GusGus goes extra meta in "Add This Song"
Add this song to your listPlay it til it no more exist
Through the pain of the snowIs there nowhere to goLike I'm stuck in the stateOf no state at all
As I wandered alone in the darkest nightHeard this song at the raveAnd it saved my life
(i did add it to my list)

Tom Waits, "Hold On"
Down by the Riverside motelIt's ten below and fallingBy a ninety-nine cent storeShe closed her eyes and started swayingBut it's so hard to dance that wayWhen it's cold and there's no musicOh, your old hometown's so far awayBut inside your head there's a record that's playingA song called "Hold On"
