Default What do these lyrics mean?

Some nights I lose the feeling
and some nights i lose control
some nights i just lose it all when i watch you dance and the thunder rolls

No doubt there are different interpretations of it but mine is:

Some nights I lose the feeling
He's got no circulation in his legs anymore

and some nights i lose control
He's lost that much circulation that he's started to convulse and has spasms in his legs

some nights i just lose it all when i watch you dance and the thunder rolls
That's it he's in full blown seizure because this really big woman is sat on top of him doing the rhumba and her belly is going up and down with such force that the rolls of fat sounds like train (hence the thunder)

I could be wrong

Did you see Bo Selecta's singing interview?

Do you remember Meat's answer to Bo's 'What gossip can you tell me about what's going on backstage?'

The same here.

I never think it's a good idea to take a couple of lines of lyrics in isolation and try to analyse what they mean. You need to look at them in the context of the song as a whole.

AFL is a very powerful love song. He loves her and he'd do anything for her. He's experiencing all the crazy feelings you get when you're in love. His emotions are all over the place. Extreme highs, extreme lows, passion, uncertainty, fear etc. So it's no wonder that some nights he loses the feeling and some nights he loses control. Some nights he's even praying to the god of sex and drums and rock and roll forgawdssakes.

Meat answered singing : "I'm trying to get laid!".

I meant it's about obsession.

Obsession of sex. It might reconcile everyone.

Patricia, did you miss out the word "love" by mistake

No seriously, I don't agree that the theme of the song can possibly be summarised without including that word.

But maybe I'm just an old romantic

No, ofcourse its the ultimate love song, but he puts a lot of humor in it too.
