This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I know a soul,
That wanders alone.
That can't compute,
Why on earth they would need charm.
I'm a test,
Like the very first book you read,
That you'll shunt aside,
The very first chance you get.
Careful and quiet,
But who would call it cautious?
Our whispers are wild,
We are not just lovers.
I know a soul,
That knows not of love.
That will push their fears,
Onto someone else.
Remembering what was said,
On that sad sad night we met.
When the door closed on us both,
And we met each other's sad sad souls.
Careful and quiet,
But who would call it cautious?
Our whispers are wild,
We are not just lovers.
Careful and quiet,
But who would call it cautious?
Our whispers are wild,
We are not just lovers.
You are young, and afraid,
But you are not all the same,
You can glow, and not gloat,
You cannot do wrong boy, nay.
That wanders alone.
That can't compute,
Why on earth they would need charm.
I'm a test,
Like the very first book you read,
That you'll shunt aside,
The very first chance you get.
Careful and quiet,
But who would call it cautious?
Our whispers are wild,
We are not just lovers.
I know a soul,
That knows not of love.
That will push their fears,
Onto someone else.
Remembering what was said,
On that sad sad night we met.
When the door closed on us both,
And we met each other's sad sad souls.
Careful and quiet,
But who would call it cautious?
Our whispers are wild,
We are not just lovers.
Careful and quiet,
But who would call it cautious?
Our whispers are wild,
We are not just lovers.
You are young, and afraid,
But you are not all the same,
You can glow, and not gloat,
You cannot do wrong boy, nay.

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
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/
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
I'm pretty sure the last line is actually "you cannot do wrong by me."
Brilliant song. :)
love this song !
I think that the second line in the last verse is supposed to be "But you were loved all the same", not "But you are not all the same".
