Think I Need It Too
Echo And The Bunnymen · The Fountain [2009]
How to forget how to be true
Covered myself in nothing
Don't touch me and i won't touch you
Tryin' to remember something
Why am I here and who are you?
You must admit something
Animals came in two by two
Whatever you want
Whatever you need
Whatever you want
Whatever you need
I think I need it too
I think I need it too
I think I need it too
Just as I thought I'm thinking
How can I change when I don't want to
Kept getting caught
Kept drinking
How can I blame what I got to
Putting the wheels in motion
Autopilot I can't drive
Covered in chalomine lotion
Scratching my ?? bee stung
Whatever you want
Whatever you need
Whatever you want
Whatever you need
I think I need it too
I think I need it too
I think I need it too
Whatever you want
Whatever you need
Whatever you want
Whatever you need
Whatever you want
Whatever you need
Whatever you want
Whatever you need
I think I need it too
I think I need it too
I think I need it too
Think I Need It Too
Echo and the Bunnymen's 'Think I Need It Too' stands as a defining track from their 2009 album The Fountain, capturing the band's late-period evolution into a more stripped-down, atmospheric sound. Released during a time when the group was refining their signature blend of post-punk energy and melodic sensibility, the song features a haunting vocal performance by Ian McCulloch that underscores themes of emotional dependency and introspection. The recording exemplifies the band's shift away from their earlier maximalist approach toward a more intimate and textured style, utilizing sparse instrumentation to heighten the song's melancholic resonance. As part of their broader discography, this track remains a poignant example of their ability to craft memorable, emotionally charged moments that resonate within the alternative rock genre.
