Milano

Milano sguardo distratto
Bacio di ghiaccio
Capto frequenza di intolleranza e mancanza di tempo e di vento
Intenso traffico denso e ripenso
Al motivo per cui vivo tra il grigio di questo cemento
Ci sono immigrati in edifici occupati
E gli shuri imboscati dietro sicuri giardini privati
Dai quartieri duri ai locali tra troie e avvocati
Tra muri e palazzi pittati e futuri pazzi sclerati
Ma siamo alla fine della settimana
E sta scendendo il Sole dietro Porta Romana

Sei troppo bella per dirti addio
Tu chiami e poi
Noi tutti ubbidiamo
E tra chi nomina il tuo nome invano
Ci sono anch'io
Milano, Milano

Milano quando sono lontano voglio tornare
Milano quando ci sono voglio scappare
Il cielo un foglio di rame
Per la vivace attività industriale
L'industriale si droga, poi vota che la droga fa male
Ipocrisia nuda come modelle sul cartellone
Dei saldi fuori stagione in Monte Napoleone
Bambini sniffano colla alla Stazione Centrale
E Piazza Affari tracolla su vita superficiale
Ma c'è chi tiene accesa la lotta
La manifestazione parte a Porta Venezia

Sei troppo bella per dirti addio
Tu chiami e poi
Noi tutti ubbidiamo
E tra chi nomina il tuo nome invano
Ci sono anch'io
Milano, Milano (Milano)
Nel tuo veleno che noi respiriamo
Ci sono anch'io
Milano, Milano (Milano)
Tra la ringhiera e il sogno americano
Ci sono anch'io
Milano, Milano

Non c'è mai parcheggio ed è sempre peggio
Settimana della moda, vita mondana in coda in auto a noleggio
L'alternativo beve vino vicino agli yuppi in Brera
Sera a tema tropico latino, tutti in fiera
Tra chi rapina per la cocaina
Sento un vecchietto che canta in dialetto alla sua Madonnina
Quando la nebbia scompare in lui mi riconosco
Come una goccia nel mare, io mi ritrovo al mio posto
E devo a te quello che sono
E alle luci di un tramonto sopra Piazza del Duomo

Sei troppo bella per dirti addio
Tu chiami e poi
Noi tutti ubbidiamo
E tra chi nomina il tuo nome invano
Ci sono anch'io
Milano, Milano (Milano)
Nel tuo veleno che noi respiriamo
Ci sono anch'io
Milano, Milano (Milano)
Tra la ringhiera e il sogno americano
Ci sono anch'io
Milano, Milano

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

Holiday
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.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

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
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/
