Nothing unusual
Nothing strange
Close to nothing at all
The same old scenario
The same old rain
And there's no explosions here

Then something unusual
Something strange
Comes from nothing at all
I saw a spaceship
Fly by your window
Did you see it disappear?

Amie, come sit on my wall
And read me the story of O
And tell it like you still believe
That the end of the century
Brings a change for you and me

Nothing unusual
Nothing's changed
Just a little older that's all
But you know when you've found it
There's something I've learned
'Cause you feel it when they take it away

Hey, hey, hey
Something unusual
Something strange
Comes from nothing at all
But I'm not a miracle
And you're not a saint
Just another soldier
On the road to nowhere

Amie, come sit on my wall
And read me the story of O
And tell it like you still believe
That the end of the century
Brings a change for you and me
And Amie, come sit on my wall
And read me the story of O
And tell it like you still believe
That the end of the century
Brings a change for you and me

    It makes me want my lovely right here with me right now. The entire album does. I love him more than I have anyone else before. Every minute I'm not with him I yearn for the minute when I'll be with him again and then when I see him it's like "ahh yesss. All is right again".

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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/
