The sun fell down again last night on my anger
The sun fell down again last night on frustration
And on my spite

And I didn't even cry
I didn't even try to stop it at all
I just stood there and watched it fall

And this is the last song that I should ever sing
Just one more time and I'll shut my mouth forever

    okay... the thing with Mineral is you listen and listen, and you love the song and everything. But one day, it just hits home. Totally out of the blue.

    Just one day, you're mowing the lawn or reading a book or whatever and listening to some song of theirs, and it just strikes you.. oh yeah, this is what was baing said! You get a completely clear, perfect vision of Chris' soul.

    July "happened" to me when I was driving. It's 3AM now, so that's why I'm just typing something so ramble-y, and I don't know if I'll even be able to express what I felt or understood in tha tmoment.

    Have you ever gotten so angry at someone, without the proper reasoning behind it? And then they bite back, and that's when you realize you've been horrible to this person .. whether it be for three seconds or five hours or a whole weekend. So they're telling you how they feel, and you realize they're right, you simply recognize it as the truth... You can't cry. You can't even move.

    I'm not sure if I'm right, anyone else got any ideas?

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
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”

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/

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.

Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
