    This one's more about the energy and punk-vibe of the band than some kind of intellectual statement. I still love the anti-nationalist sentiment, though ('dumb flag scum', indeed).

    I love this song! When you're slagging the monarchy ('death sentence heritage') you don't need to be eloquent, just coherant! Somebody should bring a ghettoblaster to a football match and blare this when the national anthem's supposed to come on. Heh!

    Oh christ, nobody's done this one either! This defininitely should've been released instead of Love's Sweet Exile (which is a pretty fantastic song too). One of the greatest punk protest songs since Anarchy in the UK.

    Repeat was released as a double A-side with Love's Sweet Exile. Although i suppose of the two tracks Love's Sweet Exile was given preferential status. I'm not quite so keen on this song, but you've got to like the heavy guitar parts!

    This is a great rocker (unlike its shitty US counterpart) but lyrically I think it is quite shallow, especially for the manics.

    It's probably the weakest song on the album, and taking Public Enemy's Countdown To Armaggeddeon part. It's still good though. And i think yeah ok, lyrics are just fun!! I don't like the queen.

    I find it funny that Iron Maiden are on at the start...

    Since Maiden are kinda pro-britain

    I'm sure Repeat (UK) and Repeat (Stars and Stripes) are the same song...

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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/
