Copenhagen Lyrics

Thundering news hits me like a snowball
Struck in my face and shattering
Covering me in a fine powder and mist
And mixing in with my tears

And I'm fifty seven but I could be seven years old,
Cos I will never be able
To comprehend the expansiveness
Of what I've just learned

But you, have disappeared
You have been released
You are flecks of light
You are missed

Somewhere, spinning round the sun
Circling the moon
Traveling through time
You are missed

Walking through unfamiliar streets
And I'm shaking unfamiliar hands
And I'm hearing unfamiliar laughs
And lovely language I don't understand

It's late October in Copenhagen
The skies are grey, the snow is falling
I see my breath outside, I'm freezing
I'm motionless, I'm disbelieving

But you, have disappeared
You have been released
You are flecks of light
You are missed

Somewhere, spinning round the sun
Circling the moon
Traveling through time
You are missed

Copenhagen

This song is about the death of Lucinda's former manager Frank Carrali while she was away on tour. She told the website Elsewhere: "We were in Copenhagen when we heard of his death. The song is very literal. I'm, proud of that one, lyrically. It was snowing a little bit and we had the night off and found out about it. Tom (Overby) and I and our tour manager at the time walked down the street from the hotel and went to a bar and I ended up talking to these people all night, drinking and crying and trying to deal with the suddenness of it."

This chest-beating track finds B.o.B boasting about his rap dominance and how he has no need to worry about his haters and detractors. The massive, brass-laden beat was supplied by Detail, who co-wrote and produced Lil Wayne's hit single "How To Love," as well as helming several tracks on the Rich Gang album.

The song features Future on the chorus. "What Future brings to the song is just crazy," B.o.B told Rolling Stone. "Future came up with the hook and brought it to me first. I heard it and I loved it and so I spent a couple of days just trying to live with it and letting the music flow."

The rapper added that the song is an example of his new writing style, where he lets things form organically. "The way I write now, I just try and let the music come to me," he explained. "I really don't try to force anything, so if I catch something like a vibe or a feeling then I catch something and go with it and let that direct me. I feel like it's a more natural way to finish songs."

Union Of The Snake Lyrics

Telegram force and ready
I knew this was a big mistake
There's a fine line drawing
My senses together
And I think it's about to break
If I listen close I can hear them singers
Voices in your body coming through on the radio
The Union Of The Snake is on the climb
Moving up it's gonna race it's gonna break
Through the borderline
Nightshades on a warning
Give me strength at least give me a light
Give me anything even sympathy
There's a chance you could be right
If I listen close I can hear them singers
Voices in your body coming through on the radio
The Union of the Snake is on the climb
It's gonna race it's gonna break
Gonna move up to the borderline

Union Of The Snake

Duran Duran is rarely forthcoming about the meanings behind their songs, but this appears to be about the evil part of you taking over and consuming your body. The snake represents that other side of you.

In 1984, Duran Duran released The Book Of Words, which contained lyrics to their songs. In the book, Simon Le Bon explained, "Borderline might be one between the conscious and subconscious minds." He admitted in later interviews that it was a reference to tantric sex.

This was inspired by Jim Morrison's lyrics for The Doors' albums. Simon Le Bon told Spinner : "There are times when I get into books and things and some of that comes up on the record or I'll get into a certain artist. An obvious example of that is 'Union of The Snake' and 'Hungry Like The Wolf' are very much related to Jim Morrison and his lyrical ideas."

When the band got back together in 2002, bass player John Taylor dubbed it the "reunion of the snake."

19 You + Me Lyrics

It was our first week
At Myrtle Beach
Where it all began

It was 102°
Nothin' to do
Man it was hot
So we jumped in

We were summertime sippin', sippin'
Sweet tea kissin' off of your lips
T-shirt drippin', drippin' wet
How could I forget?

Watchin' that blonde hair swing
To every song I'd sing
You were California beautiful
I was playin' everything but cool
I can still hear that sound
Of every wave crashin' down
Like the tears we cried
That day we had to leave
It was everything we wanted it to be
The summer of
19 you and me

We had our first dance in the sand
It was one hell of a souvenir
Tangled up, so in love
So, let's just stay right here

'Til the sun starts creepin', creepin' up
Right then I knew
Just what you were thinkin', thinkin' of
When I looked at you

Watchin' that blonde hair swing
To every song I'd sing
You were California beautiful
I was playin' everything but cool
I can still hear that sound
Of every wave crashin' down
Like the tears we cried
That day we had to leave
It was everything we wanted it to be
The summer of
19 you and me
You and me

Watchin' that blonde hair swing
To every song I'd sing
You were California beautiful
Beautiful, beautiful

Watchin' that blonde hair swing
To every song I'd sing
You were California beautiful
I was playin' everything but cool
I can still hear that sound
Of every wave crashin' down
Like the tears we cried
That day we had to leave
It was everything we wanted it to be
The summer of
19 you and me

First week in myrtle beach where it all began

19 You + Me

Dan + Shay are a Country duo comprising Pennsylvania native Dan Smyers and Shay Mooney, who hails from Arkansas. Smyers was previously part of a duo called Bonaventure, whilst Mooney was on rapper T-Pain's Nappy Boy Entertainment label for a time before moving to Nashville. The pair met in Nashville in December 2013 and hit it off immediately. They began writing together and quickly turned into performing as a duo.

