Take Me To The Pilot

Elton John

If you feel that it's real I'm on trial
And I'm here in your prison
Like a coin in your mint
I am dented and I'm spent with high treason

Through a glass eye your throne
Is the one danger zone
Take me to the pilot for control
Take me to the pilot of your soul

Take me to the pilot
Lead me through the chamber
Take me to the pilot
I am but a stranger

Take me to the pilot
Lead me through the chamber
Take me to the pilot
I am but a stranger

Na na na, na na na
Na na na na na na na na
Na na na, na na na
Na na na na na na na na

Well I know he's not old
And I'm told, and I'm told he's a virgin
For he may be she
What I'm told and I'm never, never for certain

Through a glass eye your throne
Is the one danger zone
Take me to the pilot for control
Take me to the pilot of your soul

Take me to the pilot
Lead me through the chamber
Take me to the pilot
I am but a stranger

Take me to the pilot
Lead me through the chamber
Take me to the pilot
I am but a stranger

Na na na, na na na
Na na na na na na na na
Na na na, na na na
Na na na na na na na na

Through a glass eye your throne
Is the one danger zone
Take me to the pilot for control
Take me to the pilot of your soul

Take me to the pilot
Lead me through the chamber
Take me to the pilot
I am but a stranger

Take me to the pilot
Lead me through the chamber
Take me to the pilot
I am but a stranger

Na na na, na na na
Na na na na na na na na
Na na na, na na na
Na na na na na na na na
(Na na na, na na na)
(Na na na na na na na na)
(Na na na) take me, (na na na) take me
(Na na na na na na na na) ooh, oh
(Na na na) take me, (na na na) take me
(Na na na na na na na na) yeah, yeah
(Na na na) take me, (na na na) take me
(Na na na na na na na na)
(Na na na, na na na)
(Na na na na na na na na)

    I wish I had some clue what this song means. There seems to be a few references to pontius pilot, but it's hardly enough to base an actual interpretation on.

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/

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
