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.
Here, sitting in my room
With The Replacements and Husker Du
Like a rebel without a clue
And The Beatles and The Stones
Get to hang out with Ramones
And The Pistols shunning fame
As they sing the old refrain
As they always will again
Like 29 x the pain
I see Starz
And the moon is big and black
There's a full Sheer Heart Attack
but the Cheapest Trick of all
Is when I hear that London Call
I need something and I need it fast
I need Jason scorching past
I need to feel they feel the same
Coz when they almost know my name
It's like 29 x the pain
x the pain
29 x the pain
x the pain
29 x the pain
x the pain
x the pain
but it all adds up the same
(thanks pink/Frankie)
Kiss my Heart
Like The Damned did from the start
C'mon make me feel like me
S.L.F or B.O.C
Gimme old
Gimme new
Let me know you feel it too
Coz for all you boys and girls
It's a brave new world
I'm up
How can I get down
When I got all my friends around
and I can be there once again
I'm gonna miss Kurt Cobain
Like 29 x the pain
x the pain
29 x the pain
x the pain
29 the pain
x the pain
x the pain
x the pain
x the pain
It makes it all worthwhile again

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
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/

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
Is Frankie mr Frankie Warsaw Stubbs ? Ginger has often voiced his admiration for Leatherface, and they have the North East connection as well . . .
They alter that last line all the time live. I've seen it replaced with Joe Strummer, Dimebag Darryl, the aforementioned Richie James and others I can't remember anymore.
