The most promi… Read Full Bio ↴Lodger is a name used by several bands and musicians:
The most prominent is this entry:
1) Lodger is a Finnish indie band, formed by Teemu Merilä in 2002. Although largely unknown outside of Finland, they have established a cult-following on the internet due to the popularity of their flash music videos. Their first video "Doorsteps" and all their subsequent are designed by the bands lyricist Hannes Häyhä.
Their big break-through was with the internationally known flash-video 'I Love Death' which was later followed by the videos 'God Has Rejected The Western World' and '24h Candy Machine'.
Their first album, Hi-Fi High Lights Down Low, is rarely found in record-stores but can be bought over the internet at www.stupido.fi, also check amazon marketplace.
Their second album, How Vulgar, received lukewarm critical and fan response -- but don't let that stop you from listening. The tracks "Friends" and "Brunswick Centre" are among their best.
Their third and latest album, Honeymoon Is Over, is, to paraphrase Merilä, what How Vulgar should have been. Much of the music has a harsher tone than their previous work.
For flash videos go to lodger.fi and for news of tours, or updates, use their myspace www.myspace.com/lodger as this is actually updated from time to time.
In 2007 there was a small tour of America and there may have been a trip to the UK also in 2007.
2) Lodger was also a late 1990s indie 'supergroup' composed of Danny Goffey (Supergrass), Pearl Lowe (Powder), Neil Carlill (Delicatessen), and Will Foster (also Delicatessen). The band released one album, A Walk in the Park, in 1998.

Lord is my feeder
Lodger Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With you, a downhill's no ball
You fill me up with your love
Like a hand fills a glove
Call you on the phone
Getting off-tone
Walking alone, I feel so old
Life is a dull routine
You are my buprenorphine
Tried to send you a text
From this world to the next
It must be a busy life you lead
All these hungry mouths to feed
The song "Lord is my feeder" by Lodger is a tribute to the overwhelming presence of love in the singer's life. The first verse paints a picture of how small and powerless the singer feels without love. Conversely, the chorus shows how love is the perfect fit, just like a hand in a glove. This indicates that the singer feels complete and whole in the presence of love.
The second verse brings out how meaningless life feels without love. The singer draws on the analogy of the drug buprenorphine to emphasize how important love is to their life. The bridge shows the singer trying to communicate with their loved one, but their attempts are unsuccessful due to the magnitude of their partner's responsibilities. The final line suggests that their partner has many people relying on them, but despite that, they still make time to be with the singer.
Overall, the song "Lord is my feeder" captures the essence of the love and comfort that is derived from a relationship with someone special. The song identifies how indispensable this love is to the singer and how it brings a new dimension to their life.
