Electric Feel by MGMT


Album: Oracular Spectacular

Genre: IndiePop
Year: 2008

Mood: Trippy and Happy


My discovery, love, and addiction for indie songs is credited to this song.  I was hooked the moment i was introduced to MGMT.  As I was listening, I couldn't help but feel confused and wondered with I was hearing through my head phones.  Where was the usual bass-blasting beats from rock songs? Where was the mellow-dramatic rhythm from sentimental songs?  Where was the upbeat tunes from hip-hop and R&B?  This was a totally new genre for me and I'm glad i discovered it.


This song is to be used when your day seems long, when your engulfed in a trance wondering about the future.  May this song bring you life! Happy listening!




Lyrics:

"Electric Feel"



All along the western front
People line up to receive
She got the power in her hand
To shock you like you won't believe
Saw her in the amazon
With the voltage running through her skin
Standing there with nothing on
She gonna teach me how to swim

I said ooh girl

Shock me like an electric eel
Baby girl
You turn me on with your electric feel
I said ooh girl
Shock me like an electric eel
Baby girl
Turn me on with your electric feel

All along the eastern shore

Put your circuits in the sea
This is what the world is for
Making electricity
You can feel it in your mind
Oh you can do it all the time
Plug it in and change the world
You are my electric girl

Said ooh girl

Shock me like an electric eel
Baby girl
Turn me on with your electric feel
I said ooh girl
Shock me like an electric eel
Baby girl
Turn me on with your electric feel

Do what you feel now

Electric feel now
Do what you feel now
Electric feel now
Do what you feel now
Electric feel now
Do what you feel now
Electric feel now
Do what you feel now
Electric feel now
