2) Gush are a French indie rock group from Paris consisting of brothers Xavier and Vincent Polycarpe and cousins Yan Gorozetsky and Mathieu Parnaud. They play an energetic brand of "over-rock" and their songs have a heavy emphasis on vocals and four-part harmony. Their influences range from The Rolling Stones and Neil Young to Michael Jackson and 70s funk bands. Their 4 EPs to date are "Amazing" released in 2005 (under their former name, Guts), "Rocking for My Children" in 2007, "B-Side" in 2008 and "Gush" in 2009. Their first full-length album, Everybody's God, was released in February 2010.
3) Not to be confused with the rock group Gush, this Gush is a Swedish trio that has been playing avant-garde jazz and free jazz since the 1980s. Its compositions have been cerebral and quite abstract, and its recordings have emphasized dissonance and outside improvisation. Gush was formed in 1986, when tenor and soprano saxophonist Mats Gustafsson (whose influences include Albert Ayler and late-period John Coltrane) moved to Stockholm and joined forces with drummer Raymond Strid and the Cecil Taylor-influenced pianist Sten Sandell. Gush's recordings for Dragon have included 1989's Tjo och Tjim och Inget Annat (which united the trio with fellow Swedish improviser Sven-Ake Johansson) 1990's From Things to Sounds... From Sounds to Things and 1996's atonal Live at Fasching.
4) In 2001 Leisha Hailey and Heather Grody changed the name of their duo, The Murmurs, to Gush. The band also included Jon Skibic, Brad Casselden and Dave Doyle. They released a self-titled album available only at shows. The band broke up in 2005.
5) Also there once was another group called GUSH involving Andrew Hulme of seminal ethno-ambient project O YUKI CONJUGATE as well as Mark Sedgewick and Tom Fazzini (who would later form A SMALL, GOOD THING). Their sound can be described as a mix or experimental and ambient textures.
6) Nicholas Lowery also makes music under the name Gush at www.gushsouthaven.bandcamp.com
Do It Again
Gush Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You're lucky I was not around
And you, you let go before your time
Moved yourself to higher ground
And I'm not gonna do it again for you
There's no time
What'd I get myself into?
Don't like to listen when my mother says
"You can't hurt me anymore"
And now, now you've gone and lost your head
What'd you even come here for?
Cos', I'm not gonna do it again for you
There's no time
What'd I get myself into?
So this is what you left for me?
You're lucky I was not around
But you, you let go before your time
Moved yourself to higher ground
And I'm not gonna do it again for you
There's no time
What'd I get myself into?
I'm not gonna it again for you
There's no time
What'd I get myself into?
This is what you left for me?
The lyrics to GUSH's song "Do It Again" tell a story of someone who has experienced hurt and betrayal in a past relationship. The singer is reflecting on the actions of their former partner, who has left them with emotional scars. The opening lines, "So this is what you left for me? You're lucky I was not around," suggest that the singer has returned to their former home or shared space and discovered some remnants of their past with their previous partner. Through this discovery, the singer is able to gain some perspective on the situation.
As the song continues, the singer becomes increasingly resolved to not fall into the same cycle again. They know that they cannot change the past, and they refuse to be hurt in the same way again. The repeated line, "I'm not gonna do it again for you," emphasizes this point. The singer is not willing to sacrifice their own well-being for someone who has already caused them pain.
The final lines of the song, "What'd I get myself into? This is what you left for me?" reflect the singer's confusion and hurt. They are struggling to come to terms with the pain they've experienced and the mistakes they've made in the past. Overall, the lyrics to "Do It Again" are a powerful and emotional reflection on the complexities of heartbreak and healing.

Je suis heureusement tombé sur cette pièce bien agréable. C’est dans la journée du poisson d’avril de 2015, je m’en souviens bien, que je l’avais rencontrée diffusée à la radio. Dans un train de Tokyo à sa banlieue, j’écoutais des émissions sur France Culture, comme j’en avais pris le pli pour m’accoutumer au français.
Tiède arrière-goût des petites vacances printanières à Tateyama avec mes camarades de faculté, tendresse vivement éprouvée pour mon amie avec qui je sortais, et enfin arrivée de la saison de rentrée ressentie à la brise douce du mois d’avril… tout cela, confondu et condensé en musique, résonnant au climat même du vidéo, est évoqué tout d’un coup par cette chanson fortuitement redécouverte. Bienheureux hasard.
