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.
Baby baby, don't you cry
Wipe away that tear from your eye
Sailing on a sea of blue
In my dreams there's a place for me and you
Baby babe don't say a word
In this life you get all that you deserve
I'm sorry that I made you cry
I can't believe that I'm just an ordinary guy
When all is said and done
It's all only won by one
And now I'm 29 years old
And I'm a million miles away
Hey babe, don't treat it like it's a fucking luxury.
Baby babe, don't say a word
In this life you get all that you deserve
I'm sorry that I made you cry
I can't believe that I'm just an ordinary guy
I can't believe I made you cry
I can't believe that made you cry
I can't believe this makes you cry
I see you
I need you
I leave you behind
I've learned my lesson
O.K I'm bored now.
Wipe away that tear from your eye
Sailing on a sea of blue
In my dreams there's a place for me and you
Baby babe don't say a word
In this life you get all that you deserve
I'm sorry that I made you cry
I can't believe that I'm just an ordinary guy
When all is said and done
It's all only won by one
And now I'm 29 years old
And I'm a million miles away
Hey babe, don't treat it like it's a fucking luxury.
Baby babe, don't say a word
In this life you get all that you deserve
I'm sorry that I made you cry
I can't believe that I'm just an ordinary guy
I can't believe I made you cry
I can't believe that made you cry
I can't believe this makes you cry
I see you
I need you
I leave you behind
I've learned my lesson
O.K I'm bored now.

Gentle Hour

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,
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/

Baby baby, don't you cry Wipe away that tear from your eye Sailing on a sea of blue In my dreams theres a place for me and you
Where all your hopes and all your cares They all get out through tiny tears.

When all and all is said and done It can be only won by one
And now I'm 29 years old And I'm a million miles away I'm a million miles away
