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.
In the back of this Nissan
You make me so hot
I love you on fire
That's just what this song's about
Hair pressed against the skin
My fingers on your blouse
I'll keep you in my mouth
And hope to never take you out
This means more than love in a flashing room
And those clothes your fashion it dies too soon
So lose those the floor is where they should be
I tear down your walls and you set me free
Nothing can take me from her
She keeps me on the ground
Nothing can take me from her
She never would leave me down
In the back of this Vegas lot
You make my heart stop
I love your clothes off
But that's not what this song's about
Legs over the stick shift
You let the cloth rip
Your fingers on my kiss
Got me wrapped around your wrists
This means more than love in a five star suite
And much more than kissing on easy street
And rooftops in cities that never sleep
They all search for something like you and me
Nothing can take me from her
She keeps me on the ground
Nothing can take me from her
She never would leave me down
You don't even believe me
Would it hurt to try
I'd say you could complete me
But there's no you in I
Will I be here next year hold that next tear in your eye
You know that I come every time you cry
In the back of this LA cab
You drive me so mad
Hold you 'til my hands bled
That's the red I wish I had
So much between us now
Oceans but I'd swim out
I'll keep you in my mouth
And hope to never take you out
This means more than love on a silver screen
And much more than love in a magazine
And sweat beads you give me all I need
And this room it flashes for you and me
Nothing can take me from her
She keeps me on the ground
Nothing can take me from her
She never would leave me down
Nothing can take me from her
I'm taking her on the ground
Nothing can take me from her
She never would leave me down
You make me so hot
I love you on fire
That's just what this song's about
Hair pressed against the skin
My fingers on your blouse
I'll keep you in my mouth
And hope to never take you out
This means more than love in a flashing room
And those clothes your fashion it dies too soon
So lose those the floor is where they should be
I tear down your walls and you set me free
Nothing can take me from her
She keeps me on the ground
Nothing can take me from her
She never would leave me down
In the back of this Vegas lot
You make my heart stop
I love your clothes off
But that's not what this song's about
Legs over the stick shift
You let the cloth rip
Your fingers on my kiss
Got me wrapped around your wrists
This means more than love in a five star suite
And much more than kissing on easy street
And rooftops in cities that never sleep
They all search for something like you and me
Nothing can take me from her
She keeps me on the ground
Nothing can take me from her
She never would leave me down
You don't even believe me
Would it hurt to try
I'd say you could complete me
But there's no you in I
Will I be here next year hold that next tear in your eye
You know that I come every time you cry
In the back of this LA cab
You drive me so mad
Hold you 'til my hands bled
That's the red I wish I had
So much between us now
Oceans but I'd swim out
I'll keep you in my mouth
And hope to never take you out
This means more than love on a silver screen
And much more than love in a magazine
And sweat beads you give me all I need
And this room it flashes for you and me
Nothing can take me from her
She keeps me on the ground
Nothing can take me from her
She never would leave me down
Nothing can take me from her
I'm taking her on the ground
Nothing can take me from her
She never would leave 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,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Blue

Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
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.
This song is beautiful. It's about an absolutely true love, one that mean more than a fake silver screen romance, or a cheap hook-up.
If a boy ever told me this song described our relationship, I'd fall in love with him right there and then, if I wasn't already in love with him.
