    I realize this track as a whole does not have a lot of meaning, but it's kind of entertaining. In addition I think it's a nice break in the Ixnay On The Hombre record, with dark songs about drug use, brainwashing and losing loved ones preceeding it. It's almost like, "Here's the harsh realities of life, you look like you need some cheering up." which makes it kind of funny. Plus, it's just such a simple, musically non-profound song right before Dexter's scream to begin the song "All I Want".

    The background music is actually from a really old love song.

    This song is obviously inspired by Star Wars. It clearly describes the feeling of being at a drive-in double feature of The Empire Strikes Back' and 'Return of the Jedi'.

    "Intermission" has no meaning, aside from the intent to amuse and disturb. Amuse, because the old Lawrence Welk-style Muzak is a sharp contrast from the bombastic punk of the rest of the album, and disturb because WHAT in the nine circles of HELL is that guy groaning like that for?

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
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,

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

Amazing
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.
