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”
Count me in unannounced, drag my nails on the tile
I just follow your scent
You can't just follow my smile
All of your flaws are aligned with this mood of mine
Cutting me to the bone
Nothing left to leave behind
You ought to keep me concealed just like I was a weapon
I didn't come for a fight but I will fight till the end
This might be your battle, might not turn out okay
You know you look so Seattle, but you feel so LA
Eh eh eh eh eh
Eh eh eh eh eh
Eh eh eh eh eh
Eh eh eh eh eh
And I love the way you hurt me
It's irresistible, oh oh oh oh oh oh yeah
Oh oh oh oh oh oh yeah
I love the way
I love the way
I love the way you hurt me baby
I love the way
I love the way
I love the way you hurt me baby
I'm gonna get you to burst just like you were a bubble
Frame me up on your walls, to keep me out of trouble
Like a moth getting trapped in the light by fixation
Truly free, love it baby, I'm talking no inflation
Too many war wounds and not enough wars
Too few rounds in the ring and not enough settled scores
Too many sharks and not enough blood in the waves
You know I give my lover a four letter name
Eh eh eh eh eh
Eh eh eh eh eh
Eh eh eh eh eh
Eh eh eh eh eh
And I love the way you hurt me
It's irresistible, oh oh oh oh oh oh yeah
Oh oh oh oh oh oh yeah
I love the way
I love the way
I love the way you hurt me baby
I love the way
I love the way
I love the way you hurt me baby
You're second hand smoke
You're second hand smoke
I breath you in, but honey I don't know
What you're doing to me
Mon Cheri, but the truth catches up with us eventually
Tryna say live, live and let live
I'm no good good, admit to this
Except when they're yours, mi amour
I'm coming for you, and I'm making war
I still love the way you hurt me,
It's irresistible, oh oh oh oh oh oh yeah
Oh oh oh oh oh oh yeah
I love the way
I love the way
I love the way you hurt me baby
I love the way
I love the way
I love the way you hurt me baby
I just follow your scent
You can't just follow my smile
All of your flaws are aligned with this mood of mine
Cutting me to the bone
Nothing left to leave behind
You ought to keep me concealed just like I was a weapon
I didn't come for a fight but I will fight till the end
This might be your battle, might not turn out okay
You know you look so Seattle, but you feel so LA
Eh eh eh eh eh
Eh eh eh eh eh
Eh eh eh eh eh
Eh eh eh eh eh
And I love the way you hurt me
It's irresistible, oh oh oh oh oh oh yeah
Oh oh oh oh oh oh yeah
I love the way
I love the way
I love the way you hurt me baby
I love the way
I love the way
I love the way you hurt me baby
I'm gonna get you to burst just like you were a bubble
Frame me up on your walls, to keep me out of trouble
Like a moth getting trapped in the light by fixation
Truly free, love it baby, I'm talking no inflation
Too many war wounds and not enough wars
Too few rounds in the ring and not enough settled scores
Too many sharks and not enough blood in the waves
You know I give my lover a four letter name
Eh eh eh eh eh
Eh eh eh eh eh
Eh eh eh eh eh
Eh eh eh eh eh
And I love the way you hurt me
It's irresistible, oh oh oh oh oh oh yeah
Oh oh oh oh oh oh yeah
I love the way
I love the way
I love the way you hurt me baby
I love the way
I love the way
I love the way you hurt me baby
You're second hand smoke
You're second hand smoke
I breath you in, but honey I don't know
What you're doing to me
Mon Cheri, but the truth catches up with us eventually
Tryna say live, live and let live
I'm no good good, admit to this
Except when they're yours, mi amour
I'm coming for you, and I'm making war
I still love the way you hurt me,
It's irresistible, oh oh oh oh oh oh yeah
Oh oh oh oh oh oh yeah
I love the way
I love the way
I love the way you hurt me baby
I love the way
I love the way
I love the way you hurt me baby

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
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 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.
I really ship Pete Wentz and Mikey Way, so every time I hear this song I always think of them because of the line "I love the Way". And if you listen to the song you can hear Pete saying "yeah" after it as if he is agreeing to it. Plus, in the final verse Patrick sings "mon cheri" which means "my dear" in French. But it means my dear to a male, not a female. If it was to a female it would have been "ma cheri".
@trisfairchild Actually, its it "mon ami" for my friend in French? Ma amie would be the feminine version--so Mon ami is male. I think mon cheri means "my darling"
When I think of this song I think of someone who got hurt by a recent lover and is planning on revenge.
