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.
If this thing should come around, I'm gonna take it down
No more treading through my space, I need to separate
It's inside, its looking to break free and constantly taking everything
As I bring it all way
Now bring it on to me
Bring it on!
Face down and broken all around, I'm gonna send it here
Don't you make yourself out to be,
Just need to go after me
It's inside, its looking to break free and constantly taking everything
As I bring it all way
Now bring it on to me
No!
Bring it on Son
(All the way, All the way)
Bring it!
(All the way, All the way)
Bring it!
It's inside, its looking to break free and constantly taking everything
As I bring it all way, All Day
Now bring it on to me
Bring it on! Yeah!

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,

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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/
This song is so freakin awesome. Its off of Madden 06. This is definetly one of Godsmacks best songs. It means Bring it on. All the problems, all the bull, all the stupid people, Bring it on. That's what Sully's saying.
Someone else needs to comment on this song. This song is awesome.
Awsome song...if this is on the new album that's 2 for 2 in terms of great songs....and another great thing about a new cd coming out is a new tour...can't wait to see them as teh headliner, saw them back in 2004 with Metallica...If you haven't seen them live, I highly recommend it....TOTAL ENERGY!
This is the best song off of Madden '06. Wonder how Madden '07's soundtrack is gonna B like. They should add more songs on there that'll get U pumped up instead of the rap songs that just make me want to roll a joint and buy sum rims.
What is it about "As I bring it all way, all day"?
