Flogging Molly - Revolution

Frontman Dave King explained the song's meaning to Alternative Press magazine: "It doesn't necessary mean, 'Let's all get together and have a huge, big revolution.' It's about changing yourself from within. I know a few people who, in the economic downturn, have lost their jobs and started doing something completely different. They've tried opening a restaurant or opening a petting zoo.
It's about the worst of times and getting through that and rising above it. Sometimes it takes a tragedy for something good to come out of it. It's a positive-energy kind of thing. I want to project a positive energy. I think no matter what you write about, you have to convey an element of hope."

Foo Fighters - Walk

The Foo Fighters performed this song at the 2012 Grammy Awards. They won five Grammys at the ceremony; Best Rock Performance and Best Rock Song for this track, Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance for "White Limo," Best Rock Album for Wasting Light and Best Long Form Music Video for the Foo's documentary Back and Forth. Grohl said as he accepted the award for Best Rock Performance: "We made this one in my garage with some microphones and a tape machine. The human element of making music is what's important. Singing into a microphone, learning to play your instrument ... It's not about what goes on in a computer."

Kylie Minogue - In Your Eyes

The video for this song featured an extension of the futuristic theme first introduced in the music video for "Can't Get You Out of My Head" the previous year. Minogue and her artistic director William Baker had become interested in the street interpretation of robotic, jerky movements and included this in the video. The costumes also represent this interest and were described by Baker as being a mix of "hip hop chic with sci-fi lunacy".

Richard Marx - Right Here Waiting

Marx wrote this song on the road as a love letter to his wife, actress Cynthia Rhodes. In a 2010 interview, Marx told the Indian newspaper The Indian Express the story behind the song: "I wrote the song for my wife Cynthia who was in South Africa shooting for a film. We were not married then and I wanted to meet her because I had not seen her for a few months. But my visa application was rejected and when I came back I wrote this song which was more of a letter from me to her.
It was the fastest song I wrote, in barely 20 minutes. And this was the time when there was no Skype and Social networking so I had to ship the track to her. The song was very personal and was not intended to go public. But my friends pursued me to record it."

fun. - We Are Young

This song captures the moments of youthful exuberance that come with a memorable night out - the kind of night you tell stories about for many years to come. Lead singer Nate Ruess says the lyrics were inspired by one specific night, after "my worst drinking night of all time." Ruess told Rolling Stone that he was kicked out of a taxi cab for puking all over it. "The cabbie was demanding all this money, and all I could do was stand on the corner with my head against the wall. It took me another day before I was a functioning adult and could actually write down the verses," he said.

Bush - Baby Come Home

The song's music video was directed by Todd Stefani, who is the younger brother of No Doubt singer and Gavin Rossdale's wife, Gwen Stefani. It was Stefani's first full length video, though the band had worked with him on a number of occasions previously. Rossdale explained the clip's concept to Spinner: "The 'Baby Come Home' video is the story of two people, disconnected and lost in the city; unable to find the right words to stay together," he said. "They find comfort in their passions. It stars Katherine Cowgill from the Los Angeles Ballet and was filmed in downtown Los Angeles - the original 'city of dreams.'"

Jack's Mannequin - Release Me

Alternative rock band Jack's Mannequin's third studio album, People and Things is considered by frontman Andrew McMahon to be a "relationship record." He explained: "My goal with many of the songs was to strip away the flowery language and sentiment attached to newer love and replace it with starker, less blinded language about more binding love. In the time following the last Jack's album the people in my world were moving in together, getting married, trying to find 'real jobs' and reconciling new lives that looked a lot less like youth than some of us cared for."
This is the second single from the album.

Nickelback - This Means War

Nickelback open their seventh studio album, Here and Now, with this up-tempo song. Chad Kroeger explained the album title to MTV News: "It's called Here and Now because it just represents a snapshot in time, a snapshot of who we were when we made it," he said. "And of all the names we had, it was better than Wizard Beating."

Adele - Set Fire To The Rain

Many of the songs on 21 such as this one are about the heartbreaking ending of Adele's first real relationship. She told MTV News in an interview to plug the album's release: "It broke my heart when I wrote this record, so the fact that people are taking it to their hearts is like the best way to recover. 'Cause I'm still not fully recovered. It's going to take me 10 years to recover, I think, from the way I feel about my last relationship. It was the biggest deal in my entire life to date. He made me totally hungry. He was older, he was successful in his own right, whereas my boyfriends before were my age and not really doing much. And he got me interested in film and literature and food and wine and traveling and politics and history, and those were things I was never, ever interested in. I was interested in going clubbing and getting drunk."
