
Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin'
And we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive

Well now, I get low and I get high
And if I can't get either, I really try
Got the wings of heaven on my shoes
I'm a dancin' man and I just can't lose
You know it's all right, it's ok
I'll live to see another day
We can try to understand
The New York Times' effect on man

Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother
You're stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin'
And we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive

Life goin' nowhere, somebody help me
Somebody help me, yeah
Life goin' nowhere, somebody help me, yeah

Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk
I'm a woman's man: no time to talk
Music loud and women warm
I've been kicked around since I was born
And now it's all right, it's ok
And you may look the other way
We can try to understand
The New York Times' effect on man

Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother
You're stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin'
And we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive

Life goin' nowhere, somebody help me
Somebody help me, yeah
Life goin' nowhere, somebody help me, yeah
I'm stayin' alive

Stayin' Alive

This plays over the opening credits of the 1977 movie Saturday Night Fever while John Travolta struts through the streets of New York City. The movie has come to represent the Disco era, and has made this the song most associated with Disco. The Bee Gees had been singing in a high-falsetto style since their 1975 hit "Jive Talkin'," which was also on the soundtrack, but they were very popular as a vocal harmony group in the late '60s and early '70s. Their contributions to Saturday Night Fever brought them huge success, but marked them as Disco singers.

In a 1989 interview with Q magazine, they talked about this stigma and why they didn't deserve it. "We were not disco," Robin Gibb said. "People who emulated us were disco. All you heard on the radio was that dooo! dooo! syn-drum sound. We never had a syn-drum on one of our records!"

This was one of five songs the Bee Gees wrote specifically for Saturday Night Fever. Like the film, the song is about much more than dancing and having a good time. It deals with struggle and aspiration; making your way in the world even after you've been kicked around. John Travolta's character in the movie is a young man working a dead-end job who feels alienated by his parents. Dancing is his form of expression, and weekends are his time to let loose.

Robert Stigwood, who produced Saturday Night Fever, is the one who asked The Bee Gees to write music for the film. Stigwood got the idea for the film from a New York Magazine article about the Brooklyn club scene. This may explain the rather random line in the song, "We can try to understand the New York Times' effect on man."

Robert Stigwood asked for a song called "Saturday Night," but the Bee Gees wanted nothing to do with that title, since many other songs, including a very popular one by the Bay City Rollers, had that name. Stigwood objected when he's heard the song was called "Stayin' Alive," but the group told him that if he didn't like it, they would just use the song on their own album.

This was the second of four US #1 hits from the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack, following "How Deep Is Your Love," which was released ahead of the film, which hit theaters December 14, 1977. "Stayin' Alive" was released one day before the movie, but many theatergoers had already heard the song in trailers for the film. It quickly climbed the charts, reaching the top spot on February 4, 1978 and staying there for four weeks.

The soundtrack was an unqualified success, winning the Grammy Award for Album of the Year and becoming the best-selling album ever until it was dethroned by Michael Jackson's Thriller. It remained the best-selling soundtrack of all time until it was surpassed by the soundtrack to The Bodyguard.

The Bee Gees recorded this in a French studio called the Chateau D'Herouville. Later, the group learned that many porno films were shot in those studios.

In 1983, The Bee Gees recorded songs for a sequel to Saturday Night Fever that was called Staying Alive. It was directed by Sylvester Stallone, and while it was a critical flop, it did very well at the box office, grossing about $64 million on a budget of only $8 million. The film came years after Disco had faded, and was released at a time when both John Travolta and The Bee Gees were at career ebbs. In 1987, The Bee Gees returned with a UK #1 hit called "You Win Again," while John Travolta stayed in a career funk until the 1989 movie Look Who's Talking. (We're kidding. His next good movie was actually Pulp Fiction in 1994.)

The set of Staying Alive was where Richard Marx , who was working on the soundtrack, first met Cynthia Rhodes, who was the female lead in the film. The couple were married in 1989; Marx wrote the song "Now And Forever" about her. (Thanks to Gary Ugarek)

Responding to a question about his song in a 1988 issue of Rolling Stone, the Gibb brothers stated: "We'd like to dress it up in a white suit and set it on fire."

The were referring to the deleterious effect the song had on their career and image.

This won a Grammy for Best Arrangement For Voices.

