linclink Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 "Open Mind" for "The Whole Love" album springs to mind...but great list... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lammycat Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Don't You Honey Me...of which I seem to be one of the only/few people to like the song. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Magnetized Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 How about The Lonely 1? That's definitely love of a sort--a sort I can relate to. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ripthisjoint908 Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 How about The Lonely 1? That's definitely love of a sort--a sort I can relate to.Always felt Lonely 1 was about Westerberg. I have no proof. I don't know why I think that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Magnetized Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Always felt Lonely 1 was about Westerberg. I have no proof. I don't know why I think that.I've heard and read the same thing, but I also remember reading somewhere that Jeff explicitly said it wasn't about a particular person. Gold lame doesn't seem to fit with Paul Westerberg, so I tend to think of it in a more generalized way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gold lame doesn't seem to fit with Paul Westerberg, so I tend to think of it in a more generalized way.You actually read it somewhere? Thats cool to me, because I developed the theory on my own one day. Glad to see I'm not alone on that. Yeah some aspects don't fit him. I guess we aren't entirely sure what/who its about. I would like to trust Jeff's word but sometimes he pulls a Dylan and leads people in a different direction just because he knows he can haha. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uncool2pillow Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Funny the Westerberg connection. At a show once, I thought it was about how I view(ed) Bob Mould. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Queen Amaranthine Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Far, Far Away...most romantic Wilco song! From AGIB, how about Muzzle of Bees? I'm assuming you got my messageOn your machineI'm assuming you love meAnd you know what that meansSun gets passed, sea to seaSilently, and back to meWith the breeze blown throughPushed up above the leaves With the breeze blown throughMy head upon your kneeHalf of it's you, half is meHalf of it's you, half is me Quote Link to post Share on other sites
smells like flowers Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 I think the list of Wilco songs not about love would be much shorter than the list of the ones that are! But I'm too lazy to do it.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
remphish1 Posted February 21, 2013 Author Share Posted February 21, 2013 Ahh yea some ones I missed for sure...I agree with Open Mind...didn't think of Muzzle. Pieholden Sure... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
