Stereo Hearts! - Clash of the Rockers

I don't know that I've ever heard a better comparison in my life than that of music and love.


Stereo Hearts is a song by Gym Class Heros ft. Adam Levine(of Maroon 5). 


I cannot tell you how much it just reached out at me with the words that had a double meaning of music and love... They compare people to records and boom-boxes... and hearts to stereos, of course. 


Maybe it's the way that they make the words seem so real and blunt or maybe it's the voices of those that perform it. Whatever it is, Travis McCoy and Adam Levine have made me fall in love with music all over again.


--------------------------------------------------


My heart's a stereo, it beats for you, so listen close.
Hear my thoughts in every note.
Make me your radio, and turn me up when you feel low.
This melody was meant for you, just sing along to my stereo...

Gym Class Hereoes, baby...

If I was just another dusty record on the shelve, would you blow me off and play me like everybody else?
If I ask you to scratch my back, could you manage that, like it read well, check it Travie, I can handle that.
Furthermore, I apologize for any skipping tracks... Its just the last girl that played me left a couple cracks.
I used to used to used to used to, now I'm over that, 'cause holding grudges over love is ancient artifacts.
If I could only find a note to make you understand, I'd sing it softly in your ear and grab you by the hand,
Just Keep it stuck inside your head, like your favorite tune. 
You know my heart is a stereo that only plays for you...

My heart's a stereo, it beats for you, so listen close.
Hear my thoughts in every note.
Make me your radio, and turn me up when you feel low.
This melody was meant for you, so sing along to my stereo...
Oh oh oh oh To my stereo...
Oh oh oh oh So sing along to my stereo...

Let's go...

If I was an old school, fifty pound boombox, would you hold me on your shoulder, wherever you walk?
Would you turn my volume up in front of the cops, and crank it higher everytime they told you to stop?
And all I ask is that you don't get mad at me, when you have to purchase mad D batteries.
Appreciate every mixtape your friends make... you never know we come and go like on the interstate.
I think finally found a note to make you understand... If you can hear it, sing along and take me by the hands.
Keep myself inside your head, like your favorite tune.
You know my heart's a stereo that only plays for you...

My heart's a stereo, it beats for you, so listen close,
Hear my thoughts in every note.
Make me your radio, and turn me up when you feel low.
This melody was meant for you, so sing along to my stereo...
Oh oh oh oh To my stereo...
Oh oh oh oh So sing along to my stereo...

I only pray you never leave me behind,
Because good music can be so hard to find.
I take your hand and hold it closer to mine...
Thought love was dead, but now you're changing my mind.

My heart's a stereo, it beats for you, so listen close,
Hear my thoughts in every note.
Make me your radio, and turn me up when you feel low.
This melody was meant for you, so sing along to my stereo...
Oh oh oh oh To my stereo...
Oh oh oh oh So sing along to my stereo...
Yea...
