Aed or AED may refer to:
Aed, or Aodh, is the prince of the Daoine Sidhe and a god of the underworld in Irish mythology. He is known from inscriptions as the eldest son of Lir, High King of the Tuatha de Dannan, and Aobh, a daughter of Bodb Dearg.
According to tradition, Aoibh died in childbirth after bearing Lir four children (two sets of twins): Fionnuala, Aodh, Fiachra, and Conn of the hundred battles. Aoife, the second wife of Lir, and in some versions of the story, the sister of Aobh, was very jealous of the children and conspired to kill them on a journey to see Bodb Dearg, the former King of the Tuatha de Dannan. But for love of the Children of Lir, the servants of Aoife would not slay the children, and so she cursed them to live as swans for 900 years: 300 upon Lake Darvra, 300 in the English Channel, and 300 on the open sea.
Legend says they kept their voices and learned all the songs and tales of Ireland, as well as the many languages brought by travelers from distant places.
There are numerous variations on the culmination of the story after the breaking of Aoife's curse, and most are obviously influenced by stories from Christianity. For more on the story, see the article on the Children of Lir.
Aodh (/ˈeɪ/; Scottish Gaelic: Áed; Welsh: Aed) is an Irish word of Indo-European origin, originally meaning "fire".Aodh and its many variants are used today in the Irish and Scottish Gaelic languages as a given name for both sexes, although feminine forms are less varied and less common. Feminine forms of the name include Aodhnait and Aodhamair. It appears in even more variants as a surname. As a surname, the root or a variant may be prefixed by O, Ó, or Ui (meaning "from" or "descendant of") or Mac or Mc (meaning "son of").
The name was originally related to an Irish god of the underworld. The masculine given name Hugh is a common anglicization, although the names are entirely etymologically unrelated. (see Hughes (surname), Hughes (given name)).
It was also used in Roman Britain as a native form of the Latin name Dominus.
Pet forms of the name formed with the diminutive -an include Aedán, Ádhán, and Aodhán, names which are sometimes anglicized as Aidan, Aiden, and Edan. A double diminutive is Aodhagán and its modern form Aogán.Máedóc and Mogue and their Welsh form Madog are formed from the affectionate prefix mo- and the separate diminutive -og.

C'mon...
I know there's nothing to say
Someone has taken my place
When times go bad
When times go rough
Won't you lay me down in tall grass
And let me do my stuff
I know I got nothing on you
I know there's nothing to do
When times go bad
And you can't get enough
Won't you lay me down in the tall grass
And let me do my stuff
Down, down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down

One thing I think you should know
I ain't gonna miss you when you go
Been down so long
I've been tossed around enough
Ah, Couldn't you just
Let me go down and do my stuff
I know you're hopin' to find
Someone's gonna give you piece of mind
When times go bad
When times go rough
Won't you lay me down in tall grass
And let me do my stuff
Down, down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down
