I salute to you Commander
And I sneeze
Cause I have now
An allergy
To your policies it seems

Where have we gone wrong America?
Mr. Lincoln we can't seem
To find you anywhere out of the millions
From the deserts
To the mountains
Over prairies
To the shores
Is this just the madness of King George
Yo George
Is this just the madness of King George
Yo George
Well you have the whole nation
On all fours

    Once again an ill-informed musician has attempted to make a political statement through their work, and once again the musician has contributed nothing more than an unavailing piece of blather. Personally, I feel that musicians, and actors alike, are better off simply forgoing the production of any politically inspired work unless they have the innate proficiency to do so. Names such as Bob Dylan and bands like Rage Against the Machine have that requisite proficiency, and their incessant success attests to that. However, when lesser artists, not necessarily overall lesser but those lacking that political proficiency, attempt to do so they end up falling short and unfortunately for Amos she has done just that.

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/
