@[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.
They said there'll be snow at Christmas
They said there'll be peace on Earth
But instead it just kept on raining
A veil of tears for the virgin birth
I remember one Christmas morning
A winters light and a distant choir
And the peal of a bell
And that Christmas Tree smell
And eyes full of tinsel and fire
They sold me a dream of Christmas
They sold me a Silent Night
And they told me a fairy story
'Till I believed in the Israelite
And I believed in Father Christmas
And I looked to the sky with excited eyes
'Till I woke with a yawn in
The first light of dawn
And I saw him and through his disguise
I wish you a hopeful Christmas
I wish you a brave New Year
All anguish pain and sadness
Leave your heart and let your road be clear
They said there'll be snow at Christmas
They said there'll be peace on Earth
Hallelujah Noel be it Heaven or Hell
The Christmas we get we deserve
They said there'll be peace on Earth
But instead it just kept on raining
A veil of tears for the virgin birth
I remember one Christmas morning
A winters light and a distant choir
And the peal of a bell
And that Christmas Tree smell
And eyes full of tinsel and fire
They sold me a dream of Christmas
They sold me a Silent Night
And they told me a fairy story
'Till I believed in the Israelite
And I believed in Father Christmas
And I looked to the sky with excited eyes
'Till I woke with a yawn in
The first light of dawn
And I saw him and through his disguise
I wish you a hopeful Christmas
I wish you a brave New Year
All anguish pain and sadness
Leave your heart and let your road be clear
They said there'll be snow at Christmas
They said there'll be peace on Earth
Hallelujah Noel be it Heaven or Hell
The Christmas we get we deserve

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/
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
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.
WHYever, in this "information"-and-Matthew 24:14-age, would Bono/U2 and billions of people STILL think that there's ANY valid "hallelujah" or "heaven" - or anything of "the Israelite" (Jesus) - [OR EVER WAS] in the so-called "CHRISTmas"????!!!
"Christmas" and "Christmas Eve" (and that winter solstice week) is a time of PAGAN/SPIRITISTIC celebration to "light" and "sun" gods and goddesses - and SATAN - that has been carried forth, globally, from ancient days. FALSE "Christianity" - in total DEFIANCE of biblical commands to NEVER incorporate ANY elements of idolatry or spiritual lies into worship of Jehovah [Yahweh] - infamously DID SO ANYWAY, however. It PAINTED-OVER the God-detested pagan/spiritistic celebrations with a white-wash of FALSE "sanctification" AND THE NAME OF GOD'S SON.
"Christmas Eve" is A MAIN CELEBRATION DAY FOR BOTH WITCHES AND DIRECT SATANISTS.
So, while pseudo-"Christians" (and even professed Buddhists, etc.) are busy doing the common "social thing" of exchanging presents and getting drunk December 22-25 (with perhaps a quick, half-yearly duck-in to a "church"); elsewhere pagans are holding "fire dances", etc. to an IDOLIZED SUN gOD, etc; and Satanists are holding orgies, including bestiality and rape (of even children) and making sacrifices of blood and body parts to their god.
"Father Christmas" is a DEMON.
"New Year's Eve/Day" is also pagan: "Happy Hogmanay" and Yule-tides; and 'better get those "New Year's Resolutions" in line in time for JANus the god of gates, doors, and beginnings/endings.
Congratulations, Bono/U2 on realizing and speaking/singing out that many "Christmas dreams" as well as the common "Christmas Birth-of-Christ"/"Silent Night" story are LIES/"fairy [demon] stories" that have been SOLD to (and EAGERLY BOUGHT-UP by) the masses. (Christ was born IN THE FALL - NOT during the WINTER SOLSTICE week, as convenient to pagans and aquiescing-to-paganism FALSE "Christians.")
HOWEVER, the end-product of THIS SONG is that it is a spiritually "FENCE-straddling" song-profession. Such a kind of song certainly "SELLS" WELL, doesn't it.....
.....but then again, so do a lot of things that are HARMFUL to people.
A very Merry Christmas?
And a Happy New Year?
Let's HOPE YOU CAN SCRAP IT
And MAKE THE WAY CLEAR.
Falsehoods over, if you want it.....
