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.
It was a big day on Jesus Ranch, Jesus Ranch
He was harvesting a big tomato,
He was in the sand, all right
I'm taking a walk in the woods,
It's nice outside
Smells of shit
Lig a guing gligga gigga googa gwey oh go
I come upon a silver striped mushroom
And I flylalala ly la ly
And I fly fly
It was a big day on Jesus Ranch, Jesus Ranch
Jesus, I fell in love with a baked potato
When I started to dance, yeah, in France
I'm taking a walk in the woods, fuck you
It's nice, very very nice
Smells of shit
Lig a guing gligga gigga googa gwey oh go
I come upon a silver striped mushroom
And I flylalala ly la ly
And I fly fly
Flylalala ly ly ly
And I fly I'm gone…
(Freestyle)
I come upon a silver striped mushroom
And I flylalala ly la ly
And I fly fly
Flylalala ly ly ly
And I fly I'm gone…
It was a big day on Jesus Ranch, Jesus Ranch
Jesus, I fell in love with a baked potato
Go!

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.
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.