The Italian Dance group Eiffel 65 used the chorus from this in their song "Voglia Dance All Night." In 1995, the British electronic group N-Trance covered the song, taking it to #2 in the UK. Their version featured vocals by Viveen Wray and former KLF rapper Ricardo Da Force. (thanks, Mads - Sønderborg, Denmark)

A team from the University of Illinois medical school suggested that this would be an ideal song to listen to on an iPod while performing chest compressions on someone who has just suffered a heart attack. The American Heart Association has stated that the optimum tempo at which to perform CPR on someone who has just suffered a heart attack is 100 beats a minute. The research team highlighted this song as, at 103 beats per minute, it has almost the perfect rhythm to help jump-start a stopped heart. It happens that "Another One Bites The Dust" has a similar beat, but it was agreed that the Queen song doesn't seem quite as appropriate.

Dweezil Zappa recorded this for his album Confessions with Ozzy Osbourne on lead vocals. Ozzy's record company didn't want it released, so Donny Osmond's vocals were used instead. The Ozzy version can be found on some bootlegs.

Capital Cities recorded a cover of this song that they released online in 2013. Sebu Simonian of the duo told us: "The classic Bee Gees version of that song is universally loved and enjoyed, but I feel like it's such a great song that it can easily be performed in different ways and impart a different kind of emotion. And to our surprise, it was never really covered in a different way. When we cover songs, we like to pick songs that are great and timeless, but haven't really been covered much or haven't been covered in a new way. So that's what we decided to do with this one - give it a different emotional impact."

Robert Hays and Julie Hagerty dance to this song in a bar in the 1980 film Airplane!. (thanks, Ricky - Los Angeles, CA)

The Bee Gees were well aware that they were creating a heart-thumping rhythm. "We thought when we were writing it that we should emulate the human heart," Robin Gibb explained in Daniel Rachel's The Art of Noise: Conversations with Great Songwriters. "We got Blue Weaver who was the keyboard player at the time to lie on the floor and put electrodes on his heart and put it through the control room. Then we got the drummer to play the heartbeat. We were the first people in the world to do a drum loop based on that."

You're My Star

Tank told The Boombox he recorded the song his own way rather than concentrating about what's going on in current R&B. He explained: "I wasn't relating it to anything outside of, it would be cool to make a song on this Michael Jackson bass line because it would be kind of classic but a new song."

"When we were finally doing it, adding the horns and all of these things, and what's working out there, we were like, 'This could be it,' he continued. "It's not the trend now. They're not signing R&B artists now but this could very well be the future. For me, it leads to my strengths. I'm a musician. I'm a real singer, a songwriter with depth and imagination. I'm a real producer and I'm happier doing that. This is what I do well. For me, it was gonna be the song either way."

Approaching Pavonis Mons

Pavonis Mons is a volcano on the surface of Mars. That may not seem like much, but Mars contains the largest volcanoes in the solar system. It is very difficult to approach Pavonis Mons by balloon, as Mars has a very thin atmosphere. NASA projects even involve flying a robotic balloon probe to explore rough terrain like Valles Marineris. So, please, do not try this at home.

This won the Grammy for Best Rock Instrumental Performance. After nearly 20 years in existence, it was the Flaming Lips' first Grammy.

The Flaming Lips are known for some rather lengthy song titles including, but not limited to, "Five-Stop Mother Superior Rain," "Psychiatric Exploration of the Fetus with Needles," "Guy Who Got a Headache and Accidentally Saves the World," and "One Million Billionth of a Millisecond on a Sunday Morning."

Breaking The Habit Lyrics

Memories consume like opening the wounds
I'm picking me apart again
You all assume
I'm safe here in my room
Unless I try to start again
I don't want to be the one the battles always choose
'cause inside I realize that I'm the one confused

I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how I got this way
I know it's not alright
So I'm Breaking The Habit
I'm breaking the habit tonight

Clutching my cure
I tightly lock the door
I try to catch my breath again
I hurt much more than any time before
I have no options left again
I don't want to be the one the battles always choose
'cause inside I realize that I'm the one confused

I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how I got this way
I'll never be alright
So I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit tonight

I'll paint it on the walls
'cause I'm the one at fault
I'll never fight again
And this is how it ends

