Mind Mischief – Tame Impala

Mind Mischief – Tame Impala

I love Tame Impala’s retro sound. When I say retro kids, I mean 60s and 70s. I have the limited edition of Innerspeaker from 2010 and still enjoy it. Mind Mischief is on the second album, Lonerism

The “official” video is linked below. It’s kind of NSFW and the song & video can be interpreted many ways. The album Lonerism is about a lonely guy. So I think the song and the “official” video are about a lonely school boy who fantasizes about his teacher. There are sexual overtones to the video and song and I’ll just leave it at that.

Feels like my life is ready to blow,

Me and my love we’ll take it slow.

I hope she knows that I’ll love her long,

I just don’t know where the hell I belong.

How optimism led me astray,

Two hundred things I took the wrong way.

But I saw her love gauge running low,

I tried to fill but it overflowed.

She remembers my name

Could be blown way out…

It’s all going to change

She remembers my name.

But she was only messing around,

Please, no more playing with my heart.

Ooh, go with mr. right just for once!

Oooh, no more mischief with my mind.

Then it all just came out

Guess I’ll hold it in next time…

No more getting it wrong,

I’ll be frozen here on.

If forever we’ll see,

but no more guessing for me.

Oh, I was just so sure of everything

Ooh, that’s what you get for dreaming aloud

Oh, the day that words are clearer to me.

Stubborn Man – Neil Young

Stubborn Man – Neil Young

This is the closest I could find for stubborn man. Happy Birthday.

Stubborn man

better keep your head

Don’t forget

what your good book said

Stubborn change

gonna come at last

Now your crosses

are burning fast

Stubborn man

I saw cotton

and I saw black

Tall white mansions

and little shacks.

Stubborn man

when will you

pay them back?

I heard screamin’

and bullwhips cracking

How long? How long?

Stubborn man

better keep your head

Don’t forget

what your good book said

Stubborn change

gonna come at last

Now your crosses

are burning fast

Stubborn man

Lily Belle,

your hair is golden brown

I’ve seen your black man

comin’ round

Swear by God

I’m gonna cut him down!

I heard screamin’

and bullwhips cracking

How long? How long?

When it’s cold outside…

When it’s cold outside…

Cindy Brown pointed me to this funny video.

Arctic Chill in LA

Because it’s -11C/13F outside, who are you holding?

If You Think You’re Lonely Now – Bobby Womack

I wanna dedicate this song to all the lovers tonight

And I expect that might be the whole world

Because everybody needs something or someone to love

When it’s cold outside who are you holding?

You know, if y’all don’t mind I’d like to talk about this woman of mine

She’s always complainin’ bout me never bein’ at home

But when I’m down broke

She’s tellin’ me about the things that her girlfriend’s got

What she ain’t got and she wants me to go out and get em for her

But girl, I can’t be in two places at one time

If you think you’re lonely now, huh

Wait until tonight, girl

(If you think you’re lonely now)

I’ll be long gone

(Wait until tonight, girl)

And you’ll find another man that’ll treat you right

(If you think you’re lonely now)

When I ain’t there to rub your back

(Wait until tonight, girl)

Just remember I made it a long fact

And when the skeletons come out of the closet

And chase you all around your room

And the memories sail round like a ghost

And that’s a matter of fact, no joke, ah

If you think you’re lonely now

(If you think you’re lonely now)

Oh, wait until tonight

(Wait until tonight, girl)

I’ll be long gone

(If you think you’re lonely now)

And you’ll never find another man that’ll treat you right

(You just wait until tonight, girl)

(If you think you’re lonely now)

You think you’re lonely now

(Wait until tonight, girl)

Wait, wait, wait until tonight, girl

Oh, ain’t it funny how the tables turn

When things aren’t goin’ your way?

But when love runs out and the pain walks in

And settles for a stay, ooh

(If you think you’re lonely now)

Lord, help me, I feel like I wanna testify

(Wait until tonight, girl)

(If you think you’re lonely now)

Girl, wait until tonight

(Wait until tonight, girl)

If you think you’re lonely, lonely now

(If you think you’re lonely now)

(Wait until tonight, girl)

Oh, you just wait until tonight, girl

(If you think you’re lonely now)

(Wait until tonight, girl)

You see tonight’s the night when the needs come out

When your needs come out to breathe

And you toast the stars and there ain’t now way you can sleep, ooh

(If you think you’re lonely now)

If you think you’re lonely now

(Wait until tonight, girl)

I feel like I wanna testify this evenin’

(If you think you’re lonely now)

I’m lonely, cause I know I gotta leave you, oh, girl

(Wait until tonight, girl)

I just can’t take no more

(If you think you’re lonely now)

Ooh, hoo, hoo

(You just wait until tonight, girl)

Ah, girl, you just wait

(If you think you’re lonely now)

If you think you got problems now, baby, you just wait

(Wait until tonight, girl)

Wait

(If you think you’re lonely now)

Too far gone

(Wait until tonight, girl)

Like you’re runnin’ out

(If you think you’re lonely now)

Ooh, hoo, ooh, hoo, babe

(Wait until tonight, girl)

You say you’re a little lonely

(If you think you’re lonely now)

But everybody needs somebody to love

(Wait until tonight, girl)

(If you think you’re lonely now)

It’s good that you know that you got somebody that’ll stand by your side

That’ll build you up when you’re fallin’ down

(Wait until tonight, girl)

And you had that someone, baby

(If you think you’re lonely now)

Cause I’ve done my time

(Wait until tonight, girl)

And it’s your turn now

(If you think you’re lonely now)

If you think you’re lonely now

(Wait until tonight, girl)

Wait, wait until tonight

(If you think you’re lonely now)

I’m tired, tired of this same old shuck & jiving

(Wait until tonight, girl)

It’s been too long

(If you think you’re lonely now)

You think, you could start all over again, it’s been too long

(Wait until tonight, girl)

You think you could start it just one more time

(If you think you’re lonely now)
