Nineties Revisited: If I Could Talk


Original video located here. Accessed 1st June 2021

Song title: If I Could Talk

Artist: The Lemonheads

Year: 1996

Why I like this song:

One of the most cheerful songs about drugs ever made. 
Yeah, we may get suckered in the winning guitar riff and the (seemingly) nonsensical words but one could make the argument that the nature of this song leaves it open for interpretation.
And to that end this song did indeed speak to me: Going by the chorus, one would think this is a song about the need for communication - which in turn resonated with me as an autistic teen. 
That may not have been the intent but it floated my boat.
