This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
if you called, and i didn't answer,
there's a chance i'll get back to you
but if you're bald, fat, and go where my pants were,
then you know i'm breeding for two
january twenty something, let 'em line up and slide away
someone dialed up my line today
this song was a fever-dream,
first new year's greeting on my answering machine,
a suicide note from my late-teens,
put to this melody
and now my bike tire's flat,
i must have ran over some glass, in the dark
or it mighta got slashed,
'cause i was messing around with someone's, ex-girlfriend, again
january twenty something
let 'em line up and slide away
there's a chance i'll get back to you
but if you're bald, fat, and go where my pants were,
then you know i'm breeding for two
january twenty something, let 'em line up and slide away
someone dialed up my line today
this song was a fever-dream,
first new year's greeting on my answering machine,
a suicide note from my late-teens,
put to this melody
and now my bike tire's flat,
i must have ran over some glass, in the dark
or it mighta got slashed,
'cause i was messing around with someone's, ex-girlfriend, again
january twenty something
let 'em line up and slide away

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'

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
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
The verse about the bike tire is a reference to "A Little Titanic" from Oaklandazulasylum. I love how many references to older material are on Eskimo Snow.
what this song is off of?
it's on their upcoming album eskimo snow, which should be released in september
Didn't Yoni say the opening used to be his answering machine?
yeah he did
Where did he say that? I wanna read it XD
youtube.com/watch he explains it briefly in the beginning.
I believe the part that was his answering machine ends at "someone dialed up my line today". the rest seems to kind of evaluate the current state of his life in comparison to when he wrote it.
This one's my favorite off the new album. The harmonies are so damn perfect.
Even though it's just a generic answering machine / voice mail greeting, I always thought the first couple lines were lifted/re-imagined from the Silver Jews song 'Advice to the Graduate'.
