Day 13: A song about wishing

while it's still hard for me to separate the man from the music, he had some amazing hits a long the way, especially before 2000...still rip

"I wish I didn't know now what I didn't then..."
I don't disagree, but fuck that song is good.
 
Day 13: A song about wishing

Interpreting poetry has never been my strong suit and the Doors certainly wrote poetical music. I believe good art encourages personal interpretation without being so esoteric as to confuse; this song has had me stumped for a long time but I've finally decided what it means to me.

So my interpretation of this one is of wishing for fact to match memory.

Day 13: A song about wishing

I wish, I wish, I wish...

I had a sweetly positive one all picked out, but @Whiskeyjack shot that down, so this is his fault. It was the harmonies that drew me in on this one when it came wandering out of my speakers, and this stripped down live version even more so. But lyrically, it is sweetly brutal. This is "wake up at 3 AM wishing."

"I wish that I was smarter and I wish I could
Communicate a thought without being misunderstood
But it's better keeping quiet, yeah, it's easy staying put."

and

"I think I have become the person that I said I never would."

But the real hit for me is the final line. And I wish, I wish, I wish...

"Wishes (live)," Tiny Habits
I am personally happy he stole your original pick because thank you for this! I have listened to this so many times tonight 🥰
 
Day 14: A 'fuck you' song

One serving of punk rock special coming up!

I don't like you!
Fuck you
I hate you
Fuck off!
Fuck you!

Don't wanna be part of your order
Wanna play in my street punk band
Playing loud music
Pissing on the latest fad
I won't pretend to like you
'Cause I ain't no social fool
