“Clearly its evident,” she uttered into the machine.
“Amateur journalists of late seem to lack discipline.”
A frightening trend she thought as she wiped her glasses clean. Retiring another vodka drink with diligence.
Aperitifs arrived transporting poisons to our tickled sides.
She waived the waiter by and asked him to view an old photo of mine. “Would you have known that this man’s words would inspire millions?” The conversation was dry but for the first interview in years it was fine.

“In the beginning it was easy it just poured out of me.
I had this place near ishikawa that I shared with Jii.
I'd spend my morning in the trellis writing over tea.
It was Jii’s profound love of the flower that inspired Reed.”

“Postcards From Out of Town, your third novel, made waves the whole world round.” She place her notebook down and without asking she ordered another round. “Were you surprised?” she said searching for something in my eyes.
“To be so we’ll received by Europeans after writing malady?”

“Well as you know the Europeans are quite dear to me,
but to be honest those review meant so little you see,
I believe an artist when he’s looking, he can’t really see. So I keep my eyes closed tight and all my fingers on the keys.”

This was the last exchange for only moments later an anxious waiter screamed “It’s out of love my brothers that I give my life and deliver each of us. but for you ungrateful sinners this was your last dinner and the last chance to make peace. For all of your worldly pleasures, and unholy leisures I pray god grants forgiveness NOW!

Postcards from out of town inform me your condition remains sound.
A line read world round. As ashes blow through windows all over town

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

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/

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
