This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Lovely laughter sitting on a wall
It's lovely after all
You can read between the lines
But it's only notes and dots and rhymes
It's only music
Truth -- it brings no consequences
So we might as well stop making sense:
Nickles, tulips, bottles and incense
And these objects with their names
Are only empty lightweight frames --
Seagulls, sun, riding on my bike
Words can't really tell you what this feels like.
This feels like green and white stripes
The sun on my skin
This tastes like green and white stripes
Is this the mood we're in?
This feels like green and white stripes
This sounds like green and white stripes
This tastes like green and white stripes
This feels like green and white stripes
Am I alright?
Lyrical degrading, emancipating these words from what they stand for
No one's holding me tight so I'm wrapped in a dictionary
It's kind of scary, weightless is a synonym for light
It's not a piece of fabric
It's not a chunk of time
It's not a strap of leather
It's not a peace of mind
This feels like green and white stripes
This sounds like green and white stripes
This feels like green and white stripes
This feels...
It's lovely after all
You can read between the lines
But it's only notes and dots and rhymes
It's only music
Truth -- it brings no consequences
So we might as well stop making sense:
Nickles, tulips, bottles and incense
And these objects with their names
Are only empty lightweight frames --
Seagulls, sun, riding on my bike
Words can't really tell you what this feels like.
This feels like green and white stripes
The sun on my skin
This tastes like green and white stripes
Is this the mood we're in?
This feels like green and white stripes
This sounds like green and white stripes
This tastes like green and white stripes
This feels like green and white stripes
Am I alright?
Lyrical degrading, emancipating these words from what they stand for
No one's holding me tight so I'm wrapped in a dictionary
It's kind of scary, weightless is a synonym for light
It's not a piece of fabric
It's not a chunk of time
It's not a strap of leather
It's not a peace of mind
This feels like green and white stripes
This sounds like green and white stripes
This feels like green and white stripes
This feels...

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”
Holiday
Bee Gees
Bee Gees
@[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.
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/
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
