Clearly you'll run
Clearly you'll run from me
It's tradition you'll see
A tradition you're bound to be
Run for the trees
Go for the hill above
That's exactly the treatment
That we thought was good enough
Give me the inch
I'll take a mile
Throw me your things
I'll take you home to mine
So give me your hand
I was so wrong
I was so wrong about you
It's a natural reaction
But natural's what can't be true
So now is the time
Now is the time for us
To give exactly the treatment
That we thought was good enough
Give me the inch
I'll take a mile
Throw me your things
I'll take you home to mine
So give me your hand
Clearly you'll run
Clearly you'll run
Clearly you'll run
Clearly you'll run from me
Clearly you'll run
Clearly you'll run
Clearly you'll run
Clearly you'll run from me
Clearly you'll run
Clearly you'll run from me
Clearly you'll run
Clearly you'll run from me
Clearly you'll run
Clearly you'll run from me
Clearly you'll run
Clearly you'll run from me
Clearly you'll run from me
It's tradition you'll see
A tradition you're bound to be
Run for the trees
Go for the hill above
That's exactly the treatment
That we thought was good enough
Give me the inch
I'll take a mile
Throw me your things
I'll take you home to mine
So give me your hand
I was so wrong
I was so wrong about you
It's a natural reaction
But natural's what can't be true
So now is the time
Now is the time for us
To give exactly the treatment
That we thought was good enough
Give me the inch
I'll take a mile
Throw me your things
I'll take you home to mine
So give me your hand
Clearly you'll run
Clearly you'll run
Clearly you'll run
Clearly you'll run from me
Clearly you'll run
Clearly you'll run
Clearly you'll run
Clearly you'll run from me
Clearly you'll run
Clearly you'll run from me
Clearly you'll run
Clearly you'll run from me
Clearly you'll run
Clearly you'll run from me
Clearly you'll run
Clearly you'll run from me

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,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
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/
American Town
Ed Sheeran
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.
Love the humming at the start of the song, it's lovely! The singers accent really comes through here :) it's a natural reaction, but natural's what cant be true that bit is sang sooo well! just an amazingly pulled together song. BUY IT!!!
