Touch Me I'm Going to Scream Part 1

My Morning Jacket

Touch me I'm going to scream if you don't
Inside I norm'ly (know we?) have the feeling that you won't
I know it sounds confusing, but it makes a lot of sense
Row a boat across the ocean, dig a hole under the fence

Touch me I'm going to scream if you don't
Inside I norm'ly (know we?) have the feeling that you won't
I can tell by the way you smile, I'm smiling too
I see myself in you
I can tell by the sounds you make when you are pleased
You see yourself in me

Touch me I'm going to scream if you don't
Inside I norm'ly (know we?) have the feeling that you won't
How many nights can a soul so full of life remain untouched
how can a soul make the most of what is whole and what is hear

I need a human right by my side, untied, untied
I need a human right by my side, untied, untied
I need a human right by my side, untied, untied

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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,

He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
