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.
Let the day begin
Let the horror start
Let the fury swell
Let the skies all cry
Let the day begin
Let the fun begin
Let the worlds collide
Let the day begin
Let humanity spin
Let the day begin
Inherent time is at hand
So then let the day begin
Nomadic waltz into light
So then let the day begin
Let the world stand bare
Let it stand on trial
Let it open up
Let the tides explode
Let the day begin
Let the Jews all scream
Let the Catholics burn
Let the Protestants hide
Let the false ones wallow in their own demise
Let the fun begin
Let the worlds collide
Let the day begin
Let humanity spin
Let the day begin
Inherent time is at hand
So then let the day begin
Nomadic waltz on into light
So then let the day begin
Inherent time is at hand
So then let the day begin
Nomadic waltz on into light
So then let the day begin
Inherent time is at hand
So then let the day begin
Nomadic waltz into light
So then let the day begin
And the earth stands stripped
And its imminent rape
Let them get their due
Let them feel the pain
That they gave to you
Let the day begin
Let the horror start
Let the fury swell
Let the skies all cry
Let the day begin
Inherent time is at hand
So then let the day begin
Nomadic waltz into light
So then let the day begin
Inherent time is at hand
So then let the day begin
Nomadic waltz into light
So then let the day begin
Let the horror start
Let the fury swell
Let the skies all cry
Let the day begin
Let the fun begin
Let the worlds collide
Let the day begin
Let humanity spin
Let the day begin
Inherent time is at hand
So then let the day begin
Nomadic waltz into light
So then let the day begin
Let the world stand bare
Let it stand on trial
Let it open up
Let the tides explode
Let the day begin
Let the Jews all scream
Let the Catholics burn
Let the Protestants hide
Let the false ones wallow in their own demise
Let the fun begin
Let the worlds collide
Let the day begin
Let humanity spin
Let the day begin
Inherent time is at hand
So then let the day begin
Nomadic waltz on into light
So then let the day begin
Inherent time is at hand
So then let the day begin
Nomadic waltz on into light
So then let the day begin
Inherent time is at hand
So then let the day begin
Nomadic waltz into light
So then let the day begin
And the earth stands stripped
And its imminent rape
Let them get their due
Let them feel the pain
That they gave to you
Let the day begin
Let the horror start
Let the fury swell
Let the skies all cry
Let the day begin
Inherent time is at hand
So then let the day begin
Nomadic waltz into light
So then let the day begin
Inherent time is at hand
So then let the day begin
Nomadic waltz into light
So then let the day begin

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/
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
