In a world where some bands are handed everything on a silver platter, there's also a place where there's still some hardworking folks left. Boston's own pop-punk outfit, A Loss For Words are at the top of that list. Having released 3 EPs and their full length "The Kids Can't Lose" since 2005, they are a group with unstoppable dedication, hard work, and creativity. A Loss For Words have been regarded by members of Bayside, Four Year Strong and Bane as the hardest working band out there right now. Some people are going to ask what being a hardworking band even means anymore, and those questions are warranted. In a world where Myspace plays have somehow become more important than heart, the line that separates the real from the manufactured has become more than a little blurry. A Loss For Words know where they stand in this sea of blurred lines. A Loss For Words are out there on the road touring ten months out of every year. Not only are they out there playing shows, but are watching younger bands, pushing CD's in the parking lot, shaking hands and putting on one of the most sweat-soaked and honest sets you can find. A Loss For Words sees the wall that stands between them and success and they're not stupid. They know that maybe with some cool haircuts and electric drums there might be an easier way around it, but they've picked the path they've always known, breaking away at the concrete with their bare hands and it shows. I challenge you to find another unsigned band with these achievements: toured with Four Year Strong, Set Your Goals and Polar Bear Club, sold 6000 copies of a record that no one helped them put out, and that went to Japan on a 100% DIY agenda. With A Loss For Words, the guarantee is that no matter what town you live in, these guys will be there this year ready to shake your hand, hang out, rock out and have a good time. They are some of the nicest guys in the world and everyone should meet them.

I Just Called To Say I Love You
A Loss for Words Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

No New Year's Day to celebrate
No chocolate covered candied hearts to give away
No first of spring, no song to sing
In fact here's just another ordinary day

No April rain, no flowers bloom
No wedding Saturday within the month of June
But what it is, is something true

Made up of these three words that I must say to you

I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart

No summer's high, no warm July
No harvest moon to light one tender August night
No autumn breeze, no falling leaves
Not even time for birds to fly to southern skies

I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care
(Yeah, I do)

I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart

I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care
(Yeah, I do)

I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart

Overall Meaning

In A Loss for Words's song I Just Called To Say I Love You, the singer is expressing their love for someone in a very ordinary day, without any special occasion to celebrate. The first verse sets the scene, implying that there is nothing special happening on this particular day. The absence of events that usually mark special times of the year, such as New Year's Day, Valentine's Day, or the start of spring, reflects the flatness of the singer's mood. However, the second verse shifts the focus to the essence of the situation, which is the love that the singer has for someone special.

The singer makes an effort to express that love by simply picking up the phone and saying "I love you," repeating it several times throughout the song. This simple action takes on a special significance in the context of an ordinary day. Perhaps the singer is acknowledging that expressing love doesn't have to wait for a special occasion or a grand gesture, but can happen in small ways, just as it does in the everyday moments of life.

Overall, the song conveys a sense of the beauty and the power of love in its simplicity. The singer's declaration of love is heartfelt and sincere, and is made all the more powerful by the fact that it comes from an ordinary moment in time.

No autumn breeze, no falling leaves
Not even time for birds to fly to southern skies
No Libra sun, no Halloween
No giving thanks to all the Christmas joy you bring
But what it is, though old, so new
To fill your heart like no three words could ever do
I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care, I do
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart
I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care, I do
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart
Of my heart
Of my heart (baby, of my heart)