I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
But now I have some clarity to show you what I mean
I don't know how I got this way
I'll never be alright
So I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit tonight

Breaking The Habit

This is about someone who has the tendency to do things to hurt himself physically and mentally. "You all assume I'm safe here in my room unless I try to start again" - this means he spends a lot of time in his room, where everyone thinks he can't do anything to hurt himself, but little do they know that he could at any time start hurting himself without them knowing. He regrets all the things he has done or had done to him in the past and he constantly picks himself apart for it. "I don't wanna be the one the battles always choose cause inside I realize I'm the one confused," is saying he gets a lot of problems thrown at him and he doesn't understand why this always seems to happen to him. (thanks, Elise - guelph, Canada)

More lyric analysis:
"Clutching my cure, I tightly lock the door" - The cure for emotional pain is to cause physical pain.
"You all assume I'm safe here in my room, unless I try to start again" - That is showing that the person prefers solitude, and although others think he's safest by himself, it's really when he's worst off, because he will start his self harm all over again. Also, he doesn't seem to understand his pain and all he wants is for it to go away, but the only known way for it to go away is to cause more. It's a vicious cycle. (thanks, Kalee - Wichita, KS)

Mike Shinoda had been trying to write a song around this lyrical idea for for over five years but nothing seemed to work. While the album was being put together, Mike began working on an interlude, crossing a digitally manipulated beat with strings and piano. Brad and Joe suggested that Mike make the small interlude into a whole song. The piece was extended to three minutes and sixteen seconds and went under the name "Drawing." When Mike took it home to write lyrics, it only took him less than 2 hours to get the song that he was trying to write for years. With some finishing touches of live piano and live strings, the song was finally complete - six years in the making. (thanks, Nick - Paramus, NJ)

Shinoda said this was inspired by the multitudes of fans who have expressed to the band how their music has helped them. Whether it be with depression, drugs, low self-esteem, traumas... or anything really. It's very much about the reciprocity between the band and the fans.

This won the Viewer's Choice award at the MTV Video Music awards. The video was animated by the same people who worked on the movie Kill Bill. (thanks, Allie - Santa Rosa, CA, for above 2)

Mike Shinoda on shoutweb.com : "This was going to be an instrumental track that was 10 minutes long. The guys convinced me to turn it into a full song. I'm proud of this song in a lot of ways. I put a lot of work into it. I just think it's really powerful. Chester's performance is one of his best. Lyrically, it's kind of just about getting away from the parts of you that you do not like. It goes into great deal about that type of situation. The things about our lyrics in general is that we spend so much time on them that there is no way I can tell you in conversation any better than the actual lyrics. If I sit here and think up something, that's an off-the-top-of-my-head summary of what those lyrics are about whereas those lyrics took five years to do. So those lyrics are the most accurate depiction of what that's about, not what I can tell you."

Fuck bein' on some chill shit

If I ain't the greatest then I'm headed for it
That mean I'm way up
The 6 ain't friendly but it's where I lay up
This shit a mothafuckin' lay up

All up on TV, I thought it'd make me richer

So now I'm all in Niko's basement puttin' work in on the phones
Either that or drive to money mart to make the pickups
Man it's 2008, I'm tryna paint the picture
Comeback Season in the works and now I'm thinkin' bigger

