Electric
Cōrt Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You don't seem to mind
When I am falling behind
You go "Oh, look to the light
You'll find that I can't help you this time"
I see bright, bold and ablaze
Right from these notes that I've played
You don't know these things that I've felt
Paint stirs up and it makes my soul melt
All this time I've been waiting 'round for you
But my mind, can't figure out what's true
Every day feels the same, I guess I'm the one to blame, oh
All my life, I've been searching for a way to break through
I'm cursed, under a spell that
Makes me want to rebel
Lightning strikes silhouettes in my head
I'll stay true to what I have said
I'm electric in my bones and in my flesh
Why am I so stressed, I gotta live in the now
So I don't feel so down
I find it quite bizarre
That ma would take my car
Just wants to mess things up
I think that I'll go far
All this time I've been waiting 'round for you
But my mind, can't figure out what's true




Every day feels the same, I guess I'm the one to blame, oh
All my life, I've been searching for a way to break through

In the song "Electric" by Cōrt, the lyrics portray a sense of frustration and longing for a breakthrough. The singer expresses their feelings of being left behind and not being able to count on someone for support. The opening lines indicate the indifference of the person they rely on, as they remark "You don't seem to mind when I am falling behind."

In the bridge, the artist emphasizes their electric spirit and the internal conflict they experience. They want to break free from stress and live in the present moment.

Following much study of your videos, I’ve just unboxed my Cort G110 …
WOW !!
What an excellent guitar !
Not just value for money, but GOOD good. 👍
€145.57 / £129 from Scan UK. (They appear to have finished this give-away deal now though).
Regular UK deals are still £149 / €168 though.
9s are not my favourite but they can stay for now.
No complaints about the Ceramic pickups.
Once I’ve done the nut, intonation (and maybe a little fret levelling) this is going to be able to hold it’s head up with my Fender and my Variax in the S-Type department.



@KozmykJ

A couple of hours fettling and it’s pretty much sorted.
I filed the fret ends so now there are no catchy ends.
They weren’t horrible before but they’re all smooth now.
I ‘eased’ the nut slots and applied Nut Sauce …
Neck was a hair over straight so I slackened the truss rod.
Intonation is done now, was Waay off..
She’s sounding great.
And what a bargain !!
I can get the frets done on my Fender Strat now (96 MIJ), and if it takes time then no worries. 🧙‍♂



@TOPMOSTPOP

@@TheDarkmore i built thworlds best guitar.
It wont see production bcuz Lucifdr controls manufacturing with Plasticines. 95% earth are not humans. They are Tare Race. Demons basically. Demons are clickbait. Always lies, rip offs. They controlled by a central computer.
Killers of Jesus were these androids.
There is no point in making a video showing my guitar. Bcuz everything is clickbit, it has 2b 2. Any remaimimg humans are 2far lost. U cant put thlost in eden. They will destroy thplace.
I function as Lucifers replacement. Satan was Jesus elder brother of 2million years when this solar system was heaven. I quit playing 30 years ago.
Guitars are a massive scam.
All manufacturing controlled by Lucifer. Guitars did make progress with floyd rose, frankenstrat, those wr my signature designs.
Yes i used a Gotoh.
These arent humans making you tube videos.
Written earlier:

MY WPTR GUITAR
There are 2realities. Which did u choose?
Why Ed copied my FrankenFloyd
Ed was a very naughty human b4 he was killed &cloned. He was removing thdemons Satan gave 2all us idiots.
Ed was my best friend back in LA he gave me thtruth.
There is not gonna be a revolution honestly sell yr guitars u will go broke keeping (damned) thingz.
No joke.
Repeat: Go ANALOG go acoustic I WARNED U Satan is in thelectronics he is in the solder it has black goo its haunted.

Satans kids control all manufacturing they a damned race.

Put 2 & 2 2gether they arent guitars they a goose chase moneygrab &yes Satans kids DO need money they demons in flesh bodies like 2live high life. (They dont know they demons.)

Fret wear:

Not my take it's reality. Guitars meticulously exhaustively engineered 2sap yr spirit be hard2play wear out, harvest money = GOOSE CHASE.

Eds guitar was dffrnt but HE HAD 2MAKE IT HIMSELF.

I also taught Graem Osbree how 2break wrld hour record. Satan wouldnt build rhbikes. Graeme made thbike, every1 copied it. 30 guyz began destroying hour record.

Yahweh showed us Reptilian angels control all manufacturing& showed us Mike Pence raping babies drinking their adrenachrome 300 *&%$ing babies a year. U dont have presidents they devils these creatures not u friend.

