Recorded in a Victorian water tower on what was once Queen Victoria's estate, “And Then…Nothing” displays a dazzling range of influences and beautifully crafted songs. From the gentle acoustics of “Concrete Hands” to the Hammond infused sweat soaked melodies of “Stop”, from the punky riot of “Come On” to the beautifully epic album closer “Moodyman Left”, this is an album that is breathtaking in its breadth and glued together with compelling songwriting. The album was produced by Jackson Analogue with some notable help from Head (Polly Harvey, Massive Attack) who helped in areas of production and mixing at both Studio Luca (Isle Of Wight) and Massive Attacks 1 point 6 studio.
The band have a deep respect for the blues-rock of Muddy Waters and Creedence Clearwater Revival, a classic British sensibility that derives from a love of the Who, Led Zep and Family and an affinity with the '90s rock and grunge of the bands own youth. These wildly divergent influences are all mixed and matched to create a sound that is uniquely their own, taking the best of rock 'n' roll's rich patchwork and re-stitching it in new shapes and patterns.
Jackson Analogue are a band for all those who still believe that music is about passion not fashion and the right song counts for more than the right hair cut. The lusty five piece create music that is raw and vibrant, characterized by epic riffs, memorable songwriting, killer vocals and maverick attitude. The perfect analogue music for the digital age? You decide…
Stop
Jackson Analogue Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My lovely girlfriend
Don't you know when to stop
You're my sunshine
My Sunday sunshine
Always time for her cause I say so
You're the one
You're the evil one
You're the thorn inside everyone
Love you my little girl
Sometimes I live on fear
'Cause I know you're wicked too broken because of you
'Cause I know you're wicked too broken because of you
Don't you know?
Ahhh you know
You're my long stay
My someone Sunday
My lovely lady you're one, two, three, four
Times the memory the painful memory
The ones before you have stopped
Love you my little girl
Sometimes I live in fear
'Cause I know you're wicked too broken because of you
'Cause I know you're wicked too broken because of you
Don't you know
Ahhh you know
The song "Stop" by Jackson Analogue seems to be a love song that is very flawed and mixed with emotions of fear and pain. The chorus of the song is very repetitive, emphasizing the idea of the singer's girlfriend being a destructive force in his life. He describes her as being both beautiful and wicked, the sunshine in his life but also the thorn inside everyone. Despite being aware of her flaws, the singer cannot stop loving her, even though he lives in fear of the consequences of this love.
The lyrics in the second verse hint that the singer has been hurt by previous girlfriends, but his current love surpasses all of them. She is his "long stay" and "someone Sunday," indicating that she is a permanent fixture in his life. However, this love comes with a price as the singer admits to "living in fear" because he knows that she is the reason for his brokenness.
The song "Stop" seems to be a portrayal of a toxic relationship that is filled with love and pain. The repetition of the chorus emphasizes the idea of being trapped in the cycle of a destructive relationship. The lyrics reveal that although the singer is aware of the negative aspects of his girlfriend, he still cannot stop loving her. The song may speak to those who have experienced a similar kind of relationship, where the love is both comforting and toxic.