Gotta watch that shit, don't want to make him sicker

Oh Lord, got a whole lot to show for it

Since my dad used to tell me he was comin' to the house to get me

Whole squad on that real shit

The other night, Lavish Lee told me that I'm all these people listen to
She said they love me unconditional
Imagine how I feel to watch another nigga at the top
You know that if it wasn't you, you would be dissin' you, dawg
Damn, okay, from that perspective
I see what you're talkin' 'bout, no way to soften that
'Cause me, I was tryna find out where I lost 'em at
But maybe I ain't lose 'em at all
Maybe I keep movin' forward and they're just stagnant, they ain't movin' at all
But when they need a favor, who do they call?
Maybe I'm searchin' for the problems, askin' what was said and who was involved
Too focused on people's feedback and provin' 'em wrong
They say the shoe can always fit, no matter whose foot it's on
These days feel like I'm squeezin' in 'em
Whoever wore 'em before just wasn't thinkin' big enough
I'm 'bout to leave 'em with 'em
'Cause if I run in the game in these, man the seams are splittin'
No pun intended but they're smellin' defeat in the air
Headed where nobody took it, who meetin' me there?
They tell him that he's talkin' crazy but he doesn't care
Bein' humble don't work as well as bein' aware
Listen up, boy, you're better off eavesdroppin'
We already got spring 2015 poppin'
PND droppin', Reps-up P droppin'
Majid Jordan droppin', OB droppin', not to mention me droppin'
Feel like we paid the refs off, man we fixed the game
Me and Noel been at it before Twitter names
Yeah, been on the move like the lease is up
And I can't even name one person that's keepin' up
Damn, fuck how it was in the past tense
Ask yourself, how do we match up now?
'Cause I'm only 27 and I'm only gettin' better
If I haven't passed you yet, watch me catch up now, forreal

Could it be the way that I'll catch up
Could it be the way that I'll catch up
Could it be the way that I'll catch up
Could it be the way that I'll catch up
Could it be the way that I'll catch up
Could it be the way that I'll catch up
Could it be the way that I'll catch up
Could it be the way that I'll catch up
Could it be the way that I'll catch up

0 to 100/ The Catch Up

Drake dropped this summer jam on June 1, 2014. The head-nodding banger features six minutes of braggadocious rhymes as the Toronto MC boasts of going from 0 to 100 quickly in the rap game (associating it to a car's acceleration).

The song was produced by Drake's in-house collaborators Boi-1da and Noah "40" Shebib, with Paul Jefferies (aka Nineteen85).

The second half of the song features ethereal sampled vocals by James Blake. The pair previously partnered when the British singer/songwriter remixed Drake's "Come Thru."

This was the cause of a fight arising from Diddy accusing Drake of stealing Boi-1da's "0 to 100" beat. According to TMZ.com the Bad Boy founder was given the instrumental first, but he sat on the vocals, so Drizzy released the song without the hip-hop legend. Diddy confronted the Toronto MC at DJ Khaled's Miami birthday party and punched him in the shoulder, which resulted in Drake requiring hospital treatment.

Flight Recorder From Viking 7 Lyrics

Space is colder
Than the air in the mountains
Where I come from
The air in the mountains
Where I come from

For years I drifted
Further and further
Into the unknown
Further and further
Into the unknown

And I wonder
Where have you gone
And I wonder
What have you done?
What have you done?

Space is older
Than the air moving in and out
Of your lungs
The air moving in and out
Of your lungs

For years I've drifted
The math of a divinity
That goes on and on
The math of a divinity
That goes on and on

And I wonder
Where have you gone?
And I wonder
What have you done?
What have you done?

There Goes My Baby Lyrics

She came from nowhere and she stole my soul
Her love was criminal
I finally found what I was looking for
Now I can't let it go

We break up, to make up
Yeah you got me spinning like a yo yo yo
But I know that you know, yeah
That girl you will always be mine

Hey!

There Goes My Baby
Whoa
Hey hey baby come back to me

Hey!

There goes my baby
Whoa
Hey hey baby come back to me, back to me

I get so high when she go down down low
She work it nice and slow

We going round and round and back and forth
Can't take it anymore

We break up, to make up
You got me spinning like a yo yo yo

But I know that you know
That girl you will always be mine

Hey!

There goes my baby
Whoa
Hey hey baby come back to me

Hey!

Whoa
Hey hey baby come back to me, back, back to me

There goes my baby
My wholesome lady
Hold me down if my whole world went crazy
That' s what she spoke
Just what she said
Now that's a joke
That talk is dead
Know I got to get over the love I had
The door I keep it open just in case she come back
Can't deal with the emotions to the point I'm sad
And I know my hearts broken but I've got so attached
Baby come back I won't get no sleep
She more than I want and all that I need
Locked up my heart and threw away the key so
And when my baby come back I'm crossing my T's dotting my I's
And now I can't eat
Out of my mind
And that's how it's gonna be so, so

Hey!

There goes my baby
Whoa
Hey hey baby come back to me

Hey!

There goes my baby
Whoa
Hey hey baby come back to me, back, back to me

There goes my baby
Whoa
Hey hey baby come back to me

Hey!

