In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Boy stop
It's about to be a girl fight
Some new shit yeah
Brook Valentine
Uh huh uh huh
Big Boi

Sending this one out to all the ladies who got beef with another bitch
Just walk to that bitch and tell her

It's about to be a what!
Girl fight!
We 'bout to swang them thangs
We 'bout to throw them blows
We 'bout to swang them thangs
It's about to be a what, girl fight!
There she goes talkin' her mess
All around town
Making me stress
I need to get this off my chest
And if her friend want some then she'll be next
It really ain't that complicated
Ya'll walking 'round looking all frustrated
Want some plates come on let's make it
Ya actin' real hard but I know ya'll fakin'
I wasn't really the one who startin' this
Really don't know why you're talkin' shit
You're about to catch one right in your lip
It's about to be a what, girl fight!
I wasn't really the one who startin' this
Really don't know why you're talkin' shit

We 'bout to swang them thangs
We 'bout to throw them blows

We're on our way to the neighborhood
The reason why we comin' is understood

We're down the ride
Steppin' your hair's pulled up and your girls outside
Don't be tryna call your cousin on me
Don't forget that I got some wit me
'Bout to go real far bout to swang them thangs
'Bout to el elbows all in your grain
I wasn't really the one who startin' this
Really don't know why you're talkin' shit
You're about to catch one right in your lip
It's about to be a what, girl fight!
We 'bout to throw them blows
We 'bout to swang them thangs
We 'bout to throw them blows

Oh I know you don't want me to spend your dough
Oh I know
Oh I know you don't want me to spend your dough
But I'm about to own your things
Oh snap these bitches they act like cats
In the middle of the dance floor now they're preparing to scrap
They're takin' out their scrunchies, and they're pullin' off their press-ons
The one on the right is the girlfriend (What)
And the one on the left is the other woman
Someone please call the security these girls too purty
To get down to the nitty titty
I mean the nitty gritty
I mean her titties pretty
I'm trippin' bein' silly willy man
We 'bout to throw them blows
We 'bout to throw them blows

Now you ain't talkin' noise no more
We 'bout to throw them blows (don't act like you don't know)

We 'bout to swang them thangs
Saw you peeking out your window

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
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.
Holiday
Bee Gees
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.
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/
Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
This is a great anthem to any girl in the hood that needed to prove herself. Fighting in the hood is kind of like a right of passage. In middle school I noticed some girls were targeting me and I didn't know why. It was so annoying. Then finally i had enough and threw down. After that everyone left me alone. Fights happen a lot in the hood. Way more than in the burbs. I think women from the hood are harder and don't take verbal abuse lightly and aren't really scared to get their ass whooped.
