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.
so they say diamonds are a girls best friend,
well i got some jewels for you!
i want you as much as a genital herpes
And love you as much as crabs
SO IT'S TIME FOR DOOM
PREEEEPARE FOR TOTAL DOMINATION
YOU HAVE A UNIBROW

BOOM SNAP CLAP BA BOOM SNAP CLAP SNAP
BOOM SNAP CLAP BA BOOM SNAP CLAP SNAP
BOOM SNAP CLAP BA BOOM SNAP CLAP SNAP
BOOM SNAP CLAP BA BOOM SNAP CLAP SNAP
Sniff my pit I don't wear deodorant
LICK MY PIT I DON'T HAVE ABSORBERANT
well i got some jewels for you!
i want you as much as a genital herpes
And love you as much as crabs
SO IT'S TIME FOR DOOM
PREEEEPARE FOR TOTAL DOMINATION
YOU HAVE A UNIBROW
I said!
BOOM SNAP CLAP BA BOOM SNAP CLAP SNAP
BOOM SNAP CLAP BA BOOM SNAP CLAP SNAP
BOOM SNAP CLAP BA BOOM SNAP CLAP SNAP
BOOM SNAP CLAP BA BOOM SNAP CLAP SNAP
Sniff my pit I don't wear deodorant
LICK MY PIT I DON'T HAVE ABSORBERANT

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,
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/
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
this song has amazing breakdowns.
maybe the song means his trying to announce that he has crabs and just gave it too a girl as a joke but this should be on the radio though such great talent<br />
this song is ridiculously awesome. amazing breakdowns.
what the eff? amazing amazing amazing
breakdowns? as if there are more than one?
there is a single breakdown and it is good
but there arent multiple breakdowns.
its like 1.30 long its like a bridge with a break thats it dumbasses.
better yet the whole song is like one breakdown.
fuckbags
This song is ridiculous, but I love it. It's like, good bad metal.
The only thing I like about this song is the boom snap clap breakdown... The breakdowns fucking amazing... But that's the only thing this song has going for it...
The rest of the song sucks... The music isn't good... The lyrics are poorly written and tasteless... The vocals are ok...
This song reminds me of xGUMBYx- Kill Everyone..
omfg i saw them last night it was killer. ahahaha "the wall of death" made me want to piss my pants =P
idk if their lyrics are even interperateable, but obviously they mean somthing. well, let's hope. but if theyre just for fun thats cool too.
HEAVY AS F**K but it so random it makes IWABO's lyrics look like poetry. Yep, its that random
