Lady GaGa; Bad Romance

I can't see anything healthy about this romance. The song has the word love in it over 30 times, but it is nothing but vacuous of love. It should more accurately read, "I want your hate..." Like a Bacchic ritual that tears at itself. That loves chaos and feeds off of its own dispair. It loves only it own boring self. Lip locked with its own grotesque specitcal. Never finding peace or rest. Real love has more courage than portrayed in this song, so it cannot be a song about love. Sounds like poor counsel.

Train; Hey Soul Sister

The song is about passive love. Love not yet attained. It is all about his love. no evidence of her active love for him. If it turns toward aquiring the object of his affection, active, recipricated love it would be higher in purgatory just below earthly paradise.

Beyonce Knowles; Halo

The song is about the transition from self to love of another. It has no excessive love of self. It it not blaming others for its state. It has humility. It is hopeful. But because it love grounded in a another person it is clearly not int heaven. But Heaven is the clear trajectory.

Flaming Lips; Spoonful Weighs a Ton

The image is shockingly close to the Paradiso canto 22-26, as Dante climbs Jacobs Ladder towards the image of divine wisdom. "...Yelling as loud as they can/The doubters were all stunned/Heard louder than a gun/The sound they made was love

Flaming Lips; Race For The Prize

Like warriors these "Two scientists" show fortitude "Racing for the good of all mankind...so determined". The song oozes virtue. No hubis. "Under the micro scope/Hope against Hope". Like Cacciaguida who oozes the early virtues of florence. The hearty virtues which build a residual surplus which fortify future generations.

Paramore;Misguided Ghost

The narator in the song has humility..."We learn to make mistakes".The narator is not wishing harm on a neighbor, so they are not in lower purgatory where the proud, envious and wrathful purge. They have a quest "Would someone care to classify Our broken hearts and twisted minds/So I can find someone to rely on". They seek community.

The narator has no rest. They is running... "and run from them". So they are not slothful. They seem to suffer from excessive love of secondary good. There is no rest in secondary goods. They are transiant. Hence no rest. No peace. They suffer from a defective love of a secondard "good" which I do not sense to be covetousness of material. It is about "some one to rely on". The restlessness needs to be worked out in purgatory in the area for defective relience on transient love. Love in purgatory is love in the transient, not the eternal--that is why it is still called lustful. They are on step from earthly paradise which is attainment of what they seek and redirected toward eternal love
