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.
When you walked into the room
There was voodoo in the vibes
I was captured by your style
But I could not catch your eyes
Now I stand here helplessly
Hoping you'll get into me
I am so into you
I can't think of nothing else
I am so into you
I can't think of nothing else
Thinking how it's going to be
Whenever I get you next to me
It's gonna be good
Don't you know?
From your head to your toes
Gonna love you all over, over and over
Me into you, you into me, me into you
When you walked into the room
There was voodoo in the vibes
I was captured by your style
But I could not catch your eyes
Now I stand here helplessly
Hoping you'll get into me
I'm so into you
I can't get to nothing else
I am so into you, baby
I can't get to nothing else
No, no, no, come on baby
I'm so into you
Love the things you do
Listen baby, driving me crazy, oh
Love the things you do
There was voodoo in the vibes
I was captured by your style
But I could not catch your eyes
Now I stand here helplessly
Hoping you'll get into me
I am so into you
I can't think of nothing else
I am so into you
I can't think of nothing else
Thinking how it's going to be
Whenever I get you next to me
It's gonna be good
Don't you know?
From your head to your toes
Gonna love you all over, over and over
Me into you, you into me, me into you
When you walked into the room
There was voodoo in the vibes
I was captured by your style
But I could not catch your eyes
Now I stand here helplessly
Hoping you'll get into me
I'm so into you
I can't get to nothing else
I am so into you, baby
I can't get to nothing else
No, no, no, come on baby
I'm so into you
Love the things you do
Listen baby, driving me crazy, oh
Love the things you do

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Gentle Hour

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,
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.
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.
Come on folks! Stop leaving stupid comments and actually freaking interpret the lyrics! This is songmeanings.com not "song ratings" or, "share a life story.com".
Anywho, this man is has such an inward burning passion for this woman that he desires her intimately, too. It's to the point that it's driving him crazy because she consumes his mind. All he does is think if her.
This song is straight up sex. “Thinking how it's going to be” - he’s thinking about the sex they’ve had & can’t wait to do it again. “Whenever I get you next to me. It's gonna be good. Don't you know?” - self explanatory. They have good sex. “From your head to your toes” - pure lust, the tingles you get while having sex. “Gonna love you all over, over and over” - he’s going to fug her over & over again. “Me into you, you into me, me into you” - he’s going to be “in” her. She’s going to be into him. So, pretty much all the thrusting.
So, it’s not about love. Just obsession, lust & sex.
IMHO.. I think he's definitely overcompensating because he knows she rocked his world.. and she only wishes she could've said the same thing. She tried to not hurt his feelings though because he really did try very hard. So she feels bad about letting him continuously try when she knew it was a waste of time.
@ImYourTerror <br /> <br /> She never quite knew how to tell him he wasn't capable. So she feels super bad about letting him spend so much time trying. Kinda.
I love this song!
Great, unknown, underrated song. The bluesy guitar is addictive.
Their sound changed a great deal since "Spooky". For the better in some ways.
when you walked into the room.. there was voodoo in the bag ... i was captured by your staff, but i coud not catch a ride
I am so into you... i can't thank another nurse
^^ that's how i sang along to it the past 40+ years
This song was inspired by co-writer Robert Nix\' love (from afar) for Leslie Hawkings. Leslie was a member of The Honkettes - the female backing singers for Lynyrd Skynyrd.
Was a 'long distance dedication' from Ed in Los Angeles to Erika at Stanford University on American Top 40 for 02 December, 1978
