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.
Another war, a thousand dead
Passed from the screen into my head.
Upset for a minute but in a while
I change channel and my anger is replaced with a smile.
Suffered destruction of my mind,
The same as the rest of all mankind,
Blockades the head from everything
That makes you feel guilty, sick or sad.
Still I believe there's got to be a way
That makes everybody feel O.K.
But when I listen to what people have to say,
I think it seems like they are all afraid
To react, and take stand
Against this ignorance, that rules our world.
Infect people's mind, with virus you can't find.
A gigantic reformation of this whole society
Is the only way to see the end of this malady spreading rapidly.
Keep up your spirit, keep your dream,
Keep up your hope and self-esteem.
Try to react on inequity,
Together work to achieve equality.
Suffered destruction of my mind,
The same as the rest of all mankind,
Blockades the head from everything
That makes you feel guilty, sick or sad.
Still I believe there's got to be a way
That makes everybody feel O.K.
But when I listen to what people have to say,
I think it seems like they are all afraid
To react, and take stand
Against this ignorance, that rules our world.
Infect people's mind, with virus you can't find.
A gigantic reformation of this whole society
Is the only way to see the end of this malady spreading rapidly.
Spreading rapidly.
Passed from the screen into my head.
Upset for a minute but in a while
I change channel and my anger is replaced with a smile.
Suffered destruction of my mind,
The same as the rest of all mankind,
Blockades the head from everything
That makes you feel guilty, sick or sad.
Still I believe there's got to be a way
That makes everybody feel O.K.
But when I listen to what people have to say,
I think it seems like they are all afraid
To react, and take stand
Against this ignorance, that rules our world.
Infect people's mind, with virus you can't find.
A gigantic reformation of this whole society
Is the only way to see the end of this malady spreading rapidly.
Keep up your spirit, keep your dream,
Keep up your hope and self-esteem.
Try to react on inequity,
Together work to achieve equality.
Suffered destruction of my mind,
The same as the rest of all mankind,
Blockades the head from everything
That makes you feel guilty, sick or sad.
Still I believe there's got to be a way
That makes everybody feel O.K.
But when I listen to what people have to say,
I think it seems like they are all afraid
To react, and take stand
Against this ignorance, that rules our world.
Infect people's mind, with virus you can't find.
A gigantic reformation of this whole society
Is the only way to see the end of this malady spreading rapidly.
Spreading rapidly.

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'
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/
Magical

Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
