This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
In my life I see where I've been
I said that I'd never fall again
Within myself I was wrong
My searching ain't over and over
I know that
When you love a woman
You see your world inside her eyes
When you love a woman
(Well) You know she's standing by your side
A joy that lasts forever
There's a band of gold that shines
Waiting somewhere, oh, yeah
If I can't believe that someone is true
To fall in love is so hard to do
I hope and pray tonight
Somewhere you're thinking of me girl
Yes I know, I know that
It's enough to make you cry
When you see her walking by
And you look into her eyes
When you love a woman
When you love, love, love, love
When you love a woman
You see your world inside her eyes
I said that I'd never fall again
Within myself I was wrong
My searching ain't over and over
I know that
When you love a woman
You see your world inside her eyes
When you love a woman
(Well) You know she's standing by your side
A joy that lasts forever
There's a band of gold that shines
Waiting somewhere, oh, yeah
If I can't believe that someone is true
To fall in love is so hard to do
I hope and pray tonight
Somewhere you're thinking of me girl
Yes I know, I know that
It's enough to make you cry
When you see her walking by
And you look into her eyes
When you love a woman
When you love, love, love, love
When you love a woman
You see your world inside her eyes

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
Just A Little Lovin'

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/
American Town

Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
"when you love a woman, you see your world inside her eyes"... if anything sweeter and more profound has ever been written, i've never heard it
I never thought Steve Perry and Journey would do anything together again, so I really like this song.
This is a very subdued song lyrically, but the music that accompanies the vocals make the lyrics have a weight they certainly would not had this just been a non-musical prose poem. The tonality of the singer's voice is so accurate.
This is a great song about a happy, healthy marriage between a man and a woman. The man is saying how great his wife is, how he can see his whole world inside his her eyes, and on her finger is a band of gold, her wedding band, that shines. There is simply no greater thing than a loving bond between a man and his wife, which is his soulmate. One of the best Journey songs EVER! Steve Perry's vocals are top-notch in this song.
I can't even put into words how this song affects me each time I hear it. Steve Perry is phenomenal in the feelings, emotions, and passion he puts into this song. It's one of the best I've ever heard.
