@[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.
Hm
Somebody told me
You were not coming home
The words are spinnin' in time
And the air suddenly went cold
The sun is still shining
But everything feels like rain, oh
And if I had one wish
It would be to see you again
Nothing's fair
When we loose
Without a moment to say goodbye
How come the world won't stop spinning
Now that you're gone (now that you're gone)
I know every end has beginnings
But this one's all wrong (this one's all wrong)
So wrong, so wrong
Caught in the middle
Wrong place, wrong time
And I'm hopelessly missing you
And I can't stop deny
Nothing's fair anymore
And I know there's a better place
And I'll never stop dreaming of you
Ooh
How come the world won't stop spinning
(now that you're gone) now that you're gone
I know every end has beginnings
But this one's all wrong (this one's all wrong)
So wrong, so wrong
How can the seasons keep changing
Since you disappeared
Oh yeah
(tell me) how come the world won't stop
How come the world won't stop
Sweet tears are shed
This pain we lay to rest
It's hard lettin' go
But I keep movin' on
In a place I don't belong
How come the world (stop spinning)
Said now that you're gone
I know every end has beginning
Said this one's all wrong
Said this one's all wrong
(how can the seasons) keep changing
Since you disappeared
Oh, you're gone
You're gone
How come the world won't stop
How come the world won't stop
How come the world won't stop spinning
Now that you're gone
Yeah hey ya
I know every end has beginning
But this one's all wrong
So wrong

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

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

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.
This song is soooo beautiful... I know, when you lost someone you love, the world is still the same, but to you it seems like it could never be the same again. Losing somebody is always the hardest thing one can experience...
This is such a beautiful song. She's saying how she doesn't understand how the world can keep spinning...how everything in the outside world can still be exactly the same, even though she's lost such a big part of her and she's completely different inside. She's saying how she lost someone she loved, whether she broke up with a boyfriend or someone passed away, and while she feels torn apart and like she can't go on, the sun is still shining outside and people are going on their way.
Anastacia said in an interview that this song was written for Aaliyah :)
Let me correct you here, Nillaith. She didn't dedicate the song to Aaliyah. The song was written for Lisa "Left Eye", the girl who hosted the show MTV The Cut, in which Anastacia was a contestant and where she got the second place. They made really good friends after that! A pitty! :(
