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.
Trapped in the skies
What am I to do
Brothers from another planet
y'all know the truth
Papa was a Rolling Stone
Nigga Never (brouh!! )
Things I used to do with her I now do alone
Never blizzard
Freako, now leaning on towers I roam
You fell with watching
Makes these pigs think my styles be drones, ah
Fuck that bullshit
Rather walk alone
Nigga standing on the verge of
You know the song
Super rocket, Nosaj the Great,
And morcheeba
How much more can you take
It's
Te-te-te-te-terrible,
Te-te-te-te-terrible,
It's morcheeba
Super my rocket, brothers from another planet
y'all know the truth
It's morcheeba
Super my rocket brothers from another planet
y'all know the truth
Super my rocket, Nosaj the Great,
And morcheeba
How much more can you take
It's
Te-te-te-te-terrible,
Te-te-te-te-terrible,
On our way to the moon
Te-te-te-te-te-terrible,
Te-te-te-te-te-terrible,
On our way to the moon
Te-te-te-te-te-terrible,
Te-te-te-te-te-terrible,
Te-te-te-te-te-terrible,
Te-te-te-te-te-terrible,
It's morcheeba and a spaceship sighted
It's morcheeba and a spaceship sighted
It's morcheeba and a spaceship sighted
What am I to do

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
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
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.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
I'm big on Morcheeba, get this album first. Tricky takes a lot of warming up to, I'd say you need Massive Attack before you move onto Tricky.
What is this song about? A new fan here.
Hey! Am I the only one who loves Morcheeba? Well you are just crazy for not posting in this song! It is tight!!!!!
Yeah song is awesome. They're so creative. This is definitely one of their best songs... I'm surprised not more people have commented on it.
I haven't gotten this album, is it worth it, or should i get Tricky's Maxinquaye, Goldfrapp's Felt Mountain, or Beth Gibbon's Out of Season, instead?
it's all about the trip-hop. and morcheeba ofcourse
this song owns the album. or is a given as it is the album title track? haha
This song, world looking in, the sea. Excellent songs. Just excellent. Not enough people know of Morcheeba.
I love this song!!! I listen to it when I’m on a plane or driving in my car. It always pumps me up
