Here we are at this party
Everything is going down
Music's playing loud
Keep the pressure off my coffee table

Momma said it's not loud
Girls are laughing way too loud
Jocks stand around
Oh damn they look so proud

A dude is spinning records
Like a stupid fool that won't stop
Quiet, quiet, baby
My ears are about to pop

Look who just walked through the door
It's Brian back from the store
To show the party he can
Break it just a little more

Hope there's more to life than this
I'm sure there's more to life than just
Spinning in circles
You got me spinning in circles

Hey there little girl
Haven't seen you for some time
How's life been
Is it good, is it bad, is it fine (so fine)

Sorry gotta make my rounds
See you when it dies down
Music so loud
Hell, your voice is drown

Hope there's more to life than this
I'm sure there's more to life than just
Spinning in circles
You got me spinning in circles

Now that the party's over
Hope everybody leaves here sober
Don't forget your lovely coat
I'm so relieved that nothing broke

Whoa whoa stop right here, what do you know
She just brought me another one
Just like the other one
Sorry pretty baby but I think I'm done

You better slow down girl
You look a little wired
I gonna slow down myself
'Cause I'm a little tired

Hope there's more to life than this
Better be more to life than just
Spinning in circles
Spinning in circles
A one, two, one, two
Spinning in circles
Spinning in circles
The end

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”

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,

Just A Little Lovin'
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/
