This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Wait, I think it's time
Your fire's lit and so is mine
Go turn out the light
Don't be afraid, tonight's the night
And I won't, I won't try to change you
But I will, I will if I want to
Yeah, it always brings me down
When you're not around
I still need you
Oh, You do something for me baby
I cannot control it, baby
You do something for me
Oh, You do something crazy to me
I cannot control it, baby
You do something for me
And I feel so down
When you're not around
Boy, we're almost there
I'll lay your clothes over my chair
Pull the shades down low
We're both ready so lose control
And I won't, I won't try to tame you
But I will, I will if you want to
Yeah it always brings me down
When you're not around
I still need you
Oh, You do something for me baby
I cannot control it, baby
You do something for me
Oh, You do something crazy to me
I cannot control it, baby
You do something for me
And I feel so down
When you're not around
And I won't, I won't try to tame you
But I will, I will if you want to
Yeah it always brings me down
When you're not around
I still need you
Oh, You do something for me baby
I cannot control it lately
You do something for me
Oh, You do something for me baby
I cannot control it lately
You do something for me
Oh, You do something crazy to me
I cannot control it, baby
La la la la la la la la
You always bring me down
Your fire's lit and so is mine
Go turn out the light
Don't be afraid, tonight's the night
And I won't, I won't try to change you
But I will, I will if I want to
Yeah, it always brings me down
When you're not around
I still need you
Oh, You do something for me baby
I cannot control it, baby
You do something for me
Oh, You do something crazy to me
I cannot control it, baby
You do something for me
And I feel so down
When you're not around
Boy, we're almost there
I'll lay your clothes over my chair
Pull the shades down low
We're both ready so lose control
And I won't, I won't try to tame you
But I will, I will if you want to
Yeah it always brings me down
When you're not around
I still need you
Oh, You do something for me baby
I cannot control it, baby
You do something for me
Oh, You do something crazy to me
I cannot control it, baby
You do something for me
And I feel so down
When you're not around
And I won't, I won't try to tame you
But I will, I will if you want to
Yeah it always brings me down
When you're not around
I still need you
Oh, You do something for me baby
I cannot control it lately
You do something for me
Oh, You do something for me baby
I cannot control it lately
You do something for me
Oh, You do something crazy to me
I cannot control it, baby
La la la la la la la la
You always bring me down

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
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
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/

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.
And also before she decided to move into pop instead of rock. She does sound crazy different, still a cool song, though.