This song about a short summer week spent with a new lover is the lead single from their debut album. It was co-written by the pair and Danny Orton (Rascal Flatts' "Stand").

The song had 59 first week adds at Country radio, the biggest first week by a new duo in Country Aircheck History.

Speaking with Radio.com , Shay explained how that song came together. "We were sitting around and talking," he said. "We wanted to write a love song and use our own personal experience to tell that story. We were just sharing our stories about meeting girls in the summer and that summer love that you had."

Where It All Began landed at #1 on Top Country Albums a week after its release. Dan + Shay were the first ever duo to debut at the top of that chart with their first record.

It's All Been Done Lyrics

I met you before the fall of Rome
And I begged you to let me take you home
You were wrong, I was right
You said goodbye, I said goodnight

It's All Been Done
It's all been done
It's all been done before

I knew you before the west was won
And I heard you say the past
Was much more fun
You go your way, I go mine
But I'll see you next time

It's all been done
It's all been done
It's all been done before

If I put my fingers here, and if I say
"I love you, dear"
And if I play the same three chords,
Will you just yawn and say

It's all been done
It's all been done
It's all been done before

Alone and bored on a thirtieth-century night
Will I see you on The Price Is Right?
Will I cry? Will I smile?
As you run down the aisle?

It's all been done
It's all been done
It's all been done before

It's all been done
It's all been done
It's all been done before

It's all been done
It's all been done
It's all been done before

It's All Been Done

This song appears to follow the stages of a relationship.

We start from when the couple initially meet:
"I met you, before the fall of Rome and I bet you to let me take you home."

The next verse is a date that didn't go so well:
"I knew you before the west was won. I heard you say, 'the past was much more fun.'"

Though he knows that they we get together again:
"You go your way, I'll go mine but I'll see you next time."

The couple then go on to make love, though she is bored:
"If I put my fingers here and If I say I love you dear and if I play the same three chords will you just yawn And say, 'Ah, I hate it.'"

They then split up, and he wonders if he'll ever see her again:
"Alone and bored on a thirtieth century night will I see you on The Price is Right?"

He also considers what he will do when she finds somebody else:
"Will I cry, will I smile as you run, down the aisle?"

The Outsiders Lyrics

They’re the in crowd, we’re the other ones
It’s a different kind of cloth that we’re cut from
We let our colors show, where the numbers ain’t
With the paint where there ain’t supposed to be paint

That’s who we are
That’s how we roll
The Outsiders, The outsiders

Our women get hot, and our leather gets stained
When we saddle up and ride 'em in the pouring rain
We’re the junkyard dogs, we’re the alley cats
Keep the wind at our front, and the hell at our back

That’s who we are
We do our talking, walk that walk
Wide open rocking
That’s how we roll

Our backs to the wall
A band of brothers
Together, alone, the outsiders
We’re the riders, we’re the ones burning rubber off our tires.
Yeah, we’re the fighters, the all-nighters
So fire 'em up and get a lil higher

Woah-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh

We’re the bad news
We’re the young guns
We’re the ones that they told you to run from
Yeah, the player’s gonna play, and a haters gonna hate
And a regulators born to regulate
When it hits the fan, and it all goes down
And the gloves come off
You’re gonna find out just

Who we are
We do our talking, walk that walk
Wide open rocking
That’s how we roll

Our backs to the wall
A band of brothers
Together, alone, the outsiders

We’re the riders, we’re the ones burning rubber off our tires
Yeah, we’re the fighters, the all-nighters
So fire 'em up and get a lil higher

Woah-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh
The outsiders
Woah-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh
The outsiders
Woah-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh
You’re gonna know who we are

Woah-oh-oh

The outsiders
Woah-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh

That’s who we are

The Outsiders

The first single from Eric Church's fourth album is a gritty left-field rocker that was written by Church and Casey Beathard and helmed by Jay Joyce, Church's longtime producer. The song was officially sent for radio adds on October 28, 2013.

Casey Beathard also co-penned Church's last single, "Like Jesus Does." The Nashville songwriter's other credits include "The Breath You Take" by George Strait and "The Boys of Fall" by Kenny Chesney.

