Clay Lyrics

Words sail
Out into the wind
Their meaning
Taken by time

Your deep seeing eyes
Ancient stars

We wanted only to love
How will I find you again?
Fate or chance

A beauty
In uncertainty
We fought them
On great white sand

Our shadows reframed memories
We want only to live
Only to love and breathe again

Your white waves in the night
Longing I'm lost
In dreams of mine

Blue billowing green waves of grass
The iron sky
Turning in the looking glass

Your deep seeing eyes
Ancient stars

You are wonderful light
My only love
Sleep well
Good night

Clay

This song finds Alison Goldfrapp singing about two male lovers that were brought together by war then separated, permanently. She told The Idolator that it was inspired by a true story. "I found a letter on a website called Letters Of Note," Goldfrapp explained. "It's basically a letter from a soldier to another soldier. They met in [World War II] and became lovers, and tragically one of them dies in battle. So they're not able to ever resume their love. This letter is written on the anniversary of the other's death, and it just moved me so much that it inspired the song."

The Civil Wars song "D'Arline" from their 2013 eponymous album was inspired by a different letter found on the same website.

Tape Deck Lyrics

Tape Deck

This endearing track finds Johnson recalling the days of his high school Punk band, who did covers of Minor Threat, Fugazi, and Bad Religion tunes. He told WXRT's Marty Lennartz: "It's all about our first band, Limber Chicken. It's the story of that band, how we got our instruments, practicing and stuff."

"It's funny, because we recorded it on a nylon string acoustic (guitar)," Johnson continued, "and an upright bass and a little hand drum. It's the most un-punk thing you've ever heard. It's pretty funny. As an 18-year-old, I would've just hated me for doing it. The lamest 38-year-old thing to do."

Don't Worry Be Happy Lyrics

Here's a little song I wrote
You might want to sing it note for note
Don't worry, be happy
In every life we have some trouble
But when you worry you make it double
Don't worry, be happy
Don't worry, be happy now

Don't worry, be happy
Don't worry, be happy
Don't worry, be happy
Don't worry, be happy

Ain't got no place to lay your head
Somebody came and took your bed
Don't worry, be happy
The landlord say your rent is late
He may have to litigate
Don't worry, be happy

Don't worry, be happy
Don't worry, be happy
Don't worry, be happy
Don't worry, be happy

(Look at me, I'm happy, don't worry, be happy
Here I give you my phone number, when you worry, call me,
I make you happy, don't worry, be happy)
Ain't got no cash, ain't got no style
Ain't got no gal to make you smile
Don't worry, be happy
'Cause when you worry your face will frown
And that will bring everybody down
Don't worry, be happy

Don't worry, be happy
Don't worry, be happy
Don't worry, be happy
Don't worry, be happy

(Don't worry, don't worry, don't do it
Be happy, put a smile on your face
Don't bring everybody down
Don't worry, it will soon pass, whatever it is
Don't worry, be happy
I'm not worried, I'm happy)

Don't Worry Be Happy

This song reached #1 on the US pop charts, which is astounding for a song sung a cappella (without instruments). McFerrin recorded it using only his body to make all the sounds.

There were rumors that McFerrin attempted suicide after doing this song, and they are not true. However the rumors became so strong that even to this day people think Bobby is dead. This is untrue, he is alive and well.

The phrase "Don't Worry Be Happy" came from the Indian guru Meher Baba. In an interview with USA Weekend magazine, McFerrin explained that he saw a poster of Meher Baba with the phrase and thought it was "a pretty neat philosophy in four words." See the poster in Song Images.

This was featured in the films Cocktail (1988) and Casper - A Spirited Beginning (1997).

This won 1988 Grammy Awards for Best Pop Vocal Performance and Song Of The Year.

George H. W. Bush used this in his 1988 US presidential campaign but stopped doing so after McFerrin objected.

The phrase "Don't Worry Be Happy" was used in some cases to criticize people with a rosy outlook on the world, as if they were oblivious to problems. The most notable use of the phrase in this context came from the rap group Public Enemy in their song "Fight The Power" when vocalist Chuck D declared: "Don't Worry Be Happy was a number one jam. Damn, if I say it you can slap me right here." Chuck later explained that he had no animosity toward McFerrin or this song, but was using the phrase as a call to action.

