Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Haha, yeah
What up, ma?
How you been?
Yeah I know, I know, haha
It's all good
Girl, your stare, those eyes, I (love it when you look at me, baby)
Your lips, your smile, I (love it when you kiss me, baby)
Your hips, those thighs, I (love it when you fuck me, baby)
And I can't, deny I (love it when I'm wit'chu, baby)
I, got a fetish for fuckin' you wit'cha skirt on
On the backstreet in the back seat of the Yukon
What's takin' so long? I'm gettin' anxious
But patiently waitin' for you to tell a nigga to move on
Between me and you, we can find each other
Flyin' abroad in my private G-2
I ain't tryin' to G you, ma I'm tryin' to see you
Bend over, you know how we do it, feet to shoulders
Bring heat to coldest night, so ferocious
Now you street promotin' the dick game is potent
'Cause in the bed a nigga go hard like Jordan
Sweat pourin', lovin' the way you be moanin'
Grippin' the sheets, lookin' at me, lickin' at me
'Cause every woman just wanna be happy
And it's crazy, but baby, I (love it when I'm wit'chu, baby)
Girl, your stare, those eyes, I (love it when you look at me, baby)
Your lips, your smile, I (love it when you kiss me, baby)
Your hips, those thighs, I (love it when you fuck me, baby)
And I can't, deny I (love it when I'm wit'chu, baby)
I wanna get away, (get away) 'cause you know like I know
And there's a better day (better day), a-comin', I'm hooked on your lovin'
Believe me (believe me), and when you hold my body
I know you need me (need me), wait for me, baby
I've been goin' half-crazy for your love
And I was told that the sex, better than drugs
Then get addicted (addicted), boy, listen (listen)
I'm the only piece of the puzzle you're missin'
Like when we kissin' (bye, bye, bye)
You got a girl that'll (ride, ride, ride)
So take me, tonight
And do what you do to me baby
Girl, your stare, those eyes, I (love it when you look at me, baby)
Your lips, your smile, I (love it when you kiss me, baby)
Your hips, those thighs, I (love it when you fuck me, baby)
And I can't, deny I (love it when I'm wit'chu, baby)
Shorty, are you really gettin' bored with me, or him?
'Cause though I play a lot of games, I play 'em to win
(But then again I'm still young and I'm livin' my life)
You know you're right and I'm the type
To pull up to your bumper, get your number
(Baby, I can only help but wonder)
What life would be without (my sweet baby)
And you're my baby (holla if you hear me)
Oh, oh, oh, you can understand that my love is pain
And how I'm feelin' babe, it's just a woman thing
(It's a man's world, but I understand)
But there's still nothin' different boy, I stick to the plan
(You be my down ass, wit'cha round ass)
I know I'm feelin' you (like you feelin' me)
The way you're wantin' my body, the way you touch me
Girl, your stare, those eyes, I (love it when you look at me, baby)
Your lips, your smile, I (love it when you kiss me, baby)
Your hips, those thighs, I (love it when you fuck me, baby)
And I can't, deny I (love it when I'm wit'chu, baby)
I love when you touch me, baby
All over my body, baby
I love when you kiss me, baby
All over my body, baby
I love when you touch me, baby
All over my body, baby
I love when you kiss me, baby
All over my body, baby
Girl, your stare, those eyes, I (love it when you look at me, baby)
Your lips, your smile, I (love it when you kiss me, baby)
Your hips, those thighs, I (love it when you fuck me, baby)
And I can't, deny I (love it when I'm wit'chu, baby)
(Babycakes, you muthafucka, you sons of bitches)
(Ain't none of these niggas real like us)
(Ya dig? And yes sir, we're here to stay, right now, let's get into this muthafucka)
(Ya understand?)

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.
No Surprises
Radiohead

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/

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
Ha! I remember this song.
