My name is-
My name is-
My name is Charles II!

I love the people and the people love me
So much that they restored the English monarchy!
I'm part Scottish, French, Italian, a little bit Dane
But 100% party animal- Champagne?

Spaniels I adored, named after me too
Like me they were fun with a natty hair-do!
Is today my birthday? I can't recall!
Lets have a party anyway because I love a masked ball!

All hail, the king, of bling, lets sing, bells ring, ding ding
I'm the king who brought back partying!

King Charles, my daddy, lost his throne- kings were banned
They chopped off his head then Ollie Cromwell ruled the land!
Old Ollie wasn't jolly, he was glum and he was proud
Would be miserable as sin- only sinning's not allowed!

When Ollie died the people said "Charlie, me hearty!
Get rid rid of these dull laws, come back, we'd rather party!"
These actions what they call the monarchy restoration
Which naturally were followed by a huge celebration!

The king, of Eng (-land says!), no sin, to sing, or anything
All say I'm the king who brought back partying!

Great London fire was a whopper-
In my reign London city came a cropper-
So this king did what was right and proper-
Fought the fire, proved I'm more than a bopper-
I'm a fire stopper!

Married Catherine Braganza- she was a love so true
There would never be another- well maybe one or two!
Lucy Waters, Nell Gwynn, Moll Davis, Barbara Villiers,
You think that's bad but her name's not as silly as:
Hortense Mancini!

As king I must admit I broke the wedding rules
But who cares 'cause I brought back the crown jewels!
I reinstated Christmas, make-up, sports and even plays!
I was the merry monarch... they were good old days!

When said, and done, King Charles (that's me!), did run, England, for fun
I was the king loved by everyone- my song is done!

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

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.

Amazing
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.
