Have no use for sweets of any kind
Since the day you came around
From the start I instantly made up my mind
Sweeter sweetness can't be found
You're so sweet, can't be beat
Nothing sweeter ever stood on feet

Every honeybee fills with jealousy
When they see you out with me
I don't blame them goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose
When you're passing by
Flowers droop and sigh
And I know the reason why
You're much sweeter, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose

Don't buy sugar
You just have to touch my cup
You're my sugar
It's sweet when you stir it up

When I'm taking sips from your tasty lips
Seems the honey fairly drips
You're confection, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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,

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
