This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Who wants to laugh Who wants to sing
And who is the king of the disco swing
He wants to laugh and he wants to sing
But who wants to be the disco king
Over and over and over and over the radio's on but I don't hear a song
Absurd is the word to describe what I've heard and my heads in a spin
From the state that we're in
Hopeless me a fool I've been
I'm just two legs of the groove machine
I don't like the words I can't stand the beat
And I don't need the thrill of the world at my feet
I've entered a world
Full of ugly girls
With kisses and curls
And a hold on the world
How sick has it become
How sick has it become
How sick has it become
How sick has it become
(There's an idiot wind and there's lies on the rise)
So who wants to laugh and who wants to sing
But who the hell would be the disco king
There's an idiot wind and there's lies on the rise
And who is the king of the disco swing
He wants to laugh and he wants to sing
But who wants to be the disco king
Over and over and over and over the radio's on but I don't hear a song
Absurd is the word to describe what I've heard and my heads in a spin
From the state that we're in
Hopeless me a fool I've been
I'm just two legs of the groove machine
I don't like the words I can't stand the beat
And I don't need the thrill of the world at my feet
I've entered a world
Full of ugly girls
With kisses and curls
And a hold on the world
How sick has it become
How sick has it become
How sick has it become
How sick has it become
(There's an idiot wind and there's lies on the rise)
So who wants to laugh and who wants to sing
But who the hell would be the disco king
There's an idiot wind and there's lies on the rise

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/
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“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.
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
At the time 1990 was full of bands following the "baggy route" by adding a synchopated drum beat and a groovy bass line to a guitar riff with a snazzy phrased lyric. Many a top ten hit was sought out and won this way. Not judging, still tap my toe to many of them. The 'stuffies' never wavered from their narrow dark legged jeans roots. They added piano and fiddle after this homage to the bright lights of disco.
