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.
I'm in the placekodak boy I ride with
The k, 1ki throw up the k, hold up the k
Everytime I get a good girl
I just push her away
I go to falling in too deep
Then I be running away
I was riding with the fire had to put it away
Them crackers back on my ass
They wanna put me away
They gone look me up then hook
Me up and book me today
Had a kind lil heart the
Streets done took it away
Hypnotized watching all my niggas
Cooking the ye i done sewed up the game I
Went to pushing the weight
Mama said the streets done took me away, took
Me away, took me awaytook me away

Everybody happy and they glad that we wasn't
Now I'm in the jag I don't

Like i'm just stuntin i just want the cash
Cause everything else coming

Be thinking that we punting

I be on a mission for them big face hunnids
Tryna stack them blueberries up like a muffin
Tryna hit ya kidney I be
All up in ya stomach-
She wanna run away like Harriet Tubman
Niggas wanna hate I just wanna get money
Everytime I get a good girl

Lil nigga so fly call me avatar
Lost a sack bounce back like a basketball
Before I got on my feet
A youngin had to crawl
Everytime I get a good girl

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/
Magical
Ed Sheeran
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.
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.
