Let S Get It On Meaning
Originally written by 1950s one hit wonder ed townsend for your love in 1958 the song originally addressed the author s desire to get on with life after beating alcoholism.
Let s get it on meaning. 1 a statement akin to showing excitement in anticipation of an upcoming event or action 2 an energetic call to action. My interpretation this song is clearly about the rigors of viking life in eighteenth century scandinavia. Let s fucking get it we get it other derivations. A euphemism for sex popularized by marvin gaye in his classic let s get it on i ve been really tryin baby tryin to hold back these feelings for so long and if you feel like i feel baby come on oh come on let s get it on.
Getting it on was viking slang for the ritual sacrificing of a goat in reverence to the norse god odin. For example if you re ready to start rehearsing let s get it on. Esketit let s fucking go let s do this. Marvin gaye completely changed the lyrics and meaning to the song after meeting janis hunter the woman who would become his second wife.
Nath yes let s get it on does mean let s have sex.
