In the record industry, a single is a song usually used from a current or upcoming album to promote the album. Singles are distributed through a number of ways; originally, they were packaged as "single" records with one or two other songs and sold before the release of the album.

I was going to link the video, but the the audio on all the videos just doesn't do the song justice. This song is amazing with headphones on, or through a high definition 6.2 surround sound system, :D
The District Sleeps Alone Tonight - The Postal Service
Smeared black ink.
Your palms are sweaty,
And I'm barely listening
To last demands.
I'm staring at the asphalt wondering
"What's buried underneath where I am?"
(Where I am)
I'll wear my badge:
A vinyl sticker with big block letters
Adhered to my chest.
It tells your new friends
"I am a visitor here... I am not permanent."
And the only thing keeping me dry is...
You seem so out of context,
In this gaudy apartment complex.
A stranger with your door key,
Explaining that I'm just visiting.
And I am finally seeing
Why I was the one worth leaving.
(I was the one worth leaving)
D.C. sleeps alone tonight.
(Where I am)

(I was the one worth leaving)
(Where I am)
The District sleeps alone tonight
After the bars turn out their lights.
(Where I am)
And send the autos swerving
Into the loneliest evening.
(Where I am)
And I am finally seeing
Why I was the one worth leaving.
Why I was the one worth leaving.
Why I was the one worth leaving.
Why I was the one worth leaving.

Instant fan of this band, after hearing it on my iTunes.
Also if my drummer mate would give me his songs lyrics, I'd post the rest of them, but until then, you'll have to suffer without...
Rest Of My Life - Less Than Jake
I fell asleep last Saturday
Underneath polluted skies
I walked alone on those Jersey nights, and I
Saw the boardwalk start to fall
The emptiness starts to drown
The quiet corners off this town, and I...
Late last night, I made my plans
It was the only thing I felt I could do
Said goodbye, to my best friend
Sometimes there's no one left to tell you the truth
It's gonna kill me... The rest of my life
Let me apologize while I'm still alive
I know it's hard to face all of my past mistakes
It's gonna kill me for the rest of my life
This is my all time low
Somehow it feels so familiar
Somehow it seems so familiar
I feel like letting go
And every second that goes by
I'm screaming out for a second try
Said goodbye, to my best friend
Sometimes there's no one left to tell you the truth
It's gonna kill me... The rest of my life
Let me apologize while I'm still alive
I know it's hard to face all of my past mistakes
I've got to live with them rest of my life
This is the mess I've made
These are the words I can't erase
This is my life support, shutting down, for the final time
And it twists like a blade
And kills me for the rest of my life
If you won't forgive me
The rest of my life
Let me apologize while I'm still alive
I know it's hard to face all of my past mistakes
It's gonna kill me for the rest of my life...

Leave Out All The Rest - Linkin Park
I dreamed I was missing, you were so scared
But no one would listen, 'cause no one else cared
After my dreaming, I woke with this fear
What am I leaving when I'm done here?
So if you're asking me, I want you to know
When my time comes, forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed
Don't resent me, and when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory, leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest, don't be afraid
I've taken my beating, I've shared what I made
I'm strong on the surface, not all the way through
I've never been perfect, but neither have you
So if you're asking me, I want you to know
When my time comes, forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed
Don't resent me, and when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory, leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest
Forgetting all the hurt inside you've learned to hide so well
Pretending someone else can come and save me from myself
I can't be who you are
When my time comes, forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed
Don't resent me, and when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory, leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest
Forgetting all the hurt inside you've learned to hide so well
Pretending someone else can come and save me from myself
I can't be who you are.

Break My Fall - DJ Tiesto
Break my fall
I found what was missing inside you
Break my fall
We enter the room
You brighten the darkness my love
In moments with you
There is no end in me or beginning to you
We move to the floor
A purpose combined my love
Like the motions of stars
Our dynamic symmetry combines
Break my fall
I found what was missing inside you
Break my fall
Na na na na na na na
Break my fall
I found what is missing inside you
Break my fall
Na na na na na na na
Always with you
Connected by blood my love
A purpose fulfilled
You're my light in this dark, dark world
This unspoken within
I feel complete my love
The moments apart
I'm craving your light in the dark
Break my fall
I found what is missing inside you
Break my fall
Na na na na na na na
Break my fall
I found what is missing inside you
Break my fall
Na na na na na na na

