Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.
i remember the first time i saw your face
i cracked a smile and my heart raced
i wish that i could stay, i'd sing to you everyday
i wish i didn't have to go
you're the girl of my dreams
some things aren't quite what they seem
i don't know what to do
if i could fall in love with you
i hope i'll see you at our next show
when i get back, i hope you'll still care
i'll walk into the room and see you waiting there
everything will be perfect between you and me
right now i want you around
but you're that girl from out of town
i still love you to this day
but nothing good can ever stay
i can't wait to hear from you again
maybe i'll steal a car someday
then we can drive real far away
we'd leave our cares behind
and cross a bunch of cool state lines
it'd be our dream come true
i'd bring you flowers, we'd dance to fortune's fool
if we could make this work, it would be so cool
i hope that you and i won't ever grow apart
i remember the first time i saw your face
that memory can't be replaced
i wish that i could stay, i'd sing to you everyday
but now i really have to go, go...
i cracked a smile and my heart raced
i wish that i could stay, i'd sing to you everyday
i wish i didn't have to go
you're the girl of my dreams
some things aren't quite what they seem
i don't know what to do
if i could fall in love with you
i hope i'll see you at our next show
when i get back, i hope you'll still care
i'll walk into the room and see you waiting there
everything will be perfect between you and me
right now i want you around
but you're that girl from out of town
i still love you to this day
but nothing good can ever stay
i can't wait to hear from you again
maybe i'll steal a car someday
then we can drive real far away
we'd leave our cares behind
and cross a bunch of cool state lines
it'd be our dream come true
i'd bring you flowers, we'd dance to fortune's fool
if we could make this work, it would be so cool
i hope that you and i won't ever grow apart
i remember the first time i saw your face
that memory can't be replaced
i wish that i could stay, i'd sing to you everyday
but now i really have to go, go...

The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

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/
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
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.
this is my favourite song off of 'almost there'. brenden you're the cutest thing ever.