Robin Williams appears in the video, as does the lesser-known comedian Bill Irwin.

All of time in this one single day
You take it in and you

Follow your hands as they build

Radiate

Johnson wrote this upbeat campfire-ready foot-stomper about his six-year-old son's freewheeling imagination. "He's just constantly drawing pictures with his hands," the singer told Rolling Stone, "creating this world and walking into it. I ask him, 'What are you doing in there?'"

Stop It Lyrics

I'ma tell you broke niggas something

Make money, no vacation
Pay cash don't make payments
Getting high like I'm eighteen
But I've been rich since the late eighties
Backstage, naked ladies
Poppin pills and swallowing babies
Bad bitches ain't come to play
She gon' give me head before I go on stage
New car, a couple, a hundred
Ain't nothin' I call it play money
Bugatti, Ferrari, the Benz, the Bentley
Juicy stay stuntin
Street niggas, we packin them tools
Play with it, make action news
Put some money on your head, you worth a stack or two
Real nigga I'm 100, I sip lean and I chase money
Niggas out here savin hoes, niggas need to be savin money
Made mine, can't take it from me
Hit the club, I take your woman
Take her home, get some head, wake up breakfast in bed
Yeah nigga that's grits and eggs
Rich bitch don't forget the bread
Up and down that interstate
I move weight, that's Jenny Craig
I'ma fuck me a model, I'mma fuck me a model
You only get to live one time, so I'mma fuck me a model

I make money all day then I ball with the profits
Niggas hate on me, I tell em hatin' niggas Stop It
Go fuck with a bitch, get that becky then I'm gone
Catch me on that loud pack, blowin on this strong

I make money all day then I ball with the profits
Niggas hate on me, I tell em hatin' niggas stop it
Go fuck with a bitch, get that becky then I'm gone
Catch me on that loud pack, blowin on this strong

Straight out of north Memphis nigga

Still rich and ain’t gon stop getting rich
Told you niggas I ain’t gon' never gonna stop getting money
Let’s get it

Bitch you ain’t no killa
And real niggas don’t talk
Start shit in this club

Niggas get killed and then we ain’t shedding no tears
Niggas can’t keep they mouth closed, judge give you them years
Yo homie fuckin yo bitch
And she ain't acceptin' your calls
Them niggas ain't holding you down
And you call them niggas yo dogs
They really out here hatin so stay strapped up like a tank
They got guns they got in movies
Except they not shootin' blanks
Pass straight in broad daylight

Young niggas got something to prove, niggas think he pushin
Playin' round in my hood and they'll smoke you like a swisha
We don’t play bout money and we don’t play with them pistols

I make money all day then I ball with the profits
Niggas hate on me, I tell em hatin' niggas stop it
Go fuck with a bitch, get that becky then I'm gone

Niggas hate on me, I tell em hatin' niggas stop it
Go fuck with a bitch, get that becky then I'm gone
Catch me on that loud pack, blowin on this strong

Stop It

Juicy opens his third album Stay Trippy with this bouncy cut where he lays down what he does and has done. Recorded primarily in hotel rooms while on the road, the record finds the former Three Six Rapper sharing some of his wisdom. "I'm talking about what took place in life from back in the day to what's going now," Juicy told Artist Direct . "I'm giving people knowledge about everything. 'Pay cash' and 'no vacation' are the first couple of lines on my album from 'Stop It.'"

A Rush Of Blood To The Head Lyrics

He said I'm gonna buy this place and burn it down
I'm gonna put it six feet underground
He said I'm gonna buy this place and watch it fall
Stand here beside me baby in the crumbling walls
Oh I'm gonna buy this place and start a fire
Stand here until I fill all your heart's desires
Because I'm gonna buy this place and see it burn
Do back the things it did to you in return

Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah

He said I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war
If you can tell me something worth fighting for
Oh and I'm gonna buy this place, that's what I said
Blame it upon A Rush Of Blood To The Head

And honey all the movements you're starting to make
See me crumble and fall on my face
And I know the mistakes that I made
See it all disappear without a trace
And they call as they beckon you on
They said start as you mean to go on
Start as you mean to go on

