![]() Emoh (2005) [ larger cover art ] |
Hit me like a kick to a thickening gut
The beat has done beaten me up
No one's gonna lift me out of this rut
The groove has done ground me to dust
I'm knocking on the wrong cocoon
Spun another web of lies
And then you break through
And dry before my eyes
Take me with you
Where you hide tonight
Did you feel the beat in a fetal curl?
Could you be original, caterpillar girl
Crawling up the vine
Splitting your spine
Flowing through the motions
Leave your shell behind
And then you break through
And dry before my eyes
Take me with you
Where you hide tonight
Away...
Look out
The birds like me
They want you now
They want you now
Caterpillar Girl
And then you break through
And dry before my eyes
Take me with you
Where you hide tonight

| onelittlemoose (Mooseville, Canada) | Posted: May 15, 2012 - 14:27 Just a teeny hint of Collective Soul I hear. Not bad. |
| ick (The 619) | Posted: Jan 20, 2011 - 06:59 This one's definitely a grower. The more I hear it the better it gets and it was already very good. |
| purplespider (Portland, OR) | Posted: Sep 23, 2010 - 11:28 I saw "Caterpillar Girl" and expected The Cure. Disappointment. |

Even the album name makes me ready for this "Emo" kick to finally end so we can go back to rock and roll. Lou Barlow's been around since the 1980's, hardly a "newer" act, and the generic label "emo" doesn't really mean much unless you consider everything that's not Led Zeppelin or Z.Z. Top to be "emo". |

You need more time on target my friend, before you can lump all those bands together. . . ![]() |

| window (Richmond, VA) | Posted: Feb 05, 2010 - 08:01 Underrated song, IMHO. I can't explain why I feel that way, though. Guess it just syncs up with the right receptors! |

| window (Richmond, VA) | Posted: Aug 25, 2008 - 07:09 This song rocks and deserves much greater airtime! Thanks for clueing me in on the genius of Lou. |
| NHMick (The tiniest seacoast in the Union) | Posted: May 11, 2007 - 10:41 Wow, from the posted comments it seems like this song has not been played on RP since August 2005. Too bad, because I really like this tune, and I'm surprised it hasn't had more play in nearly 2 years! |
| MadPercolator | Posted: May 11, 2007 - 10:38 My absolute all time favorite of all the Barlow, Sebadoh, Folk Implosion stuff! He's doing Dino Jr. stuff again now, I hear. |

Indeed, stubbsz. I tried uploading some Bob and Sugar and got 'Sorry' to both. P'raps I'll try again. Likeable tune. |

8. But Bob doesn't get much play on RP. Mores the Pity. |
| skindy (Albany, NY) | Posted: Mar 08, 2005 - 09:53 Ah, I knew it - the unmistakable voice of Sebadoh! I'm liking this very much... |
| trekhead | Posted: Mar 08, 2005 - 09:49 Almost a Bob Mould thing going on. 8. |
| hannibal812 (Chicago) | Posted: Feb 25, 2005 - 13:15 Picked up the album through RP site. Awesome stuff. Barlow has definitely mellowed with age, but he's a great song writer. Highly recommended. |

| asparklinggirl (chicago) | Posted: Feb 15, 2005 - 09:23 this isn't bad, i just can't seem to shake or get over the cure's song reference! <-( |
