In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Je n'suis pas une chanteuse de salle de bain
Je fais de la kitchen miousic
Kitchen kitchen kitchen miousic
Kitchen kitchen miousic
Kitchen kitchen kitchen miousic
Kitchen kitchen miousic
On casse des oeufs sur l'dos des filles
On va pleurer quand elles s'en vont
On croit qu'l'amour c'est l'plus terrible
On s'dit punaise c'est pas marrant
Mais aujourd'hui tu vois c'est bien pire
Si ce soir tu t'en vas
Ecoute ce p'tit air de tambouille ça dérouille
Les cass'roles fument quand c'est chaud
Les caff'tières sifflent quand ça bouille
Les fourchettes servent de couteaux
Dans les marmites des tonnes de nouilles
Dehors les moustiques volent
Pourquoi pas nous
Et ce soir tu décolles
Alors je bois un coup d'soda
J't'oublierai pas
Kitchen kitchen kitchen miousic
Kitchen kitchen miousic
Kitchen kitchen kitchen miousic
Kitchen kitchen miousic
Les bulles de coca pétillent
Les oignons deviennent frivoles
Des fois j'me dis : pauv' camille
Tu finiras dans tes casserolles
Et bien tant pis pour moi si j'dérouille
Au moins j'finirai pas
Sous les hachoirs de la justice
Rest'ront bredouille
Kitchen kitchen kitchen miousic
Kitchen kitchen miousic
Kitchen kitchen kitchen miousic
Kitchen kitchen miousic
Le thym et le romarin
Le curry l'cumin l'origan
Dans l'écume de mon bouillon
M'éclaboussent y'a trop de fusion
Et ce soir tu t'en vas
J'en bafouille
Regarde autour de toi
Ma cuisine joue son vieil air de tambouille
Avec moi dans les oeufs et dans la farine
Kitchen kitchen kitchen miousic
Kitchen kitchen miousic
Kitchen kitchen kitchen miousic
Kitchen kitchen miousic
Je fais de la kitchen miousic
Kitchen kitchen kitchen miousic
Kitchen kitchen miousic
Kitchen kitchen kitchen miousic
Kitchen kitchen miousic

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/
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
