Electric Feel
Kygo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All along the western front
people line up to recieve
she got the power in her hands
to shock you like you won't believe
soaring through the amazon
with voltage running through her skin
standing there with nothing on
she's gonna teach me how to swim
said uhh girl
shock me like an electric eel
baby girl
turn me on with your electric feel
said uhh girl
shock me like an electric eel
baby girl.
said uhh girl.
all along the eastern shores

this is what the world is for
making electricity
said uhh girl
shock me like an electric eel
baby girl
turn me on with your electric feel
said uhh girl
sick me like an electric eel




baby girl you turn me on.
said uhh girl

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Kygo's "Electric Feel" may seem enigmatic and whimsical at first glance, but deeper analysis reveals a theme of sexual attraction tied to the power and allure of electricity and the natural world. The opening lines set a scene of people waiting to receive something โ€“ almost as if in anticipation of receiving an electric shock. The next line shifts the focus to a woman with electrifying power in her hands that can shock someone. This creates an image of power dynamics within sexual relationships, where one person holds the power to excite and stimulate the other.


The verse takes a turn as the song's narrator explores Amazon with his subject, who has "voltage running through her skin." This suggests a deeper connection to nature and the power of electricity as a force in existence. In the following lines, as the subject stands with nothing on, there is a sense of vulnerability and openness as the singer is willing to let the subject "teach me how to swim," symbolizing a willingness to learn and be transformed by the power of electricity.


The chorus repeats the phrase "shock me like an electric eel" as a playful riff on the idea of being electrified and turned on by someone. The singer is "turned on" by the subject's "electric feel," creating a connection between the primal force of nature and human sexual desire.


Overall, Kygo's "Electric Feel" can be interpreted as an exploration of the power dynamics of sexual attraction and the natural world's role in inspiring desire and transformation.

JW & OUR Jilly, for myself, being selfishly/unselfish and for my own feedback loops ..... Let's face it, if my circulatory system is not functioning exquisitely/ I risk impacting all of our God flock.

So, JW, you already did SONG 'COMIC CONVERSATIONS'
HOWABOUT NOW ...... SONG 'CONTINUOUS CONVERSATION ' you/me and Our Jill??? FOR ME, your middle SISTAR??? 1.37 am tapping my foot waiting... grrrr

ONYA GORGEOUSNESS, so for this, which we could lob into any post at all, just going blah blah blah,
Would you two co joined twins like to invent your own nickname for continuous conversation, or I will call on Bruce & Jim & H..... have a dwell, could be more funner if they pick, me thinks Dorks... next song paleness, KYGO 1.43 am
Our telepathic voice of Oz, I reckon I just flummoxed him. Smiling, ROAR WITH LAUGHTER
The same divine bro , who is originating from brother Bruce... all the brats ... at our house, they would bloody well have us babe's, little curly tops, me and TJ, laugh out loud , I am cracking up laughing and can't write.

These two, used to encourage us to jump off the garage roof, as we could fly, lucky, they did bother to create a soft landing pad, as these two had NOT purrfected THEIR WHITE MAGIC, they could do it a bit, yet, it certainly was not consistent. STILL, we all lived to tell the tale... Crikey Kylie one day lifted me up and beyond ... One day a BIG BUG LANDED IN THE DAHLIA GARDEN, maiits I already told this tale. See ya kygo, sorry for dragging the ANCIENTS here. I fly off into the arms of BUGS AGAIN, see kittens, DAD merely morphs ...

Hey, Whispering Voice of Oz, am I still the most hated woman??? 12.41 am Friday.
Errr, not sure chick, let me check... 12.42 am Friday.

Well? 12.55 am have I made any headway, whatsoever, no probs me, if no. 12.56 am

WJ? 12.56 am
Cough it up maiiit, good or bad, Agyris FEED BACK LOOPS FOR STRATEGY JEANNIE BOUFFANT is gonna wanna know, HE WONT 'give a toss'/ what others think of us he says 'is none of our business', Mum & DAD we're same.

I was always so dreadful shy, if you spoke to me, I would blush, or, very unfortunately SWEAT.

Many years later, I do have the wisdom to deal with this crap AND not one of my kittens is to suffer such shame and embarrassment.

One of my HORRID LIFE LESSONS has been how to either endure, get rid of, or recognise and walk on by CHARACTER OF TOXIC WOMAN.

The shocker is this character is LIGHT & DARK FORCE, so in order to lead kittens, MY HORROR LIFE TESTS WERE OVERCOME TOXIC WOMEN.

Yes, kittens, you are so right, CaroMum is well aware of LIGHT & DARK FORCE TOXIC MEN, however, MY UNIQUE TEST WAS WITH TOXIC WOMEN.... WHY YOU mew mew 1.09 am
Well, if one kitten amongst you lot wishes to hear an ancient old cat who identifies with the 1961 time line, Present moment, Step Up AND OUT HERE ON CENTRE STAGE WITH ME NOW ...
1.12 am Friday
