Calling all the girls
There's an SOS tonight, let's have some fun, yeah
One hundred percent
Every single chase somehow these days are gone, yeah

There's gotta be a million faces up in this room, room
But the only one who gets my attention is you, you

I got my best on and I feel like dancing all night long
Nothing's gonna stop me oh but I want
So baby come and get me, cause I don't wanna dance alone

Oh it's been so long
Thinking 'bout the feeling of your arms wrapped around my body
It's what I want
So baby come and get me, cause I don't wanna dance alone

Out on the floor
I can feel you staring at me across the room, ooh
Whatcha waiting for
All I want is you so come and make a move, oh

I see a million silver lights up in this room, ooh
I wanna be the one who gets the attention from you, oh

I got my best on and I feel like dancing all night long
Nothing's gonna stop me
Oh but I want
So baby come and get me, cause I don't wanna dance alone

Oh it's been so long
Thinking 'bout the feeling of your arms wrapped around my body
It's what I want
So baby come and get me, cause I don't wanna dance alone

If you come in close
Then I won't say no
Baby all I want is you
If you move too slow
Then you'll never know
All the things that we could do

If you come in close
Then I won't say no
Baby all I want is you
If you move too slow
Then you'll never know
All the things that we could do

I got my best on and I feel like dancing all night long
Nothing's gonna stop me
Oh but I want
So baby come and get me, cause I don't wanna dance alone

Oh it's been so long
Thinking 'bout the feeling of your arms wrapped around my body
It's what I want
So baby come and get me, cause I don't wanna dance alone

Don't let me dance alone
I don't wanna dance alone

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

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.

American Town
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.
