Cover art for Emerald City lyrics by United States Of Electronica

U.S.E. is originally a northwest USA (Portland/Seattle) band, and this song is clearly about Seattle in the summer. One of the downsides of Seattle is in the winter, it only gets like six hours of daylight - but in the summer, it's a major upside, as it gets like eighteen. It's hard to explain the vibe, everyone is all excited, soaking in the sun as fast as they can to make it through the next winter. Everything is unbeleivably green, hence the name 'Emarald City'.

p.s. a couple of corrections: It's 'hearts are getting closer', not 'pops'. And it's 'give me some loving', not 'five me some loving', although I have to admit the other version is more amusing.

This song has this one overly creative use of grammer that will stick in your head: 'I never had it so well.' Just wait. Ten years from now it'll still be popping up occasionally.

I've left Seattle - I couldn't take the winters any more - and one of the things I will miss the most is U.S.E. - 'We Love It!'
