This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
This guitar took me around the world
Got me money and it got me lose women
And it left me empty handed at the end of the line
Stranded alone, broken out of my mind
This guitar always makes me drink
Never listens to the things I think
It just goes off and does what it wanted to do
I sit back and let it wind till it's trough
Just to play, just to play
till' i slip away
till' i slip away
This guitar fucking ruined my life
Lost me jobs and lost me wife's
And i swear Im going to strangle its skinny neck
Turning my sweet life into a wreck
This guitar haunts me from the case
I swear I put it back in its case
But then it sweet talks it's way back into my life
But every god damn time I gotta pay the price
Just to play, just to play
Till i slip away
Rich people i don't like wey-wey
The lazy money ain't got nothing to say they talk down to me like I got no education
they're the ones who are obsessed with their sprinklers-system
Every evening when the sun goes down
I get the guitar and i walk downtown
And I drink with my friends for the happy hour
Yes I drink, I drink till' I get the power
Just to play,
Just to play
Till I slip away
Till I slip away,
Till I slip away
Till I slip away
Got me money and it got me lose women
And it left me empty handed at the end of the line
Stranded alone, broken out of my mind
This guitar always makes me drink
Never listens to the things I think
It just goes off and does what it wanted to do
I sit back and let it wind till it's trough
Just to play, just to play
till' i slip away
till' i slip away
This guitar fucking ruined my life
Lost me jobs and lost me wife's
And i swear Im going to strangle its skinny neck
Turning my sweet life into a wreck
This guitar haunts me from the case
I swear I put it back in its case
But then it sweet talks it's way back into my life
But every god damn time I gotta pay the price
Just to play, just to play
Till i slip away
Rich people i don't like wey-wey
The lazy money ain't got nothing to say they talk down to me like I got no education
they're the ones who are obsessed with their sprinklers-system
Every evening when the sun goes down
I get the guitar and i walk downtown
And I drink with my friends for the happy hour
Yes I drink, I drink till' I get the power
Just to play,
Just to play
Till I slip away
Till I slip away,
Till I slip away
Till I slip away

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/

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.
Midnight
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Midnight” is a song about finding a love that is so true that it provides a calming feeling through every storm. Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms.
“Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.
