Previously: Songs edited for broadcast.  That is also an overthought post, but I must insist that you comment either on that one or the grammar one — as penance for something (?).  And yes, I’m using “must” modally. 

No one’s ever told me that before!

Oh wait yes they have.

DUDE, you think too much. Hell, he’s always drunk, half the time you can’t even understand what he says when he’s talking, let alone singing. No one would notice if the songs were grammatically correct anyway…well, except you, of course. :p

Ugh. Grammar was never my forte, as you’ve probably noticed. But hey, I have an excuse, I’m foreign. ahaha

Inside, outside, or really creepy that I’m asking about your tattoos?

With a few lyrics from “Given To Fly” to come fairly soon.

To the uninitiated, she is talking about a rock song describing a character whose arc stretches from

A bad time, nothing could save him
Alone in a corridor, waiting, locked out

to

And he still gives his love, he just gives it away
The love he receives is the love that is saved

That last word is “saved-rescued”, not “saved-reserved”.

Frequently I really wish people could understand Ed’s lyrics while he sings them.  He wishes he “was a messenger and all the news was good“: he’s is a messenger, all the news is profoundly not good, and messengers need to enunciate clearly.

The traffic sign?  Or something else?

(lame, I know haha)

Then we’re both lame.  I’ve been planning to get the bird part when I figure out where:

Indeed. And I’ve got the tattoo to prove it.. (lame, I know haha)

I usually only get PJ references…if any.

Join the fun, there is almost always a more-or-less obscure reference in every blog post — frequently in the title, the URL, or both — and it’s a wacky-cool game for the whole family to identify them!  W00t!  Hint: If you don’t get it, it’s probably one of “Pearl Jam”, “Eddie Izzard”, or “Henry David Thoreau”.
