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.
Girl you're kinda freaky
Got something bout your smile
And when you bounce it up and down
I can't believe my eyes I got to give respect
Cause you know how to tease
Keep on walking I'll keep talking
You would not believe what I would do
[Bridge]
With a girl like you
keep your body rocking
I ain't gonna stop I just want you
And you know it's shocking when you rock it
I'm a sick sick man 'cause
Girl I get that cold sweat
Creeping up on me
I ache when you shake it
Girl I'm just a freak
Yeah, you set that cold sweat
Tripping on me
Burning with the fever
Girl, you're killing me
Girl I'm just a freak in need of therapy
I count the ounce in every bounce
And I just want to feast
I love the way you work it
I love the way you grind
Ya got the funk in every pump If you could read my mind
What I would do....
[Bridge]
Down, you're burning me down
You're burning me down
You're burning me down
I love the way you shake now love the way you break
Now keep it coming baby I don't want to hesitate now
You got me hooked every look makes me freeze
180 degrees you make me buckle at my knees
Crazy rumpshaker, sexy move maker baby bring it on
Better sooner than later I feel a cold sweat creeping up on me
We gotta get it on tell me what it's gonna be
[Bridge]

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
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.

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.
I think that this song is just about a guy that's seen a girl and lust has kicked in to be honest. I'd say they're in a club and the girl is dancing. "keep your body rockin'" and "i ache when you shake it"
Five are one of my old favourite groups :] x
good ol five. can't believe hardly anyone has commented on their songs.. this is a great album song!
