1) Spoon is an American indie rock band from Austin, Texas. The band was formed in late 1993 by lead singer/guitarist Britt Daniel and drummer Jim Eno. Current members also include: Eric Harvey (keyboard, guitar, percussion, backing vocals) and Rob Pope (bass, backing vocals - replaced Joshua Zarbo in 2007).
After releasing their debut LP Telephono on Matador Records, the band signed with Elektra in 1998, but the contract was dropped soon after the band released A Series of Sneaks. In response the band released a two-song single titled The Agony of Laffitte (referring to Elektra A&R man Ron Laffitte). Eventually they signed to Merge Records.
Spoon has been met with widespread critical acclaim. Girls Can Tell, released in 2001, sold more copies than both their previous releases combined. Kill the Moonlight accomplished the same feat a year later. Gimme Fiction was released on May 10, 2005 and continued the trend of increasing popularity for the band.
Britt Daniel wrote much of the soundtrack to the 2006 film Stranger Than Fiction. Four tracks by Spoon are also featured.
The band released their sixth studio album Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga on July 10, 2007; those who purchased the first pressing also received a bonus disc titled Get Nice!.
Transference is their seventh studio album. It was released on January 18, 2010 in Europe, and on January 19 in North America, to moderately positive reviews.

Inside Out
Spoon Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Time gets distorted when
There's intense gravity
I don't got time for holy rollers
Though they wash my feet
And I won't be their soldier
There's intense gravity in you
I'm just your satellite
I'm just your satellite
Ooh, and I know that time's gone inside out
And now it's only like we told you
Hm, though they wash my feet
They do not make me complete
Break out a character for me
Time keeps on going when
We got nothing else to give
We got nothing else to give
Ooh, 'cause our time's gone inside out
I don't make time for holy rollers
Hm, there's only you I need
They do not make me complete
The lyrics of Spoon's song Inside Out talk about the idea of time and its connection to intensity and how it can get distorted in such situations. The song talks about a person who is not interested in being a follower of religion or any religious leader, as they do not believe it can complete them, but they acknowledge the gesture of having their feet washed by the holy rollers. However, the person feels incomplete despite this act of kindness. They describe a sense of intense gravity in someone that they are orbiting around like a satellite. This person seems to have all that the singer needs, and they do not wish to make time for anything else, as their time is already "gone inside out."
The second verse continues this theme and repeats the chorus, giving the idea that time is a finite resource that we cannot afford to waste. The line "break out a character for me" could be interpreted as a request for someone to show their true self, and the singer emphasizes that time keeps on moving even when we have nothing else to give. The final lines of the song repeat the chorus, reemphasizing the idea that holy rollers or religion do not make the singer feel complete, and it is only the intense gravity of someone else that can complete them.

Time's gone inside out
Time has become distorted and difficult to keep track of
Time gets distorted when
There's intense gravity
Time becomes warped and distorted under extreme emotional pressure
I don't got time for holy rollers
Though they wash my feet
And I won't be their soldier
I have no patience for religious zealots, even if they try to appease me
There's intense gravity in you
There's intense gravity
I'm just your satellite
I'm just your satellite
Your intense emotional energy pulls me in and makes me feel like a mere follower
Ooh, and I know that time's gone inside out
And now it's only like we told you
Hm, though they wash my feet
They do not make me complete
I am aware of the warped nature of time, and while religious followers try to help me, they are not enough to fulfill me
Break out a character for me
Time keeps on going when
We got nothing else to give
We got nothing else to give
Give me something unexpected or exciting, because even when we feel empty, time continues to move forward
Ooh, 'cause our time's gone inside out
I don't make time for holy rollers
Hm, there's only you I need
They do not make me complete
Our sense of time has become distorted, and I don't have patience for religious people - only you are important to me, but even you cannot fully satisfy me

Is it possible to fall in love with a song? Â If I could marry a song, I would marry this one.
Lyrics:
Time's gone inside out
Time gets distorted with
This intense gravity
I don't got time for holy rollers
Though they may wash my feet
And I won't be their soldier
There's intense gravity in you
(There's intense gravity in you)
I'm just your satellite
(I'm just your satellite)
Ooh, and I know that time's gone inside out
And now it's only like I told you
Mmm, though they may wash my feet
They do not make me complete
Break out of character for me
Time keeps on going when
We got nothing else to give
We got nothing else to give
Ooh, cause our time's gone inside out
I don't make time for holy rollers
Mmm, there's only you I need
They do not make me complete

Time's gone inside out
Time get's distorted with
This intense gravity
I don't got time for holy rollers
But then they wash my feet
And I won't be their soldier
There's intense gravity
Yeah, there's intense gravity
I'm just your satellite
I'm just your satellite
Ooh, and I know that time's gone inside out
And now it's only like we told you
Mmm, oh then they wash my feet
They do not make me complete
Break out a character for me
Time keeps on going when
We got nothing else to give
We got nothing else to give
Ooh, cause time's gone inside out
I don't make time for holy rollers
Mmm, there's only you I need
They do not make me complete

I first heard this song in 2015 at a bar when I took this girl on a date. Not many people were there and it was just us together at the counter. This song is so beautiful and I fell madly in love with her. 5.6 years later I married her just two weeks ago!
Each time I hear this song it influences me to reflect on our journey together and where we started!

There have been very few times in my life where music couldnât pull me out of my depression. Recently Iâve been going through bouts of PPD and it feels like even music has lost its glimmer. I donât know why but for some reason this is the first song Iâve heard in the last 6 months that has made me feel alive again. Thank you Spoon for helping me rediscover my love of music. â¤

One of my friends who just passed played this song one day when we were hotboxing back in college. This song will always remind me of her. She was a beautiful soul.
