Biography

American alternative rock band formed in 1994 and based in Chicago, Illinois. Wilco is a sextet formed by singer-songwriter and guitarist Jeff Tweedy. The band’s current lineup solidified in 2004 when guitarist Nels Cline and guitarist/keyboardist Patrick Sansone joined Tweedy, founding bassist John Stirratt, drummer Glenn Kotche and keyboardist Mikael Jorgensen. Wilco’s brand of classic roots rock incorporates folk, pop and genre-spanning experimentalism. The band’s catalog includes 2002’s Yankee Hotel Foxtrot (named one of the 500 greatest albums of all time by Rolling Stone), 2005’s Grammy award-winning A Ghost is Born, the Grammy-nominated Wilco (The Album) and The Whole Love and more. NPR has called Wilco “the best rock band in America” and the band has been heralded by the Los Angeles Times as “an amazing machine whose six players seem more at one with their music than any rock group working today.” The Wilco catalog includes Mermaid Avenue Volumes 1, 2 and 3, which, in collaboration with British folk singer Billy Bragg, sets original music to song lyrics by the iconic Woody Guthrie.

LYRICS

How can you tell
You're under a spell
You're compromised
You're miles away
Slow
How can you know
When you're aiming low
There's nothing in your heart
Don't feel it in your soul
No standing O O O

Maybe you've noticed I'm ashamed
Of anything that I've done
Maybe you've noticed that I'm not the same
As almost anyone

Why can't you see
You look funny to me
You trip and fall
I catch it all
O

How can you know
When you're aiming low
You're curling up
You're crawling now
No standing O O O

Maybe you're saying no this time
Dance right around my bones
It's o.k. I'll be fine
I won't follow you home

Instead I turn my mood on a dime
I'm finally off my back
I come from a long, long line
I mope and I cry and attack
OW OW

How can you tell
You're under my spell
Compromised
Miles away
No standing O O O

Maybe you've noticed I'm not afraid
Of everything that I've done
Maybe you've noticed I'm not the same
As almost anyone

Instead turn my mood on a dime
I'm finally off of my back
I come from a long, long line
I mope and I cry and attack

How can you tell
How can you tell
