Born Entertainer

Veruca Salt

This couldn't get any better
She didn't get it so fuck her
I'll never be any saner
I'm a born entertainer

Yeah

You couldn't be any cuter
You couldn't be any cooler
You'll never be any saner
'Cause you're a born entertainer

Yeah

I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I dare you to ditch me
I beg you to miss me

(So rock)
You couldn't get any rad-er
(So rad)
You couldn't be any bad-er
(So sad)
You couldn't be any meaner
(Gotta ditch me)
You're a born entertainer
(Gotta ditch me)

We're the born entertainers
We're the born entertainers
The born entertainers

    I think its just about a girl who doesn't think being herself is enough, she feels like she has to act out and be loud and funny and entertaining to be accepted and wanted and shit. I can relate to this song. A lot.

    I could be wrong, but it sounds pretty obvious to me that she is pissed at Nina for leaving they band and its not going to stop her. And she wants Nina to feel bad about it.

    "She didn't get it so fuck her" Nina didn't get it that this band meant a lot to Louise.

    I want you to want me I need you to need me I dare you to ditch me I beg you to miss me

    She also really misses Nina and wants her back besides the bad blood between them.

    Just my take on it ;)

    From that one line "she didn't get it so fuck her" I sort of figured it was about Nina. :/

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Just A Little Lovin'
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
“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.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
