So, I really don’t know what “Hummer” is about, given that the only words from the early part I know is “when I woke up from that sleep / I was happier that I’d ever been” and that’s probably only because he he screams it.\"\n\nhttps://medialoper.com/certain-songs-2271-the-smashing-pumpkins-hummer/", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