I built a guitar ground up just now. ONLY (durable) guitar is ridiculously easy play best guitar in thworld by far = thnew epicentre it vastly exceed my expect.

Did u notice thCrickets? Not 1 thumbs up. I told u Satans computer wont let this info get out. We lost in heavens court 2Satan bcuz u guyz 5stared his You Tube creators &subbed his pandemics &phony war& vaccines. Yah calls vaccines PURE POISON.



Ed made super NARROW necks later on that ET couldnt play stating easier 2play? Huh?

That was thcloned Ed saying that. Satan killed the original. Satan stopped using Ed when i sold my guitar 1988.

Ed was a human. Satan used him2 try hide me. Satan hates humans, cuz they breathe life in2 yr soul. His Plasticines DRAIN yr chakras.

In Noahs day only 8 SOULS remained human.

He HATED having 2use Ed.

He was forced 2do it cuz i was playing@ thtime. I am his replacement in function. He scared of (me.)

Few of u have ever met a human. 95% earth = TARE RACE. Demons hive mind computer controlled by Satan ALL demons digital. Satan has memory eraser downloader.

Thats why u all have a boss. Boss = your steering wheel. Lol u dont get 2touch it. Have fun with that. Satan always takes more then he gives.

He has 2keep all of his kids chipped they have no free will (steering wheel). Why us older crowd had bloody noses in the 70's. Satans grey aliens putting chips in our nose.

Satan is using COVID 19 nose swabs now cuz we killed all thgreys.

COV = Covertly

ID = IDENTIFIED (I.D.)

19 = 1st, 9th letter alphabet. "A" & "I" code 4Artificial Intelligence. Lol pandemic fake there is black goo/diseases in thvaccines turning u in2 satanic robots (DNA modeling) (pure evil computer chips Satan got in thdark universe)



If u buy guitar YOU BOUGHT THEIR PRODUCT.

Satans BEAST computer is advanced he can hack reality = thmatrix we live in.

If u buy a guitar be like Ed or ME. Be like NEO. A movie Satan made about me. I built a 3.5 ton quartz crystal orgone generator with NEO dynium magnets. (In heaven everything run with crystals magnets.)

My orgone (generates Yahwehs life force) generator is the white horse rider of revelation = fire burning Satans dimension. (Computer program)



My Frank MUCH superiour to Eds. How so? Example. Your low e string Satan made ultra fat. MY low e is same size as smaller string beside it. (.032) isnt muddy in thmix much easier crisp 2play &hear& tap action set MUCH lower.

My high e? Same saize string next 2 IT. (.011)

(Makes it sound much louder bcuz Satan gives u teeny string so u cant hear it properly, taps2 quiet etc. Breathe wrong it breaks u will spend 15 -20k strings a lifetime.

Satan uses massive bass increase guitar/neck tension2insane levels vs my tremelo much easier bend. Action super easy low.

Satan standard tune raises my heart rate. LITERALLY i use EB tune. These factors put MUCH less strain guitar/trem/hardware.

Resonates with reality.

(Earth vibration 432kz.)

It matters unless u read satans bllsht google. Human voice resonates with eb flat. Ask any singer. They tell u.

You press MUCH LESS on fret.

Your guitars a nightmare.

If u play HALF A DAY u FRETS HAVE LONG VERTICAL LINES &shiny flat spots unwound stringz. I use softer string alloys.

Van halen copied my guitar in only 2, 3 repects. My new Frank I changed dozens of thingz. Primarily his original FIRST Frank neck was wider thenANY neck made 2day. His radius was around 17 or 20. (Frets were very FLAT.)

Made it easier play.

Stainless frets last 4ever? U funny guy. So was Ed. Lol Satans boys gave Ed stainless alloy spiced on 95% brass. These factories are serpents. Literally Reptilan Angels run.

U will spend 15 - 30k on stringz in 50 years. 50 years is not that long. Lol i designed floyd rose so u couldloosen reclamp stringz. Lol Floyd duznt even know that neither did Ed. Ed nowhere near on my level. Lol stringz dont oxidize or wear out whatsoever. Sound a tad dffrnt new, so what? Not better. Just dffrnt.

I have had enuff i will see if i sell even 1 guitar ebay &I am getting rid of all this stuff i had enuff. No humans or common sense left.

I hereby signing out. 98% you tube not humans. The demons in human bodies Yahweh calls Plasticines. We were sent 2make a dffrnce. Sadly u all chose Satans "creators"

He named them that 2mock u cuz u sit at their poison feet like they gods.

