Fuzzy - Collective Soul

Good morning sunshine
Bring on your pain
Oh sweet Jesus I swear I'll
I'll never taste it again

Not tonight
Not tonight

Oh no Ok so let's go
I can live my life in slow mo
I think I was your boyfriend once though
But I was fuzzy then
Yeah, fuzzy, now

Twinkling starlight
Yeah it's time to write
Why here its not or never
'Cause its my time to shine

Not tonight
Not tonight

Ok no Ok so let's go
I won't live this life in slow mo
I think I was your girlfriend once though
But I was fuzzy then

Oh no Oh no Ok so let's go
We can live our lives in slow mo
I think I was your boyfriend twice though
But I was fuzzy then

I can't shake it
I just can't shake it
I can't shake it
I just can't shake it
Tonight
No, not tonight

I won't shake it
I just can't shake it
I won't shake it
I just can't shake it
Tonight
No, not tonight
Yeah

Not tonight
Not tonight

Oh no Ok so let's go
I won't like this life in slow mo
I think I was your girlfriend twice though
But I was fuzzy then

Oh no Oh no Ok so let's go
We won't live this life in slow mo
You know we're all just pissed here though, yeah
We're all fuzzy again, yeah
We're all fuzzy again
Fuzzy again
Fuzzy my friend
Fuzzy my friends

Yeah!

    Is this song about the Movie Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind? The whole concept of the movie was there was a service that allowed you to wipe your mind of any thoughts of someone you once dated, and the character after trying to erase his memory decides he doesn't want to and tries to stop it from happening as his mind is erased. And at the end it turns out that even though their minds were erased they still have longings for what's missing and know that something is missing.

    The first paragraph seems to reference the Sunshine in the title, and could be interpreted as his call to get his memory wiped as he no longer wants to feel the pain.Not Tonight. But then he keeps having faulty memory as to whether he was his gf's boyfriend previously. The lines "I just can't shake it" could be the feeling that he's been with this person before even though his mind has been wiped. and I was your your gf twice though could be referring to the character who is in love with the doctor who administers the treatment and at the end realizes that she's already dated him and then had her mind wiped and now she's reliving her crush all over again.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Gentle Hour
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
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/