He said I'm gonna buy this place and see it go
Stand here beside my baby watch the orange glow
Some'll laugh and some just sit and cry
You just sit down there and you wonder why
So I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war
If you can tell me something worth fighting for
And I'm gonna buy this place, that's what I said
Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head
Oh to the head

And honey all the movements you're starting to make
See me crumble and fall on my face
And I know the mistakes that I made
See it all disappear without a trace
And they call as they beckon you on
They say start as you mean to go on
As you mean to go on, as you mean to go on

So meet me by the bridge, meet me by the lane
When am I gonna see that pretty face again
Meet me on the road, meet me where I said
Blame it all upon
A rush of blood to the head

One Thousand Lyrics

One Thousand

This is a track from Stay Trippy, Juicy J's first solo album since distancing himself from Three 6 Mafia and signing to Wiz Khalifa's Taylor Gang Records. Wiz contributes to the bridge on this track, one of three appearances he makes on the record.

Juicy explained the song's meaning to Artist Direct: "It's telling you what it is," he said. "It's talking about chicks and how you manage your money. I'm giving some knowledge. If you listen to it, there's some knowledge in there."

The Recollect produced song features something Juicy J has never incorporated before - a Hip-Hop beat. Said the former Three Six Mafia rapper to Artist Direct : "From back in the day until now, I never really made a song with a hip-hop beat over it. I definitely wanted to do that. It's one of my favorite songs on the album because I haven't done it. People get to hear me rap over something different. I never did it so I was like, 'Yo, I like hip-hop.' I wish I could've done more on the album. I put one song on there."

The song samples the Toots and the Maytals song "Just Like That," which was the title track of the Jamaican Reggae group's 1980 album.

Fall To Pieces Lyrics

I looked away
Then I looked back at you
You tried to say
Things that you can't undo
If I had my way
I'd never get over you
Today's the day
I pray that we make it through
Make it through the fall
Make it through it all

And I don't want to Fall To Pieces
I just want to sit and stare at you
I don't want to talk about it
And I don't want a conversation
I just want to cry in front of you
I don't want to talk about it
'Cause I'm in love with you

You're the only one
I'd be with 'til the end
When I come undone
You bring me back again
Back under the stars
Back into your arms

And I don't want to fall to pieces
I just want to sit and stare at you
I don't want to talk about it
And I don't want a conversation
I just want to cry in front of you
I don't want to talk about it
'Cause I'm in love with you

Want to know who you are
Want to know where to start
I want to know what this means
Want to know how you feel
Want to know what is real
I want to know everything, everything

And I don't want to fall to pieces
I just want to sit and stare at you
I don't want to talk about it
And I don't want a conversation
I just want to cry in front of you
I don't want to talk about it

And I don't want to fall to pieces
I just want to sit and stare at you
I don't want to talk about it
And I don't want a conversation
I just want to cry in front of you
I don't want to talk about it
'Cause I'm in love with you

I'm in love with you
'Cause I'm in love with you
I'm in love with you
I'm in love with you

Fall To Pieces

In the song, Lavigne explains that she just had a fight with a guy and they are at a point where the relationship can go one of 2 ways: either they make it through or they end it. She is hoping they stay together - "I don't want to fall to pieces." The overall tone of the song is sad and wistful, with no resolution about the relationship.

Even The Stars Fall 4 U Lyrics

I couldn't bring myself to take you home
I've got you out here all alone
And even this old drunken mind
Still right here tonight

Yellow fireflies in the field
Think I know the way I feel
At the corner of my eye
Did you see that?

Every star up in the sky
Has got your name on it tonight
And they don't stand a chance like I know I don't
And girl you can't tell me that you can't see
The kind of spell you put on me
You gotta know just what you do
Even the stars fall for you
Even the stars fall for you

So make a wish and make it fast
I just want this thing to last
'Cause heaven knows it's falling hard
And I'm not the only one

Every star up in the sky
Has got your name on it tonight
And they don't stand a chance like I know I don't
And girl you can't tell me that you can't see
The kind of spell you put on me
You gotta know just what you do
Even the stars fall for you

I never counted on your touch
Making me want you so much
I never dreamed of your sweet lips
Could make me feel like this
Nothing like this

Every star up in the sky
Has got your name on it tonight
And they don't stand a chance like I know I don't
And girl you can't tell me that you can't see
The kind of spell you put on me
'Cause you gotta know just what you do
Even the stars fall for you
Even the stars fall for you
Even the stars fall for you

Even The Stars Fall 4 U

Longtime producer Dann Huff had been in charge of the previous five Keith Urban albums, but the singer used ten separate producers to create the sounds on Fuse, including Butch Walker (Fall Out Boy, Weezer) on this track.

