This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Did I ever tell you that I really love you
And I think about you all day?
I really miss you and wish I could kiss you
But why are you so far away?
[Chorus]
Since you've been gone
I've thought over and over about you inside my
Head
And where I went wrong, where I went wrong
Everyday
I've been thinkin' a lot about all of the things
You'd say
Since I went away
Since I went away
I guess I could call you
And ask you "How are you?"
But I really don't have much to say
I sit all alone
And I stare at the phone
And I hope that you're doing o.k.
[Chorus]
And I think about you all day?
I really miss you and wish I could kiss you
But why are you so far away?
[Chorus]
Since you've been gone
I've thought over and over about you inside my
Head
And where I went wrong, where I went wrong
Everyday
I've been thinkin' a lot about all of the things
You'd say
Since I went away
Since I went away
I guess I could call you
And ask you "How are you?"
But I really don't have much to say
I sit all alone
And I stare at the phone
And I hope that you're doing o.k.
[Chorus]

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
This song has some kind of a weird feel which addicts you to listening to it.
yeah i know. the ataris are so porking addicting. it bother me. but this is a good song, and it reminds me of my cousin and her boyfriend...
wow, really intense. Its about a guy who dumped his girlfriend and is now feeling regret because he still loves her but she doesn't love him.
he left her, now he wants to go back to her but she loves someone else. its quite sad.
I really like this song. I can listen to it over and over again.
Kris roe writes these songs with personal meaning in them. Therefore he wrote this song from his heart. He broke it off with a girl that he didn't know how deeply he loved her, but now he realises just how much she meant to him. He realises just too late. He's too afraid to call her or do anything about his feelings because of how she might feel when he left her.. I think it is quite sad, i love Kris Roe he can have me anyday!
No LJ! Kris can have me anyday...or we could share him ::smiles:: I thought this was about his life before he went to California..he didn't realize how much he loved it until he left it...but now he has a life in CA that prevents him from going back to IN for good..::shrugs::
