This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
I hung myself out on the line
Beneath an Argentina sky
And I expected there to dry
Beneath the Argentina sky
Upon the rooftop here so high
Beneath the Argentina sky
The storm did call me to its side
Beneath the Argentina sky
And the dogs of Buenos Aires they will take you from your sleep
Between the firecrackers cackling and the taxis in the street
And if you wake up lonely better throw some shoes upon those feet
To keep the heartbreak from taking your life
Once I had planned to be your bride
Before this Argentina sky
Now I just tend my wounded pride
Under this Argentina sky
Now I want the rain to fall into my eyes
From this Argentina sky
The thunder to match my anguished cries
Beneath this Argentina sky
I looked into the darkening and while the air did chill
I knew that though I'm here in exile that you should love me still
And when the rain began to pound I lifted up my face until
I was soaked with the ache of the sky
Ella hacía el lavado de una terraza,
Mientras el sol le quemaba la espalda,
Ella intentaba fregar el sudor de su desconsuelo,
Escurrir las lágrimas,
Pero antes que la tarea estuviera terminada,
La ropa todavía doliente en la soga,
Bajó desde el delta un viento poderoso
Why las nubes se cargaron a lo largo del cielo
¡Rápido, adentro, cerrad las ventanas, viene una tormenta!
Sacá tu ropa de la soga.
So many tears could make me blind
Beneath this Argentina sky
But still my love for you I can't deny
Even under Argentina's skies
I'll seek until a path to you I find
Under these Argentina skies
When will you take me back inside
From under Argentina's skies
I looked into the darkening and while the air did chill
I knew that though I'm here in exile that you should love me still
And when the rain began to pound I lifted up my face until
I was soaked with the ache of the sky
When will you take me back inside
From under these Argentine skies?
Beneath an Argentina sky
And I expected there to dry
Beneath the Argentina sky
Upon the rooftop here so high
Beneath the Argentina sky
The storm did call me to its side
Beneath the Argentina sky
And the dogs of Buenos Aires they will take you from your sleep
Between the firecrackers cackling and the taxis in the street
And if you wake up lonely better throw some shoes upon those feet
To keep the heartbreak from taking your life
Once I had planned to be your bride
Before this Argentina sky
Now I just tend my wounded pride
Under this Argentina sky
Now I want the rain to fall into my eyes
From this Argentina sky
The thunder to match my anguished cries
Beneath this Argentina sky
I looked into the darkening and while the air did chill
I knew that though I'm here in exile that you should love me still
And when the rain began to pound I lifted up my face until
I was soaked with the ache of the sky
Ella hacía el lavado de una terraza,
Mientras el sol le quemaba la espalda,
Ella intentaba fregar el sudor de su desconsuelo,
Escurrir las lágrimas,
Pero antes que la tarea estuviera terminada,
La ropa todavía doliente en la soga,
Bajó desde el delta un viento poderoso
Why las nubes se cargaron a lo largo del cielo
¡Rápido, adentro, cerrad las ventanas, viene una tormenta!
Sacá tu ropa de la soga.
So many tears could make me blind

But still my love for you I can't deny

I'll seek until a path to you I find

From under Argentina's skies
I looked into the darkening and while the air did chill
I knew that though I'm here in exile that you should love me still
And when the rain began to pound I lifted up my face until
I was soaked with the ache of the sky
When will you take me back inside
From under these Argentine skies?

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
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.
The song is pure beauty. It is absolutely sad, but still beautiful. I don't know what it can be about.. But there might a correlation to Pablo Neruda as cupcake5 said.. I have no clue though. Anyone??