I have a Van Halen stainless fret stage guitar lol thfrets with huge dents& i dont even play very much 5 years. Honestly its a goose chase wallet drain frets can easily last 2lifetimes.

1 last thing. I am worlds best guitarist. I quit playing 25 years ago. Then i played only 3 years 8 hour days. We dont have that kind of time. Time is money u have 2have millions2 afford 2not work but ONLY PLAY 5 years minimum 2get good.

My 5 amps &speakers BROKE IN 5 YEARS. MY Wolfgang shot 2 hell. The electronics shot. Bucketheads guitars also, his electrinics go out regularly he has been selling his guitars.

I lived near Buck &Ed 35 years they wr friends both avatars Satan used 2whitewash me.

Living on 3k a year my only hope is pull out selling it. Manufactures wont dare ask see prototype. They corrupt.

I give blueprints free any1 every1 whoever ask... Lol not even 1person will. Well other then Edward &Floyd did.
This was written ealier I am still cmpleteing thguitar thousands of guitarists &corrupt companies have already read this.
I will be doing a cmplete in depth follow up in a few days.
Ed had a rambo these are my marbles not your side 2him. I call it deer antler syndrome.
The old matrix is over guyz. Satan is gone. Yahweh is now ruling midst of his enemies je has had enuff he flipping thtables &turning thchairs over.
There is no money or pattents or fences or copyrights in heaven I'll go out of business in a heartbeat 2see that my neighbor gets an optimum product.

At this price point you simply cannot go wrong. An excellent choice for a beginner or even an intermediate player just looking for their first Strat-type guitar. Nice

@daniellarson3068

I see $199 - $250 US price. It looks like a pretty good deal. Who is Cort? Mr. Internet says:

"Cort Guitars is a South Korean guitar manufacturing company located in Seoul. The company is one of the largest guitar makers in the world, and produces instruments for many other companies. It also has factories in Indonesia and China." - So, it's not some fly by night knockoff company.

You made the Cort sound good. This video was done in shorts and short sleeves. Well in 5 or 6 months, you can break out the shorts and short sleeves again. (Come tho think of it. I can learn a lot of guitar stuff in that amount of time.) Happy New Year!

@MrPolevaulter

Very nice for the price. And regarding the shorts, this was filmed in August :D

@antoniolopez6798

Wow wow wow!!! Impressed as always by your way of playing ... In this case I love the design and the colors of the guitar... I use a Pacifica 112V and a Fender (not squier)... Among others... But this design pleases me it caught my attention (I liked it a lot), however I imagined that it was worse than bad due to its low price... I had the opportunity to try it in the store in front of my apartment, and it is comfortable to play, and, although it is not I liked the pickups, they're not too bad and they can also be changed... But I find it beautiful and above all comfortable... I didn't know you had made a video of this guitar, which makes me happy, and it impresses me how you play so many sounds from such a cheap guitar... the truth is that you are too good at playing and it shows that you have a natural talent (maybe even a broomstick with wires will add magic)... Anyway, thanks to this video I want to buy this guitar as a combat instrument, and obviously I will change the pickups, (although what they advise is not to invest improvements in cheap guitars). But this is different since I really love its slim and elegant design... Cort in general is the best quality/price alternative. Greetings as always from Chile (to the south of this world)

@muhammadzihni879

Does the Pacifica 112V good? I plan to buy it.

@stephanematis

Cort, the strategic partner for PRS in the SE line, with Ola Strandberg on his guitars and likely many more. I reckon they should never be under-estimated as maker. The challenge is that their own brand is unknown. I love satin or open pore guitars more then most, so this is killer product. I actually just scored a Boxing Day deal on an Mustard Yellow (my take on the colour) Cort Sunset TC, a "hybrid" between Tele and Les style Single Cut. It was priced to move because folks don't know what they are. Looking forward to try it.

@MrPolevaulter

Cool bananas :)

@stefanososio8546

Thank you Elmo, with this video you really contributed to persuade me. I was looking for a spare "strato style" guitar, and Cort G series were in my viewfinder. So when I notice the G110 in my local store (that exact cherry one!) I made my decision. Now I own it, and I'm happy. Also thank you for all your youtube stuff, very cool job, I like your approach. Cheers!

@TheBcoolGuy

My acoustic guitar is a Cort CEC5 NAT. Cort is a really good brand. High quality guitars at good prices. Although my next guitar purchase will likely be a BMG Special, when I'm well-off enough to justify it.