The Metal moments that mark the song's last minute came during a jam and resemble nothing you've heard on Country radio. "If you go past that, it's a cliff," Church told The Associated Press "Sometimes I feel like we're leaning over it."

The renegade spirit of the song perfectly sums up Church's career. "A lot of people think it's ironic that we've had the success we've had over the last couple of years, won awards and had #1s, and it's called The Outsiders," Church told Billboard magazine. "But it's about the journey to get to that point. I certainly have a place in my heart for anybody who is different, anybody who is doing things that other people aren't doing. I've been that person. This song's for a 13- or 14-year-old kid who doesn't quite have it all together yet and he's the outcast. It's a gladiator song. It's a locker-room song. It fires you up."

Hey shut up, hey shut up, yeah
On the field I remember you were incredible

On the match with the boys, you think you're all alone
With the pain that you drain from love
In a car with a girl, promise me she's not your world
Cause Andy, You're A Star

Leave your number on the locker and I'll give you a call
Hey shut up, hey shut up, yeah
Leave your legacy in gold on the plaques that line the hall
Hey shut up, hey shut up, yeah

On the streets, such a sweet face jumping in town
In the staff when the verdict is in
In a car with a girl, promise me she's not your world
Cause Andy, you're a star
In nobody's eyes but mine
Andy, you're a star
In nobody's eyes but mine

In nobody's eyes
In nobody's eyes but mine

Andy, You're A Star

The lyrics seem to suggest a gay schoolyard crush, though lead singer Brandon Flowers has been heard to say that it concerns a stalker and his object of desire (the same thing, perhaps?).

The video was shot in black and white by Anton Corbijn, who also famously shot videos and photos for U2 and Depeche Mode.

The choir in this song is the Sweet Inspirations, a female vocal group most famous for touring and recording with Elvis Presley during his last eight years. The group has had a variety of members, including Cissy Houston (mother of Whitney) and Dee Dee Warwick; the configuration the recorded with The Killers was Estelle Brown, Myrna Smith and Sylvia Shernwell. They also sang on the Hot Fuss track "All These Things That I've Done."

The Killers got their name from a fictitious band in New Order's video "Crystal."

They hold on tight

Ooh, they hold on tight
Them lips won't let me go

Don't let this go to your head
But you're the best, I've ever had
Not to mention
That thing is swollen
You got me oh so in a trance

Something like a Ziploc, but a lip lock
Want you wrapped around my arm like a wrist watch
Oh, so hard walking out
Got me stuck like crazy glue, ooh

They hold on tight
Yeah, they hold on tight
Ooh, they hold on tight
Them lips won't let me go
(Lips won't let me go, lips won't let me go, oh)

They hold on tight
Yeah, they hold on tight
Ooh, they hold on tight
Them lips won't let me go

Got me tossing, turning in the bed
Your place is where I rather be instead
You don't know your strength
Missing you is like adrenaline
Oh, when you got me in a gridlock
What a great spot
Yeah, that turned up kind of love and it just won't stop
No, so hard walking out
Got me stuck like crazy glue, ooh babe

They hold on tight
Yeah, they hold on tight
Ooh, they hold on tight
Them lips won't let me go
(Lips won't let me go, lips won't let me go, oh)

They hold on tight
Yeah, they hold on tight
Ooh, they hold on tight
Them lips won't let me go, no babay

Holding back the faces I would make
I'm a fan and you're the rock star
Making it hard on me
Visualize a monster
'Cause you're too bad for me
Shot that arrow, I'm hit
Need you right near me
Trying to maintain, so don't mind if I turn away (no, no)
I try to maintain, so don't mind if I turn away

They hold on tight
Yeah, they hold on tight
Ooh, they hold on tight
Them lips won't let me go
(Lips won't let me go, lips won't let me go, oh)

They hold on tight
Yeah, they hold on tight
Ooh, they hold on tight

Hold Tight

This sultry, R&B-centered ode was released as the third installment of Justin's Music Mondays series. The song finds the singer haunted by the memories of an unforgettable kiss. He croons:

"Something like a zip-lock
But a lip lock
Want you wrapped around me like a wrist watch."

Many believe his ex-girlfriend Selena Gomez is the focus of this tune. This is supported by Justin's manager, Scooter Braun, who told Billboard magazine that the songs featured on his Music Mondays series were created while the pop superstar was "going through a tough time" on the road. He was referring to Justin's Believe Tour - the pair broke up during the first few months of the concert run.

