Not that they don’t have their influences (Think Patti Smith and Wolfman Jack with a dash of Fleetwood Mac) but their live show is more reminiscent of a religious cult.

From the howling voodoo high priest Gideon Bensen to the Magdeline-esque passion of Isabella Manfredi, the voices in this band stir up a religious fervor that makes you want to drink the kool aid and wait for the spaceship. And after only one year together and the release of a self-titled EP, The Preatures are embarking on a project that flicks the finger to all expectation. Dubbed The 66 Project it sees the band in collaboration with local artists, filmmakers, and producer Tony Buchen (Tim Finn, WIM) to release free music until May 2011.

The band had started with the name; The Preachers, but to make it more original and not to make anyone confused with 60s American band named The Preachers, the band had announced on August 2nd 2012 that their new name would be The Preatures.

Is This How You Feel?
The Preatures Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Twilight been alright
I'm gonna see you again tonight
And now you got me started
I'm on shaky right tonight
Then I see you
I won't go where the beach is warm
And I won't get stung and I won't get storm I
This all yours

Baby, is this how you feel?
I wanna know wanna know
Is this how you feel?

She pushed that on this two
The one who stakes
The one who's leaving you
I could keep on the same mistakes
Or I could make a new
Dancing out my feet now
There's a little to me
But I don't know what
I'm too young to quit now
I'm too young to quit
But I can clean
Does it feel for you
Like it's real for me
I've been walking further
Just looking for ya, babe

Is this how you feel?
I wanna know wanna know
Is this how you feel?

And I wanna wanna, wanna, wanna
Wanna, wanna, wanna, wanna
Wanna, wanna, wanna, wanna
Wanna, wanna, wanna, wanna
Know

I move up, let's call a week
And down to the heaven
And never felt
Baby is this how you feel?
I wanna know wanna know
Is this how you feel?
I wanna know wanna know
Is this how you feel?
I wanna know wanna know
Is this how you feel?

I wanna know wanna know
Is this how you feel, babe?
Is this how you feel?
Is this how you feel, baby?
Is this how you feel?
Is this how you feel, baby?
Is this how you feel?
Is this how you feel, baby?
Is this how you feel?
Is this how you feel, baby?
Is this how you feel?
Is this how you feel, baby?

Is this how you feel?
Is this how you feel, baby?

Line by Line Meaning

Twilight been alright
The evening has been good so far

I'm gonna see you again tonight
I'm going to see you again tonight

And now you got me started
I'm now excited

I'm on shaky right tonight
I'm feeling nervous tonight

Then I see you
When I see you

I won't go where the beach is warm
I won't go to where everything is comfortable

And I won't get stung and I won't get storm I
I won't take any risks

This all yours
This is all yours

Baby, is this how you feel?
Do you feel the same way, baby?

She pushed that on this two
She chose between two people

The one who stakes
The one who takes risks

The one who's leaving you
The one who's leaving you behind

I could keep on the same mistakes
I could keep repeating the same mistakes

Or I could make a new
Or I could try something new

Dancing out my feet now
Dancing without worrying

There's a little to me
There's only a little bit of me

But I don't know what
But I don't know what to do next

I'm too young to quit now
I'm still too young to give up

But I can clean
But I can make it better

Does it feel for you
Does it feel the same for you

Like it's real for me
Like it's real for me

I've been walking further
I've been walking further away

Just looking for ya, babe
Just looking for you, baby

And I wanna wanna, wanna, wanna
And I want to, want to, want to

Wanna, wanna, wanna, wanna
Want to, want to, want to, want to

Know
I want to know

I move up, let's call a week
I moved on, let's say it's been a week

And down to the heaven
And down to heaven

And never felt
And never felt before

I wanna know wanna know
I want to know
