All About You

The Bangles

You were so amused when I made myself available
You had to ask if it was all intentional.

Well, something's goin' on (on and on)
Something's goin' on (goin' on and on)
I am finding out all about you.

The sun is hiding and the car is running badly
I-I know only one way a friend should kiss a friend goodbye.

But, something's goin' on (on and on)
Something's goin' on (goin' on and on)
I am finding out all about you.

I'm taking it all too hard I have nothing left to fight you with
All your pretty things are merely to create the myth.

That something's goin' on (on and on)
Something's goin' on (goin' on and on)
I am finding out all about you.

Yeah, something's goin' on (on and on)
Something's goin' on (going on and on and)
I am finding out all about you.
Yeah, I am finding out all about you.

    The singer here is telling her lover that putting up a false front isn't going to work. Love never last when a lie is involved.

More Featured Meanings

Another Love
Tom Odell
I think the meaning is pretty clear. This person got really burned in a previous relationship, and because of this is unable to love and show care in his present one, even though he so badly wants to. It's lovely song, and very sad. You can really feel how defeated and frustrated he is with himself.

Zombie
Cranberries, The
"Zombie" is about the ethno-political conflict in Ireland. This is obvious if you know anything of the singer (Dolores O'Riordan)'s Irish heritage and understood the "1916" Easter Rising reference. "Another head hangs lowly Child is slowly taken And the violence caused such silence Who are we mistaken - Another mother's breaking Heart is taking over" Laments the Warrington bomb attacks in which two children were fatally injured on March 23rd, 1993. Twelve year old Tim Parry was taken off life support with permission from his mother after five days in the hospital, virtually braindead. "But you see it's not me It's not my family" References how people who are not directly involved with the violence feel about it. They are "zombies" without sympathy who refuse to take action while others suffer.

Sunglasses at Night
Corey Hart
In the 1980s, sunglasses were a common fashion for people who wanted to adopt a "tough guy" persona (note all the cop shows from that era -- Simon & Simon, Miami Vice, etc. -- where the lead characters wore shades). So I think this song is about a guy who wears shades as a way of hiding his insecurity after learning that his girlfriend is cheating on him. He's trying to pretend that he's a "tough guy" to hide the fact that his girlfriend's affair is disturbing him.