The song was a turning point in Fuse's trajectory. Urban had felt something in the song's energy that reminded him of Fall Out Boy's 2013 single "My Songs Know What You Did In The Dark (Light Em Up)," so he brought the demo to the band's producer, Butch Walker. "I remember sitting in Butch's studio," said Urban, "and listening to what he did and thinking, 'we might have gone a little too far off the rails with this one.' but then I realized that this is probably where the expansion of the new sound begins. This is it, this is where we push out from where we used to be and go somewhere different."

Urban said to Rolling Stone of this uncharacteristically abrasive track: "It's sort of industrial-punk-ish, relative to what I do. Not like anything I've done before."

Amazed Lyrics

Every time our eyes meet
This feeling inside me
Is almost more than I can take
Baby when you touch me
I can feel how much you love me
And it just blows me away
I've never been this close to anyone,
Or anything
I can hear your thoughts, I can see your dreams

I don't know how you do what you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
I want to spend the rest of my life,
with you by my side
Forever and ever
Every little thing that you do,
Baby I'm Amazed by you.

The smell of your skin,
The taste of your kiss,
The way you whisper in the dark.
Your hair all around me,
Baby you surround me
Touch every place in my heart
And it feels like the first time
Every time.
I want to spend the whole night
In your eyes

I don't know how you do what you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
I want to spend the rest of my life,
with you by my side
Forever and ever
Every little thing that you do,
Baby I'm amazed by you.

I don't know how you do what you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
I want to spend the rest of my life,
with you by my side
Forever and ever
Every little thing that you do,
Baby I'm amazed by you.

Amazed

This country ballad took 30 weeks to reach the US Top 10, which is a record. Lonestar were also the first country act to reach #1 on the Hot 100 since "Islands in the Stream" by Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton in 1983.

In the UK despite reaching only #21, it sold over 180,000 copies during its chart run, a large amount for a song that didn't reach the top 20.

According to PRS For Music, the UK music royalties collecting service, this ballad is the most popular song choice for UK newlyweds' first dances. The 2009 survey was conducted by asking 2,000 wedding videographers, which were the most requested first songs at the weddings they attended. In second place came Aerosmith's "I Don't Want To Miss A Thing", followed by the number three choice, Shania Twain's "From This Moment On."

Three Nashville songwriters teamed up to write this song, and it was by far the biggest hit for each. Two of the writers, Chris Lindsey and Aimee Mayo, are a married couple, and the third, Marv Green, is their friend and songwriting partner. When they wrote the song, Lindsey and Mayo were in the process of falling in love, and drew upon their burgeoning romance for inspiration. "Our feelings for each other just started coming out as we were writing," Mayo said. The song was the first Country #1 for the couple; Lindsey also co-wrote Lonestar's next single (also a Country #1), "Smile."

When we spoke with Lonestar lead singer Richie McDonald in 2013, he said that he still loves performing the song. "Artists wait for a song like that to come along that can take their career to another level, and that song did that for Lonestar, and that's something that we'll never forget," he said. "And it's not just the impact that it had on our careers, but the impact that it has on the fans. I mean, 10 years later it still has the same effect. That song to me is just a classic, timeless song. And it is that song that took Lonestar to another level. We will never, ever get tired of playing that song, just because we still have fans come up to us night after night saying that's the song they got married to, the song they use on their anniversary. That's what music is supposed to be about: if you can get in touch with people's emotions, you can become a part of their story, as well. We've made an impact on people's lives and that means more than anything to us."

With so many people using this song at weddings and other special occasions, Lonestar sometimes feels a bit of pressure when performing it, as there are so many special memories associated with it. "I have a friend who's a DJ and he says he plays it at every single wedding that he performs at," Richie McDonald told us. "The problem is that sometimes you try to recreate that, but you can't recreate that. You've just got to go in; it kind of sets the bar awful high."
