This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Rest your head and close your eyes
When the dream starts your problems fly
Like a never ending floating stream
You await the exciting dream
To a world of wishes and horrors
Where laughter can turn to sorrows
When the light of the night
Can be so warm and bright
It might be drenched in red
When you wake you wish you were dead
Strangled in a solid iron chain
A harvest of a burning pain
Some of us will slowly awake
Some will the grim reaper take
A kingdom where we'll travel to lay
But a few will eternally stay
Drowning in my own dreams
Beyond the wall of realms
In this alley of shadows
Where it ends no one knows
A place where everything is in unison
You know wisdom better than none
A blue sky and the magic sunlight
Can turn to suffering and everlasting night
Sail with those silent winds
Towards where no one loses, no one wins
A stream of light in my veins
A vision for hell but so in pain
A room full of strangers but I'm alone
Second by second, life's alone
Some of us will slowly awake
Some will the grim reaper take
A kingdom where we'll travel to lay
But a few will eternally stay
When the dream starts your problems fly
Like a never ending floating stream
You await the exciting dream
To a world of wishes and horrors
Where laughter can turn to sorrows
When the light of the night
Can be so warm and bright
It might be drenched in red
When you wake you wish you were dead
Strangled in a solid iron chain
A harvest of a burning pain
Some of us will slowly awake
Some will the grim reaper take
A kingdom where we'll travel to lay
But a few will eternally stay
Drowning in my own dreams
Beyond the wall of realms
In this alley of shadows
Where it ends no one knows
A place where everything is in unison
You know wisdom better than none
A blue sky and the magic sunlight
Can turn to suffering and everlasting night
Sail with those silent winds
Towards where no one loses, no one wins
A stream of light in my veins
A vision for hell but so in pain
A room full of strangers but I'm alone
Second by second, life's alone
Some of us will slowly awake
Some will the grim reaper take
A kingdom where we'll travel to lay
But a few will eternally stay

Holiday

@[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.
Gentle Hour

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/
