@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
You seem like you?re impossible now
You want love, you want me to show you how
It feels like it?s all possible now
You need love, and I?m gonna show you how
You say that, I?m stupid
Without you I?m useless
I?m bothered, you don?t even notice
So how bout, you reach up
You realize, you see it
Come on, you really love this
You cry out loud when you?re reckless in the dark
You like the way it feels good
You love the way I make you forget
You turn me on, whenever you?re around
You like the way you feel it
I love the way I make you forget
You seem like you?re unstoppable now
You take love, and keep it all somehow
It feels like all I need is your help
I?m fading, alone all by myself
You say that, I?m stupid
Without you I?m useless
I?m bothered, you don?t even notice
You cry out loud when you?re reckless in the dark
You like the way it feels good
You love the way I make you forget
You turn me on, whenever you?re around
You like the way you feel it
I love the way I make you forget
You stay, I?ll stay, we?ll be alone
You want love, you want me to show you how
It feels like it?s all possible now
You need love, and I?m gonna show you how
You say that, I?m stupid
Without you I?m useless
I?m bothered, you don?t even notice
So how bout, you reach up
You realize, you see it
Come on, you really love this
You cry out loud when you?re reckless in the dark
You like the way it feels good
You love the way I make you forget
You turn me on, whenever you?re around
You like the way you feel it
I love the way I make you forget
You seem like you?re unstoppable now
You take love, and keep it all somehow
It feels like all I need is your help
I?m fading, alone all by myself
You say that, I?m stupid
Without you I?m useless
I?m bothered, you don?t even notice
You cry out loud when you?re reckless in the dark
You like the way it feels good
You love the way I make you forget
You turn me on, whenever you?re around
You like the way you feel it
I love the way I make you forget
You stay, I?ll stay, we?ll be alone

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'

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/

“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

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.
really good song pretty self explanatory
im not exactly sure what "you cry out loud when your reckless in the dark" means
overall, to me the song is about wanting someone so bad and being in love with them. they make you forget everything else you may not want to think of. they need each other and desire e/o a whole lot
CANNOT WAIT FOR THE LP!!! im pretty sure they said its coming out around march
