1. Mud was a British rock band, heavily influenced by 1950s rock and roll, but moving beyond it into mainstream rock.
The members were Les Gray, Rob Davis, Ray Stiles, and Dave Mount. They had fifteen hits in the U.K., including three number ones. More recently Rob Davis has written numerous successful songs for newer artists, including U.K. number ones for Kylie Minogue and Spiller.
2. Mud is also the name of a dark ambient project, a collaboration between Steve Hall of Yen Pox and Traig Foltz of Used.
3. Originally from the island of Guam. In 2001, the San Francisco music scene began to resonate a little louder with the induction of indie newcomer MUD. Describing their sound as, “A blending of punk’s energy and the edge of metal,” their raw guitar riffs, heavy bass grooves and depth in song writing have since drawn comparisons to successful crossover bands like Jawbreaker, NOFX, Letters to Cleo, Green Day and The Foo Fighters.
Over the years, MUD has become a frequent fixture at Bay Area landmark venues such as Slim’s, Bottom of the Hill and The Warfield. MUD has since expanded their resume to include the 2006 Van’s Warped Tour, headlining SF’s Live 105 Official Warped Tour After Party , opening for national touring acts such as The Matches (Epitaph), April Sixth(Elektra), The Forces of Evil (members of Reel Big Fish) and Camp Freddy (Slash,Duff McKagan,Scott Weiland,Billy Morrison,Matt Sorum) as part of the Recording Academy's Tribute to SF Music Past and Future,featuring guest artist Steve Jones,Joe Satriani,Lars Ulrich,Robert Trujilo,Mike Bordin,Jeremy Colson,Chester Bennington,Mark McGrath and Stephen Jenkins . Tracks from MUD’s current CD, "Where is Tomorrow", have received domestic and international airplay on such popular stations as LIVE 105, KALX 90.7 and THE ROCK 105.1 FM. Recently signed to San Francisco indie label Talking House Records, MUD is currently working on material for an expected release in 2007.
Can't Stop
MUD Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I guess it shows in everything I do
I want the world to see
It ain't no passing thing
It's how I wanna be
Must be the love you bring
And I can't stop, thinking about you
(Oh baby) you gotta hold on me
I used to be the one to doubt it ever happened
Then you came and that broke all the rules
When I look in your eyes
It makes me realize
I'm doing what I should.
It's never been so good.
And I can't stop, thinking about you
Can't stop (oh baby), doing without you
(Oh baby) you gotta hold on me
No matter what they say
You can't hide love away
And I can't stop, thinking about you
Can't stop (oh baby), doing without you
(Oh baby) you gotta hold on me
And I can't stop, thinking about you
Can't stop (oh baby), doing without you
(Oh baby) you gotta hold on me
The lyrics to MUD’s song “Can’t Stop” are all about being head over heels in love with someone and feeling like you can’t go on without them in your life. The opening lines show just how deeply the singer feels about their significant other: “I know you know the way I feel about you, baby / I guess it shows in everything I do.” They want the world to see how much they care, and they believe that it’s not just a passing infatuation, but a true and lasting love brought on by the person they’re with. “It’s how I wanna be / Must be the love you bring.”
The chorus repeats the phrase “can’t stop,” emphasizing the singer’s inability to let go of this person. They can’t stop thinking about them, can’t stop wanting to be with them, and can’t stop being affected by them. The bridge section acknowledges that the singer used to doubt they could find real love, but the arrival of their current partner changed everything. “When I look in your eyes / It makes me realize / I'm doing what I should. / It's never been so good.”
The final bit of the song doubles down on the message of its chorus. “No matter what they say / You can't hide love away.” The singer wants their love to be known and acknowledged by the world, and they’re not going to let anyone or anything stop them from feeling this way. “Can’t Stop” is a joyful celebration of the all-encompassing emotions that come with falling deeply in love.