There goes my baby
Whoa
Hey hey baby come back to me, back, back to me

Always said you were a Youthquaker, Edie
A stormy little world shaker
Warhol's darling queen, Edie
An angel with a broken wing

The dogs lay at your feet, Edie
We caressed you cheek
Stars wrapped in your hair, Edie
Life without a care
But your not there
Your never there

Caught up in an endless scene
Paradise a shattered dream
Why'd all the shit you took, Edie
Your innocence dripped blood, sweet child

Sweet little sugar talker
Paradise dream stealer
Warhol's Darling queen, Edie
Innocence dripped blood, sweet child

Why did you kiss the world goodbye
Ciao Baby
Don't you know paradise takes time
It takes time, but your not there
Fade away now
But your not there

Edie (Ciao Baby)

This is about Edie Sedgwick, a socialite who formed part of the artist Andy Warhol's Factory scene in New York in the '60s. Sedgwick featured in several Warhol films, including Poor Little Rich Girl and Beauty No. 2. Her final movie role was as Susan Superstar in Ciao! Manhattan, which was written and directed by John Palmer and David Weisman. This song takes the "Ciao Baby" part of its title from this film.

Sedgwick lived a troubled life that was plagued by mental health issues and drug addictions. In 1971, Sedgwick died of an overdose. She was 28 years old. The film, Factory Girl, starring Sienna Miller, is about Sedgwick.

The Cult's front man, Ian Astubury, became interested in Sedgwick while the band were recording their Electric album in New York: "It was kinda like I was really interested in Warhol's scene, The Velvet Underground [who Warhol managed between 1965-1967], and really interested in Edie Sedgwick and just was compelled to write something about it." Guitarist, Billy Duffy added: "Just being in New York you can get wrapped up in it. It's a very special place. That's just basically what the songs about. It's not really about her particularly, it's her used as an example."

Sedgwick was quite a muse: she had a brief affair with Bob Dylan and his song "Just Like A Woman" is reportedly about her.

Jungle Lyrics

Jungle

This soulful electro-rocker is a collaboration between the British blues, rock and folk musician Jamie N Commons and the Brooklyn-based four-piece X Ambassadors, who appeared on Eminem's The Marshall Mathers LP 2 bonus track "Wicked Ways."

Both acts are signed to Alex Da Kid's KIDinaKORNER label, a subsidiary of Interscope and it was Alex Da Kid himself who produced the track.

The song soundtracks "The Game Before the Game," a promotional commercial for Beats by Dre's Solo2 headphones and the World Cup, which shows the pre-game rituals for various athletes and celebrities. According to Omar Johnson, Beats' chief marketing officer, they originally had other plans. "We had a really huge track with from a really huge artist," he explained to Billboard magazine. "The moment we heard this song, we literally said 'nope, that's the right song.'"

The song was previously used in the trailer for the movie Welcome to Yesterday and in a clip for Season 2 of the TV series Orange is the New Black.

Alex Da Kid explained to Billboard magazine that his intention for the track was to inspire the less-prosperous and the disadvantaged: "It was my goal to write and produce an anthemic song that would resonate with anyone that has grown up in or been around underprivileged surroundings," he said.

Co-directed by Emile Rafael (Katy B's "Got Paid") and Alex Da Kid, the song's music video highlights some of the various Los Angeles subcultures.

Jay-Z jumped on a rock-heavy remix, which debuted during game 5 of the NBA Finals on June 15, 2014. It was made available afterwards exclusively for Beats subscribers.

Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God) Lyrics

It doesn't hurt me
Do you wanna feel how it feels?
Do you wanna know, know that it doesn't hurt me?
Do you wanna hear about the deal that I'm making?
You
It's you and me

And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that building
See if I only could, oh

You don't wanna hurt me
But see how deep the bullet lies
Unaware I'm tearing you asunder
Oh, there is thunder in our hearts

Is there so much hate for the ones we love?
Well tell me, we both matter, don't we?
You
It's you and me
It's you and me won't be unhappy

And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that building
Say, if I only could, oh

You
It's you and me
It's you and me won't be unhappy

Oh c'mon, baby, c'mon darling
Let me steal this moment from you now.
C'mon, angel, c'mon, c'mon, darling
Let's exchange the experience, oh

And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
I'd be running up that road
Be running up that hill
With no problems

See and if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
With no problems

So if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
I'd be running up that road
Be running up that hill
With no problems

So if I only could
Be running up that hill
With no problems

If I only could, I'd be running up that hill
If I only could, I'd be running up that hill

Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God)

This song is about making a deal with God to swap lives with another person.

