To Jorma

It's all too much
It's all too much

When I look into your eyes, your love is there for me
And the more I go inside, the more there is to see

It's all too much for me to take
The love that's shining all around you
Everywhere, it's what you make
For us to take, it's all too much

Floating down the stream of time, of life to life with me
Makes no difference where you are or where you'd like to be

It's all too much for me to take
The love that's shining all around here
All the world's a birthday cake
So take a piece but not too much

Set me on a silver sun, for I know that I'm free
Show me that I'm everywhere, and get me home for tea

It's all to much for me to see
A love that's shining all around here
The more I am, the less I know
And what I do is all too much

It's all too much for me to take
The love that's shining all around you
Everywhere, it's what you make
For us to take, it's all too much

It's too much (ah)
It's too much

With your long blond hair and your eyes of blue
With your long blond hair and your eyes of blue

You're too much, ah
We all get too much

Too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
Too much
Too much

Too much, too much, too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much

    My Interpretation

    All-time favorite psychedelic song: a swirling synaptic overload set to music. A kaleidoscopic vibration sent forth across the cosmos... beyond the realms of Dionysian epiphany into implosions of intensified light and unearthly color. I always wondered about the strange syllables before the transcendent feedback at the start of this song. I now know that one of the Beatles was saying "to your mother" but before learning that I always heard it as some sort of primordial mantra of creation - almost like saying "Let there be light"; as if George was speaking some sort of very powerful syllabic combination in a state of meditation: TU - YO - MOH! ♫♪♫♪ and then the worlds and the cosmos are brought forth into being. Oh my God - those first bursts of melody from the organ - they undo my soul completely. Yes - I'm getting verbose - sorry, but that's what beautiful psychedelia does to me. This song is so full of celestial synesthesia it often reduces me to tears. Part of it is because I had the album as a child and I loved it in an innocent way for years before I ever cared about altered states of consciousness. The Beatles generally affect me in that way. I was very sad when George passed away and I hope he may be in Heaven but not so sure... If you like this song as much as I do you may enjoy the image I found by Mati Klarwein to accompany it (although no mere image can ever do justice to the empyrean vibrations of this universal anthem). connecthook.wordpress.com/music/its-all-too-much/
