Another one of Maddie's fav songs of all time post: I do not listen to Jane's Addiction (--dope--ass band name) but this song is a fam staple. I heard this song all the time growing up. I get together with my family often, more specifically my parents/aunt + uncle and we play games and listen to music all night. My mom, dad, and uncle play this song everytime which I admit has become old butttt we are obsessed and scream the lyrics everytime. Its a family staple songggg but also the lyrics are beautiful and it tells a good story. Its quite literally about jane's addiction ...
Jane says, "I'm done with Sergio
He treat me like a ragdoll"
She hides the television
Said, "I don't owe him nothin'
But if, oh, he come back again, tell him, wait right here for me
Or try again tomorrow
I'm gonna kick tomorrow (knowing addiction too well that's what they all say)
Jane says, "Have you seen my wig around
I feel naked without it"
She knows they all want her to go
But that's okay, man, she don't like them anyway
Jane says, "I'm goin' away to Spain when I get my money saved (this song is based off a real jane and apparently she got sober and ended up visiting spain :))
Gonna start tomorrow
Well, she get mad, then she start to cry
She take a swing that she can't hit! (she cant hit line so amazing to scream out loud)
She don't mean no harm, she just don't know
(Don't know, don't know)
What else to do about it
Then Jane goes to the store at 8
She walks up on St. Andrews
She waits and a-gets her dinner there
She pulls her dinner from her pocket
Jane says, "I ain't never been in love, I don't know what it is" (heartbreakingggg)
She only knows if someone wants her
anyways awesome song!

Impossible to choose one fave lyric ever but this is so perfectly simple and well-crafted:
"What good is happiness to me
If I've to wield it carefully?"

“It's that chemical cut that I can get down with
Up like the moon and out like the hounds
A dangerous disposition somehow refracted in light, reflected in sound
I'm coiled up like the venomous serpent
Tangled in your trance and I'm certain
You have got your hooks in me
I know, I know, the way that it goes
You get what you give, you reap what you sow
And I can see you in my fate
I know, I know, I am what I am
The mouth of the wolf, the eyes of the lamb
So darling, will you saturate?
And just like the rain
You cast the dust into nothing
And wash out the salt from my hands
So touch me again
I feel my shadow dissolving
Will you cleanse me with pleasure?”
they are the epitome of hopeless yearning and that is all i look for in a song
these lyrics wash my brain

Completely done with university now just waiting for graduation in July. For those who are interested my dissertation was on how music streaming platforms have individualised how we listen to and experience music

My school did a workshop about it when I was like 10 and I think the amount of care and dedication it takes to hand crafting each and every frame is so cool. When its done well you get a really stylised films, I’m thinking like Chicken Run, Wallace and Gromit, Coraline, Fantastic Mr. Fox, ParaNorman and The Box Trolls all of which I loved as a kid and every time I rewatch them I get the same sense of childlike wonder I did when I watched them the first time. I know there’s a lot of crossover with CGI now when making them but just the concept of stop motion animation is really cool.
