This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Oh my sweet give me one last chance
to show my love for you
just one last time
To fall asleep in your arms
we had come so far together
now we don't even speak to each other
my words aren't strong enough
to express my heart so I'm only left with
memories in my mind
these days seem so long without you
now the sun doesn't shine as bright
as it did when we were alone together
Do you remember the nights we spent together
just staring into the starry night
the pain hurts me like an open wound
please just tell me that you still love me
I know I made mistakes
and I am truly sorry
but I never thought
that you'd say good-bye
I want to tell you
these days seem so long without you
now the sun doesn't shine as bright
as it did when we were alone together
and I'll move on
my heart's broken
for my first love
I know deep inside my heart
there are words and those words are yours
I know deep inside my heart
there are words and those words are yours
to show my love for you
just one last time
To fall asleep in your arms
we had come so far together
now we don't even speak to each other
my words aren't strong enough
to express my heart so I'm only left with
memories in my mind
these days seem so long without you
now the sun doesn't shine as bright
as it did when we were alone together
Do you remember the nights we spent together
just staring into the starry night
the pain hurts me like an open wound
please just tell me that you still love me
I know I made mistakes
and I am truly sorry
but I never thought
that you'd say good-bye
I want to tell you
these days seem so long without you
now the sun doesn't shine as bright
as it did when we were alone together
and I'll move on
my heart's broken
for my first love
I know deep inside my heart
there are words and those words are yours
I know deep inside my heart
there are words and those words are yours

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/

I wish i could have you back... nods... word. Student Rick is so.. trying to think of the word.. blunt, I guess, with their lyrics... it's honest... good song..
I love this song, and it's so true ... it explains the hurt that you feel when someone you're in love with breaks up with you and tells you its over and they dont feel the same way anymore ... I love SR's lyrics with a passion ... they are good good music ...
wow such a wonderful sad song....i love student rick!! just saw them for free at my local cd store and met them! they kickass! they are so wonderful
wow such a wonderful sad song....i love student rick!! just saw them for free at my local cd store and met them! they kickass! they are so wonderful
i love the lyrics but i dont really like the guys voice, the melody of the song, or anything else musically. just last night the boy who just left me to go back to his ex-girlfriend came over and we sat in his parked car in the dark because he insisted this was "our song." i began to cry, trying not to let him know i was, but he knew, and we held each other while this song played.
what the hell is wrong with you...this is a great song and student rick owns
this song is great, my favorite one on the cd...
i swear i could i have wrote this song about my ex. guys eff-i suck. -aodx
this is my favorite song by student rick yet i'm confused as to what it means... please just tell me that you still love me i know i made mistakes and i am truly sorry but i never thought that you’d say good-bye at one point it seems to me like he broke up with her and regrets doing so, then it seems that she broke his heart because she was the one who said goodbye... does anyone else feel the same way? but it doesnt really matter cause i like the song nonetheless.. and they were really good live when i saw them over the summer. :)
