This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Fuck mainstream, we're out of the commercial scheme,
Your music industry has never interested me.
Indoctrination and standardisation
Bad Ska resistance for only subsistence!
Corporate Media define the tastes of the Masses
Mediocrity gets sold at a very high price
There's no content, but the package is nice
Lobotomized again, they'll even buy things twice!
Passive audiance
A lovely bunch of naive students
Absolute obedience
They keep repeating the artist's statements
Swindle evidence
Greedy promoters and shitty bands
For you empty existence
None of this makes any sense!
Tic Tac Toe, the devil plays the game
Nothing's exciting, everythings boring
the songs he sings are all the same
You can run, you can hide,
but you're always running dry
Keep music outside of this whole business,
Not for sale, not to buy!
Broken bones and broken voice
My heart and my brain are full of rage
D.I.Y. my only choice
To Spread my ideas, my message
All these shits make me ill
and never gave me a thrill
These tunes always get played on the TV
in exchange for a lucrative deal
Music has to remain a way to change the world
It ain't no product, or a TV add support
Majors, you're choking with all the lives you wasted
So many artists that you've never supported
Authenticity is the thing you can't afford
Cause you're only choosing those that follow all the trends
We gonna teach you what's the real underground
And you'll discover the values that we want to defend
There is no chance for originality
They traded art for rent-ability
Gotta pay to play
Your music industry has never interested me.

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.
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

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/
