This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
"I'm sure to find true love under angel wings,â??
Assured and locked so tight I know she's whispering.
Alone and savoring life alone tonight
She's coming out to greet a world so wont of light.
Her first time exposed to the games and bitter ends.
Her last time to feel clean, in broken English she says,
â??I lost everything to one boy who says he was mine,
He said he'd hold me forever.â??
Now she's sitting on my floor,
Pulling out her hair to ease
That she's not sleeping again.
This cotton down it feels so much more like home.
The memories creep in as she closes both her eyes.
She's walking out into the night for the first time,
Completely unprepared for the thousandth time.
â??I lost everything to one boy who says he was mine,
He said he'd hold me forever.â??
Now she's sitting on my floor,
Pulling out her hair to ease
That she's not sleeping again.
The first time that I saw those eyes
Was the first time that I came undone,
Oh Mary look what you've done to me.
Oh Mary look what you've done.
The first time that I saw those eyes
Was the first time I came undone,
Oh Mary look what you've done to me.
Oh Mary look what you've done.
She says, â??I lost everything to one boy who says he was mine,
He said he'd hold me forever.â??
She's sitting on my floor,
Pulling out her hair to ease
That she's not sleeping again.
I can't forget this night; another left, another right.
How did I ever get away, the door was locked the key unmade.
Out for the last time life ends here,
There is no next time gas is full; a vehicle that ends all fear.
Assured and locked so tight I know she's whispering.
Alone and savoring life alone tonight
She's coming out to greet a world so wont of light.
Her first time exposed to the games and bitter ends.
Her last time to feel clean, in broken English she says,
â??I lost everything to one boy who says he was mine,

Now she's sitting on my floor,
Pulling out her hair to ease

Oh Mary look what you've done.

Oh Mary look what you've done to me.
Oh Mary look what you've done.

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
No Surprises

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
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/
Magical
Ed Sheeran

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
i like the version on sincerly better. but joel rocks on both! this song is about a boy who has to be the friend to the girl he loves. while she gets her heart broken, all he can do is help to pick up the pieces.<3
This song is beautiful ... only I have this weird acoustic version where the singer's voice is all screwed up. Maybe it's the version on Sincerely? But anyway. Yeah, it's about a boy wanting a girl who's too broken hearted to even notice. Mmm, redundancy
I like the version on Sincerely better as well. But this song... wow. It's sad, but when he sings it, it's just amazing.
Amazing? Yes. This is the first Working Title song I heard and I just fell in love with them after that. This song is so beautiful and sad.
It's about the typical situation.
Boy loves best friend, she doesn't open her eyes to him in that way. He just sits backs and watch her date the wrong guy, and when that wrong guy breaks her heart, he is there to get her through the night and heart ache.
In broken English she says “I lost everything to one boy who said he was mine, he said he’d hold me forever.”
I can relate to that :/
I heard the song's author and lead singer, Joel Hamilton, explaining what this song is about. He wrote it at the age of 17 on the floor in his room. It is a made up story about a girl. I believe he mentioned what most of you are saying about a guy that was in love with his good friend, etc., but what I know he said is that the song is about the girl committing suicide, which is what happens at the end of the song. She crashes her car.
Mhmm..
The last couple of lines. She takes her own life.
Does anyone know where I can download this song? They only have one version on frostwire and I don't really like that version.
