(Chorus):
I can't go nowhere unless you're by my side
I gotta heve you here I said right here by my side

I can't roam the town unless you're by my side
I gotta have you around, right here by my side

So where's my moonshine
'Cause I'll be all up in the club with you yeah
So where's my moonshine
You know I spend my last dub for you yeah
So where's my moonshine
I feel so nice with you yeah
So where's my moonshine
want to spend my whole life with you yeah

I snuck into this club when I was 15
And I met my girl at the bar, such a sweet thing
Every time I held her she would always kiss me
Every touch of her lips would always make me tipsy
I told her, man I love you
Pulled her to the dance floor
And that's when she whispered
Be careful what you ask for
I grabbed her by the waist
And I sat her on the table
Explained how the heartburn
She's giving me is painful
And now you want to leave
'Cause you feel empty inside
Well none of my friends trust me with you to drive
I'm so into you, I hope you're feeling it
I need you in my life and the reason is

(Chorus)
How many times I gotta tell you
Why you stressin' me for
Yeah I see you need attention
I ain't tryin' to ignore
I gotta straighten up now, I got work to do
You want me to drop everything
So it surrounds you
Man I love you so much
It makes me sick to my stomach
And I love it how I can vomit
And you think nothing of it
I never meant to argue with you, please forgive
Girl I need you in my life and the reason is

(Chorus)
Ya see my moonshine
She keeps me warm when it rains
I forget my problems when she eases the pain
And my friends keep telling me to call it a day
She don't love ya Savage, it's all in your brain
See I don't believe a word
That you say to my face
I'm in love and I know she feels the same
I'll buy you all the ice you want
And I'll keep you safe
Man I love my alcohol, what more can I say

(Chorus)

    I always thought it was Savage feat Akon. Regardless, mint song. I think it's about alcohol, which has such a place in his life it's like a girlfriend, haha. He sets it up so you think he's rapping 'bout his gf 'til he hits you with the punchline, "I love my alcohol, what more can I say?"

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
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
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/
