In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Hm
If you think you got your man, in the palm of your hand
You better listen hm
And if you think you got it made and his love will never fade
You better listen
Oh she's out there too
And she's a whole lot better lookin' than me and you
And she can do things to a man, you never dreamed a woman could do
If you think you'll keep your man with a golden wedding band
You better listen hm
And if your sittin' there at home thinkin' how good you turn him on
You better listen
She's sweet when she talks
And she bounces all over when she walks
And she's forgot more about a man than your sweet mama ever told you
I'm talkin' to you Woman to Woman
Heart to heart
I'm singin' straight to you
Hm
Just woman to woman
Right from my heart
And you can take it or leave it
Ah but it's true
Woman to woman
Me to you
Just woman to woman
Right from my heart
And you can take it or leave it
Ah but it's true
Woman to woman
Me to you
If you think you got your man, in the palm of your hand
You better listen hm
And if you think you got it made and his love will never fade
You better listen
Oh she's out there too
And she's a whole lot better lookin' than me and you
And she can do things to a man, you never dreamed a woman could do
If you think you'll keep your man with a golden wedding band
You better listen hm
And if your sittin' there at home thinkin' how good you turn him on
You better listen
She's sweet when she talks
And she bounces all over when she walks
And she's forgot more about a man than your sweet mama ever told you
I'm talkin' to you Woman to Woman
Heart to heart
I'm singin' straight to you
Hm
Just woman to woman
Right from my heart
And you can take it or leave it
Ah but it's true
Woman to woman
Me to you
Just woman to woman
Right from my heart
And you can take it or leave it
Ah but it's true
Woman to woman
Me to you

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
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/

Ed Sheeran
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.
