My Bloody Valentine – Swallow

  General Comment:Love the Clarinet sounding melody in the background, combined with the subtle bongo riff throughout, it has a very snakecharmer-like quality. Just awesome how they MBV'ified it with the washed out guitar noise over the top of everything. This is the sound of Love.

  General Comment:You know, it's music like this that makes me never want to touch my guitar again - because music like this cannot be topped in beauty. It just can't. GG everyone.

  General Comment:This song is sexy... Think it's about giving head... Regardless it's my favorite MBV song along with To Here Knows When.

    Then why does it mention "love" more than once in the lyrics. If it were just about oral sex, wouldn't it omit any mention of love? IDK, but I hope so. I hope the song is a little deeper than what you believe.

    You can absolutely enjoy oral sex as an act of Love. I think that is the not-so-hidden theme...a joyous description of a freely given gift.

  General Comment:Sorry but I can't understand the meanings of MBV's lyrics. It's just sounds, not lyrics : " Sweetheart, I want to know, ...". It's bullshit.
