All can be heard in the catalog of GGF, loud and clear.
Lest that growing and sometimes eclectic list start to encounter accusations of academism, the members of Guru Groove Foundation are equally (if not invariably) keen to stress the jollity in their performances. "The band has a cheerful, progressive sound that's always up-to-date. We interweave a live groove with electronica in ways that pulse with both strict and broken beats!"
We interweave a live groove with electronica in ways that pulse with both strict and broken beats!
Overseeing this collective effort is frontwoman Tat'iana Shamanina, whose CV includes victory at a number of major jazz competitions. In more mundane, yet necessary quarters, she also has extensive experience as a Moscow session vocalist.
Eager not to fall behind in the race towards widespread respect, Shamanina's colleagues insist that "the other members of GGF also have an impressive range of professional experience! They're always glad to hear of opportunities for experimentation and collaboration."
Call Me Up
Guru Groove Foundation Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I could make all your life and feelings better
Don't question me cause I know
That I'm old flame of yours
Up up up
I'm the best gift in your life
Don't question me cause I know
That I'm old flame of yours
You took away my breath I knew it
Cause it's so hard inside when you try and try
To kiss the fire
There's no more sign, am I right?
I'm gonna wanna get the best from you.
Call me up, I'm your operator
Pick up the phone. Take it. Do it right.
Call me up, I'm your operator
Take your time, call me up tonight
Up up up
You know better than I
What happened between me and you
It's only for two
I know better than you
I couldn't wait till my patience turns blue
While you can talk the all night, all night through
So let me know until you go
And what am I gonna do
You know better than I, but I know better than you
When you're checking my life
Feels coming and saying
Babe, our love is real
Now take a look at yourself
I don't know why it happens with me...
Call me up, I'm your operator
Take your time funk me up tonight
Call me up, I'm your operator
Take your time funk me up tonight
Call me up, I'm your operator
Take your time funk me up tonight
Call me up, I'm your operator
Take your time funk me up tonight
You know better than I
What happened between me and you
It's only for two
I know better than you
I couldn't wait till my patience turns blue
While you can talk the all night, all night through
So let me know until you go
And what am I gonna do
You know better than I, but I know better than you
When you're checking my life
Feels coming and saying
Babe, our love is real
Now take a look at yourself
I don't know why it happens with me...
Call me up, I'm your operator
Pick up the phone. Call me up tonight
Call me up, I'm your operator
Take your time funk me up tonight
You know better than I...
The lyrics of Guru Groove Foundation's Call Me Up explore the idea of an old flame rekindling and the desire to reignite a past relationship. The singer is confident of their value in the other person's life, stating they are "the best gift" and can make their life and feelings better. They acknowledge that the other person has already had an impact on them, taking away their breath and making it difficult to resist the temptation of their previous connection. The singer implores the other person to call them up and take their time, insinuating that they are willing to work on the relationship and explore their feelings once more.
The chorus of the song, "Call me up, I'm your operator, take your time, funk me up tonight" is a direct request to the other person to communicate and try to reignite their old love. The lyrics to the verses reveal a certain vulnerability and uncertainty on the singer's part, "While you can talk the all night, all night through, so let me know until you go and what am I gonna do" suggesting they are waiting for a response and unsure of what to do in the meantime.
Overall, Guru Groove Foundation's Call Me Up is a soulful and heartfelt plea for a second chance at love.

I could make all your life and feelings better
I have the ability to improve every aspect of your existence
Don't question me cause I know
Do not doubt me, as I am certain of what I am saying
That I'm old flame of yours
I am a past love of yours
You took away my breath I knew it
You have taken my breath away, and I am aware of it
Cause it's so hard inside when you try and try
It is difficult internally when you attempt something repeatedly
To kiss the fire
To experience a powerful passion or attraction
There's no more sign, am I right?
There is no longer any indication of what we once had, correct?
I'm gonna wanna get the best from you.
I am seeking to receive the finest qualities that you possess

Answer the phone and handle the conversation appropriately

You have a greater understanding of our situation than I do
What happened between me and you
The events that occurred between us
It's only for two
It is a matter that only concerns the two of us
I know better than you
I am more informed than you are
I couldn't wait till my patience turns blue
I could not wait any longer for my patience to run out
While you can talk the all night, all night through
While you have the capacity to talk all night long
So let me know until you go
Inform me before you depart
And what am I gonna do
What action should I take?
When you're checking my life
When you examine my existence
Feels coming and saying
You sense an emotional response and are expressing it
Babe, our love is real
My darling, our love is authentic
Now take a look at yourself
Now examine your own actions and behaviors
I don't know why it happens with me...
I am uncertain as to why it always seems to happen with me
Take your time funk me up tonight
At your leisure, please play funky music for me tonight
