A Perfect Circle · eMOTIVe [2004]
i need more, i need more.
gimme gimme gimme.
dont ask what for, dont ask what for.
sitting here like a loaded gun.
im waiting, to go off.
ive got, nothing to do but,
shoot my mouth off.
gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme,
i need more, i need more.
gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme,
dont ask what for, dont ask what for.
i know the worlds got problems,
ive got problems of my own.
they aint the kind that can be,
solved with an atom bomb.
gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme,
i need more, i need more.
gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme,
dont ask what for, dont ask what for.
you know i gotta go out,
get something for my head.
if i keep on doing this,
im gonna end up dead.
gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme,
i need more, i need more.
gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme,
dont ask what for, dont ask what for.
gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme,
i need more, i need more.
gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme,
dont ask what for, dont ask what for.
Gimme, Gimme, Gimme
Released on the 2004 album eMOTIVe, this track by A Perfect Circle exemplifies the band's signature blend of progressive metal and alternative rock. The song features the distinctive vocal style of vocalist Joey Belluso, characterized by a mix of melodic singing and aggressive shouting that became a hallmark of the group's sound during this era. Musically, it incorporates complex time signatures and heavy guitar riffs typical of the nu-metal and post-grunge movements of the mid-2000s. As part of their discography following the success of their debut, eMOTIVe solidified the band's reputation for high-energy live performances and intricate songwriting structures. The recording stands as a key example of the band's ability to merge technical proficiency with emotional intensity, influencing a generation of metalcore and alternative acts that sought to push the boundaries of traditional rock instrumentation.
