Shuffle Song Of The Day (5/4/23): “Dig” By Incubus

“Dig” is a song by the alternative rock band Incubus, and it appeared as the second single on their sixth studio album, Light Grenades, which was released in 2006

Incubus_-_Light_Grenades

Light Grenades reached Number 1 during the week it was released, becoming the band’s first ever number one album, but then disaster struck. The album then experienced a record breaking drop, as it fell to number 37 the following week. The record has since been broken, but it remains the 3rd largest week-to-week drop in album sales ever. Very unfair, in my opinion, because I like this album a lot

I know it’s not what the album title means, but I think we can all agree that light grenades are much better than heavier ones. Trying to throw heavy grenades sounds like a good way to blow yourself into pieces, and nobody wants that

Anyway, back to the song. Incubus has a lot of great songs that received a decent amount of radio play in the 2000’s, but this is probably my favorite of theirs. In typical Incubus fashion, the song has great lyrics accompanied with great guitar work, and the music video gets a little cartoony and trippy as well, for an added bonus

Personally, I prefer an incubus over a succubus, and I’m sure most guys can agree with me on that because we’ve all lost a friend or two to a succubus over years. If one of your friends is pussy whipped by a succubus, do them a favor and stage an intervention before it’s too late and she sinks her claws into him and convinces him to marry her

LYRICS
We all have a weaknessBut some of ours are easy to identifyLook me in the eyeAnd ask for forgivenessWe’ll make a pact to never speak that word againYes, you are my friend
We all have something that digs at usAt least we dig each otherSo when weakness turns my ego upI know you’ll count on the me from yesterday
If I turn into anotherDig me up from under what is coveringThe better part of meSing this songRemind me that we’ll always have each otherWhen everything else is gone, oh
We all have a sicknessThat cleverly attaches and multipliesNo matter how we try
We all have someone that digs at usAt least we dig each otherSo when sickness turns my ego upI know you’ll act as a clever medicine
If I turn into anotherDig me up from under what is coveringThe better part of meSing this songRemind me that we’ll always have each otherWhen everything else is gone
Oh, each otherWhen everything else is gone
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ohOh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
If I turn into anotherDig me up from under what is coveringThe better part of meSing this songRemind me that we’ll always have each otherWhen everything else is gone
Oh, each other (sing this song)When everything else is goneOh, each otherWhen everything else is gone