Drugs Or Me Lyrics

Stay with me
You're the one that I need
You make the hardest things
Seem easy

Keep my heart
Somewhere drugs don't go
Were the sun shines lay
Always keep me close

If only you could see
The stranger next to me
You promised you promised that you're done
But i can't tell you from the drugs

Don't let go
Dig a great big hole
Down an endless hole
We'll both go

You're so blind
You can't see me this time
Hope comes from inside
And I feel so low tonight

If only you could see
The stranger next to me
You promised you promised that you're done
But I can't tell you from the drugs

I wish you could see
This face in front of me
you're sorry swear it you're done
But I can't tell you from the drugs

(Oh)
(Oh)

(Take me) I need your help
(So far away) To pull me up take the pain
(Take me) Out from me
(So far away) Out from me

(Take me) If only you could see (I need your help)
(So far away) The stranger next to me (To pull me up take the pain)
(Take me) You promised you promised that you're done (Out from me)
(So far away) But I can't tell you from the drugs (Out from me)

(Take me) I wish that you could see (I need your help)
(So far away) This face in front of me (To pull me up take the pain)
(Take me) You're sorry you swear it you're done (Out from me)
(So far away) But I can't tell you from the drugs (Out from me)

Keep my heart
Somewhere drugs don't go
Where the sun shines low
always keep me close

Drugs Or Me

This song is about how addiction to drugs effects a relationship when one person is hooked and the other isn't. One person promises to quit but doesn't, and the the other is left to find the one he loves in this drug addict ("'Cause right now I can't tell you from the drug...").

Young Love

This song about a first love was released as the lead single from Kip Moore's sophomore album. The Country singer-songwriter penned the tune with his longtime friends Dan Couch ("Hey Pretty Girl," "Somethin' 'Bout a Truck") and Weston Davis. "Being able to write songs with a couple of your best friends and then actually have some success with it is something every up and coming songwriter dreams about, and I have a hard time believing that we've achieved that sometimes. Beyond being friends, Dan and Weston are two of the most talented guys I know, and we always push each other to be better," said Moore. "This song is about being in love so much that the rest of the world doesn't matter, it is just about those two people. Especially being young, everyone else might not take it as seriously as you are feeling it. I think most people have been there and we wanted to tell that story."

Moore explained to Billboard magazine that this is a 'us against the world' song. He recalled: "We (Davis and him) were talking with Dan (Couch) about his marriage and the struggles they went through to get where they are. Then, we got to talking about being younger kids. I remember being sixteen in Panama City, and sneaking away with this girl I really liked. You get in trouble, and the parents hate you for it. We just started talking about the crazy things you will do for that person. It's one of those songs where it's you against everybody else, and you make it through."

Skinned Lyrics

I'll make a shoehorn outta your skin
I'll make a lampshade of durable skin
And oh, don't you know that I'm always feelin' able
When I'm sittin' home and I'm carving out your navel

When will I realize that this skin I'm in
Hey, it isn't mine
And when will the kill be too much meat for me to hide on

Hey, I could really use a couple of hands
To complete one hell of a plant stand
Oh, and don't you know that I'm caught here in the middle
Making rib cages into coffee tables
I'm just makin' em into coffee tables

And when I realize that this skin I'm in
Hey, it isn't mine
And when will the thrill be too much meat for me to find anymore

Oh, because you know I can't hide
But oh how hard I try
But this is just the shape I'm in, oh yeah
And though you know I can't hide
But oh how hard I try
But this is just the shape I'm in

Skinned

This song is about a deranged killer named Ed Gein who was from Plainfield, Wisconsin. He would go to cemeteries at night and dig up graves, removing the bodies of women who resembled his mother. Gein would then dismember the bodies and use the skin to make lamp shades and other assorted items. He was also a murderer - one day he killed Bernice Worden, a clerk in a hardware store, and gutted her body out like a deer in his barn. When police arrested him they found a human heart on the stove along with other body parts throughout the house.

A track from the band's second album, lead singer Shannon Hoon wrote this song after reading a book about serial killers that included Gein. He wrote this song believing that there are two sides to everything and is showing the humorous side to the Ed Gein story.

Blind Melon wasn't the first band with a song about Gein; Slayer released "Dead Skin Mask" about him in 1990.

In our interview with Blind Melon guitarist Christopher Thorn , he talked about coming up with the track to this song: "While writing songs for the Soup record, I has buying different instruments, and doing some songwriting experiments with them. I bought a banjo, so I wrote 'Skinned' just for fun. I never imagined Shannon would choose to write lyrics over that music. It was odd and really just so I could learn how to play banjo."

Christopher Thorn brought a recording rig with him on Blind Melon's tours, so it was his room that Shannon Hoon would visit when he wanted to lay down a vocal idea. "I remember being on tour in Middle America and him singing the vocal to 'Skinned,' Thorn said. "I thought it was hilarious and sick at the same time."
