This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
So you say you've never been in love?
That you don't even know what that means.
You thought you did but now that it's over you think,
Can't even be half of the real thing
And as time goes on and on I can feel my heart growing colder and colder
But then I see your face in the crowd, I think
How could I be starting over?
Cause when you meet someone new
It all just takes over you
And you think that you never really tried
Open your heart
Open your mind.
Girl, you're gunna take me back to a time when I loved and I meant it
Girl, you're gunna save me,
Give me a chance, it's worth taking
Girl, you're gunna take me back to a time when I loved and I meant it
Girl, you're gunna save me,
Gimme a chance, it's worth taking, oh
And we always say the same old things,
And we always use the same tired lines
Stayin up all night, talkin it out
Endin up with noone on our side
And as time goes on and on, I can feel my heart growing colder and colder,
But then I see your face in the crowd, I think
How could I be starting over?
Cause when you meet someone new
It all just takes over you
And you think that you never really tried.
Open your heart,
Open your mind.
Girl, you're gunna take me back to a time when I loved and I meant it
Girl, you're gunna save me,
Give me a chance, it's worth taking
Girl, you're gunna take me back to a time when I loved and I meant
Girl, you're gunna save me,
Gimme a chance, it's worth taking, oh
Cause when you meet someone new
It all just takes over you
And you think that you never really tried,
And you think that you never really tried,
And you think that you never really tried!
Open your heart,
Open your mind.
Girl, you're gunna take me back to a time when I loved and I meant it
Girl, you're gunna save me,
Give me a chance, it's worth taking
Girl, you're gunna take me back to a time when I loved and I meant(when I loved and I
Girl, you're gunna save me,
Gimme a chance, it's worth taking, oh
That you don't even know what that means.
You thought you did but now that it's over you think,
Can't even be half of the real thing
And as time goes on and on I can feel my heart growing colder and colder
But then I see your face in the crowd, I think
How could I be starting over?
Cause when you meet someone new
It all just takes over you
And you think that you never really tried
Open your heart
Open your mind.
Girl, you're gunna take me back to a time when I loved and I meant it
Girl, you're gunna save me,
Give me a chance, it's worth taking

Girl, you're gunna save me,
Gimme a chance, it's worth taking, oh

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,
No Surprises

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.

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