For You I Will (Confidence) - Teddy Geiger
Wondering the streets, in a world underneath it all
Nothing seems to be, nothing tastes as sweet
As what I can't have
Like you and the way that you're twisting your hair
round your finger
Tonight I'm not afraid to tell you
What I feel about you.
I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have
and cannon ball into the water
I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have
For you I will
For you I will
Forgive me if I stutter
From all of the clutter in my head
'Cause I could fall asleep in those eyes
Like a water bed
Do I seem familiar, I've crossed you in hallways
a thousand times, no more camouflage
I want to be exposed, and not be afraid to fall.
I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have
And cannon ball into the water
I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have
For you I will
You always want what you can't have
But I've got to try
I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have
For you I will
For you I will
For you I will
For you
If I could dim the lights in the mall
And create a mood I would
Shout out your name so it echos in every room
I would
That's what I'd do, That's what I'd do to get through to you
I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have
And cannon ball into the water
I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have
For you I will
You always want what you can't have
But I've got to try
I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have
For you I will
For you I will
For you I will
For you I will

Over My Head (Cable Car) - The Fray
I never knew
I never knew that everything was falling through
That everyone I knew was waiting on a queue
To turn and run when all I needed was the truth
But that's how it's got to be
It's coming down to nothing more than apathy
I'd rather run the other way than stay and see
The smoke and who's still standing when it clears
Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind
She's on your mind
Let's rearrange
I wish you were a stranger I could disengage
Just say that we agree and then never change
Soften a bit until we all just get along
But that's disregard
Find another friend and you discard
As you lose the argument in a cable car
Hanging above as the canyon comes between
Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind
She's on your mind
Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind
She's on your mind
And suddenly I become a part of your past
I'm becoming the part that don't last
I'm losing you and its effortless
Without a sound we lose sight of the ground
In the throw around
Never thought that you wanted to bring it down
I won't let it go down till we torch it ourselves
And everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind
She's on your mind
Everyone knows
She's on your mind
Everyone knows I'm in over my head
I'm in over my head
I'm in over...
Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind
She's on your mind

| Robbie: | The Crocodile Hunter movie was coming up, so the boys had a crack at a theme song. And were dared to throw in a Shakira quote - let's see if you can pick it. |
| Gatesy: | Now, my new Crocodile Hunter movie is going to be huuuuuge, combining all the elements of great Aussie movies, like "Careful He Might Hear You", "The Sum of Us", and "Mad Max". We got Midnight Oil and Jebediah in to do the music, and those crazy whackjobs Tripod to do the lyrics and the words. |
| Gatesy: | Outside the steaming deserts of Pine Gaps, |
| The swamps of Uluru. | |
| The snow-capped peaks of Alice Springs, | |
| The desert monkeys of Broome. | |
| Scod: | You'll find him with his hunting stick, |
| And his hunting hat and gloves. | |
| Yon: | He's not afraid of anything - no missiles or no guns. |
| He's not afraid of ordering seafood on a Monday. | |
| Gatesy and Scod: | But ever since the generals dropped their bombs at Katherine Gorge, |
| The crocodiles mutated into giant beasts of war. | |
| Super-intelligent-nightmare-visions-of-the-future, | |
| Somebody's got to stop them. | |
| Who's going to save the world, | |
| Now the crocodiles have taken over? | |
| Radioactive beasts, | |
| Feasting on the children. | |
| Tripod: | Only one man can, |
| Only one man can. | |
| Gatesy: | The mighty stubby-wearing Hunter Man. |
| Yon: | He's got all the toys: |
| A post-apocalyptic rocket car, | |
| Tina Turner in chain mail, | |
| Just to add a bit of glamour. | |
| A little kid with a silver boomerang, | |
| That'll cut your hand clean off. | |
| Scod: | Morry (?) Fields! |
| Gatesy and Scod: | The crocodiles make their outposts, |
| Out of disused cars and aircrafts. | |
| Scod: | The heads of past croc-hunters, |
| Gatesy and Scod: | On pikes along the road. |
| Scod: | There's Paul Hogan's head, |
| Glistening in the sun. | |
| The Leyland Brothers, ??, | |
| Something for everyone. | |
| Gatesy: | And as the Hunter faces them alone, |
| His battle cry rings across the sun-bleached bone: | |
| Gatesy: | "Lucky that my breasts are small and humble, |
| so you don't confuse them with mountains." | |
| Gatesy and Scod: | Who's going to save the world, |
| Now the crocodiles have taken over? | |
| Radioactive beasts, | |
| Feasting on the children. | |
| Gatesy: | Jebediah! |
| Tripod: | (Jebediah-style) Only one man can, |
| Only one man can. | |
| Gatesy: | The mighty stubby-wearing Hunter Man. Yeah! |
| Gatesy and Scod: | Who's going to save the world, |
| Now the crocodiles have taken over? | |
| Radioactive beasts, | |
| Feasting on the children. | |
| Gatesy: | Everybody sing! |
| Tripod: | Only one man can, |
| Only one man can. | |
| Gatesy: | The mighty stubby-wearing Hunter Man. |
| Yon: | Yeah! |

If you don't get it, or need any form of explaining, then I say to you "Sir, or Madam, you are a complete idiot."