Bush wrote this with the title "Deal With God." Her label made her change it because they didn't think radio stations would play a song with "God" in the title. Bush still regrets letting them rename her song, but her previous album didn't do very well and she wanted to make sure this got airplay.

Bush's record company wanted to release "Cloudbusting" as the first single, but Kate convinced them to release this instead. Since they had already renamed her song, it was considered a compromise.

This was Bush's biggest hit in the US. She is very popular in the UK, but remains mostly unknown in America.

A version by British band Placebo was recorded for their 2007 Covers album. It entered the UK singles chart in January 2010 as a result of its use in the theatrical trailer for the feature film Daybreakers.

A new version of the song, subtitled '2012 Remix', reached the top 10 of the UK singles chart in August 2012. The track was transposed down a semitone to fit Bush's current lower vocal range and was premiered during the 2012 London Olympics closing ceremony. Bush did not appear in person, but the recording was featured in a crucial section after the entry of athletes.

Jubel Lyrics

Save me, save me, save me

Save me

One, two, three, four
One, two, three, four

You think I don't laugh
Oh, do things I can like so
Why are we losing time?

I don't want to get up oh
Bring me what I need so
Why are we losing time?

It's like I've seen the light but you have never known

Save me

Don't Sleep In The Subway Lyrics

You wander around on your own little cloud
When you don't see the why or the wherefore
You walk out on me when we both disagree
'Cause to reason is not what you care for

I've heard it all a million time before
Take off your coat, my love, and close the door

Don't Sleep In The Subway, darlin'
Don't stand in the pouring rain
Don't sleep in the subway, darlin'
The night is long
Forget your foolish pride
Nothing's wrong
Now you're beside me again

You try to be smart, then you take it to heart
'Cause it hurts when your ego is deflated
You don't realize that it's all compromise
And the problems are so overrated

Goodbye means nothing when it's all for show
So why pretend you've somewhere else to go

Don't sleep in the subway, darlin'
Don't stand in the pouring rain
Don't sleep in the subway, darlin'
The night is long
Forget your foolish pride
Nothing's wrong
Now you're beside me again

Don't sleep in the subway, darlin'...

Don't Sleep In The Subway

This is a tale of a couple, who like many, have lots of disagreements. The man tends to retreat into his own little world instead of engaging the issue. When threatens to walk out on her, the woman tells him that it's better to come up with a solution and make up. When she tells him, "don't sleep in the subway," she is asking him to spend the night with her instead of leaving.

Petula Clark's producer/songwriter Tony Hatch co-wrote this song with his wife Jackie Trent. Of all the songs that Hatch has written or co-written, this song is Clark's favorite. When we asked her about the song in our 2013 interview , she said, "It's a bit of a mystery to me, the song. But it's got to be one of my favorites, though I'm not quite sure what it's about. It doesn't matter."

Petula added that when she starred opposite Fred Astaire in the 1968 movie Finian's Rainbow, he asked her what this song was about, and she didn't have a good answer.

The entire song is actually a combination of three different songs which Tony Hatch had written but did not complete. The segments of the unfinished songs were molded into one to create one song.

This was Petula Clark's last hit to reach the Top 10 in the States. (thanks, Jerro - New Alexandria, PA, for all above)

The "subway" in the song title is not a mode of transportation, but refers to the underground passages found throughout London to enable pedestrians to cross busy intersections with heavy traffic flow. Clark's other big hit, "Downtown," also had a different meaning across the Atlantic, as in America it means the center of urban activity, while in England it would mean a downtrodden area. That song was written with the American meaning, as its writer, Tony Hatch, was inspired by New York City.

Gordon McLendon, known as "The Old Scotchman," was an ultra-conservative owner of radio stations in Dallas, Houston, Chicago, San Francisco, Detroit and San Antonio in the 1960s -'70s. He refused to play this on his stations because he believed the words were: "...take off your clothes and close the door." (thanks, Frederick - Galveston, TX)
