Aesthetically, GE is a project that refuses to land in a particular bin at the record store. A mix of vintage sounds, hip hop beats, noir riffs, dreamy vocals, cinematic arrangements and digital twinkle, ‘Cliquety Kliqk’ embraces all of RV’s musical addictions. Radically new yet strangely familiar, General Elektriks is like a friend that you meet for the first time but feel like you’ve known all your life.
Whisper to Me
General Elektriks Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It′s not what I had in mind
Where am I gonna go?
Who's gonna give me dole?
What am I gonna do with this?
What about all the things I miss?
I′m just halfway down the list
Who's gonna give me dole?
What about all the things I miss?
You've got the remedy
I heard you turn the key
You′re walking through the door
Now you′re breathing next to me
I want you to whisper to me
You know the rest is nice
When you whisper to me
My heart's like a brand new drum
I want you to whisper to me
You know the rest is nice
When you whisper to me
My heart′s like a brand new drum
It beats to the sound that you hum
When am I gonna make this work?
Everyday the fog gets thicker
Where am I gonna go?
Who's gonna give me dole?
When am I gonna make this work?
When am I gonna land this thing?
You know they really got me running
Where am I gonna go?
Who′s gonna give me dole?
When am I gonna land this thing?
You've got the remedy
I heard you turn the key
You′re walking through the door
Now you're breathing next to me
I want you to whisper to me
You know the rest is nice
When you whisper to me
My heart's like a brand new drum
I want you to whisper to me
You know the rest is nice
When you whisper to me
My heart′s like a brand new drum
It beats to the sound that you hum
I want you to whisper to me
I want you to whisper to me
Want you whisper to me
