1) Alternating influences from neo-psychedelia, noise pop, and Ennio Morricone film scores, Swell formed in San Francisco in 1989 when vocalist/guitarist David Freel and drummer Sean Kirkpatrick decided to record an album. Enlisting second guitarist John Dettman and bassist Monte Vallier, the band recorded a self-titled debut album and released it on their own Psycho Specific label in April 1990. After playing live for the first time in August -- a support slot for Mazzy Star at San Francisco's I-Beam -- Swell toured around California, and released a second album, Well?, by February 1992. Though Dettman left the band soon after, Freel and Kirkpatrick soldiered on, receiving an offer from Def American Records to give Well? a wide release one year after its first issue. Adding guitarist Tom Hays to replace Dettman, Swell began recording their third album. The LP, 41, was released by American in November 1993. Subsequent efforts include 1997's Too Many Days Without Thinking and 1998's For All the Beautiful People. Everybody Wants to Know appeared in spring 2001.
2) The Swell are a young prog-rock instrumental trio, based in Melbourne; incorporating media and live generated visuals to their live performances. source: bandcamp

Call Me
Swell Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's quite simple
I'll be there in a hurry,
Jack be quick Jack be nimble
Call me up when you feel the need to talk
When words aren't of the essence I'll soothe you with my presence,Β
A kiss here and there from head to toe
Just call me up when you want more
When you need me baby, yeah!
Just call me
Are you into this
If not we can do that 'cause when we get together,
It's like Lena Horne singin' Stormy Weather
We can get loose and kinky
Be my teddy bear, forget your every care,
The M-E-S-H-E-E-L and I aim to please your every little fantasy
You can be king for a day I'll be your queen let me treat you that way
Get loose work out
Work up a sweat till you fall out I'm in the mood for love
So we can play house I'll treat you like Julius Caesar
Best to bet that I'll treat you like a king, ring a ding ding
Just call me up 'cause it ain't nothing but the real thing
Dazin' glazin', so amazin',
Snugger than a bug in a rug
So let's get crazy
