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.
She draws my very depths from me in moments of astounded ecstasy
Why would I stop her getting next to me?
I just love her whole heart there sexing me oh!
My love is collecting me fields of roses and kissing me openly
She’s God she’s excepting me
The whole field late June getting wet for me WO!
I love what she sweats from me laughing as we melt in infinity
Perfect elegant boobs like a Da Vinci
Chorus:
Turn out the lights switch off the telly
We’re making love extra-ordinary
Switch off our phones draw closer to me
We can make life extra-ordinary
God knows but she gets to me
I’m kernel Mustard with the horn in the refectory
Laughter and love denote destiny
You ride a bike and read Rilke
So it’s meant to be Love!
You know Im just glad to be singing
Because yesterday
I was as blue as George Galloway investing in
The false hope of my Ego and not resting in
My hearts festivity the song that your giving me
Inner light will set you free from false captivity
Wake up your heart to being
A voice that is seeing
What you and me can be in
In Love
Chorus
You and me can open up our hearts just by being by our selves
You and me can overcome the pain just by feeling all our wealth
Inside
Chorus
We can make life
Why would I stop her getting next to me?
I just love her whole heart there sexing me oh!
My love is collecting me fields of roses and kissing me openly
She’s God she’s excepting me
The whole field late June getting wet for me WO!
I love what she sweats from me laughing as we melt in infinity
Perfect elegant boobs like a Da Vinci
Chorus:
Turn out the lights switch off the telly
We’re making love extra-ordinary
Switch off our phones draw closer to me
We can make life extra-ordinary
God knows but she gets to me
I’m kernel Mustard with the horn in the refectory
Laughter and love denote destiny
You ride a bike and read Rilke
So it’s meant to be Love!
You know Im just glad to be singing
Because yesterday
I was as blue as George Galloway investing in
The false hope of my Ego and not resting in
My hearts festivity the song that your giving me
Inner light will set you free from false captivity
Wake up your heart to being
A voice that is seeing
What you and me can be in
In Love
Chorus
You and me can open up our hearts just by being by our selves
You and me can overcome the pain just by feeling all our wealth
Inside
Chorus
We can make life

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
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,
