"Taste You" (French "Te Goûter") is the third and final single from Melissa Auf der Maur's self-titled solo debut. Like the album's previous single, it failed to chart in the U.S. Due to a successful UK tour, the song received a moderate amount of airplay and peaked at number 51. The song features guest vocals from Mark Lanegan, formerly of the bands Screaming Trees and Queens of the Stone Age.

It exists in French and English versions. The French version is distributed standard on the album in some countries (France), and as a hidden track at the end of the US version of the album.

Lyrics[edit | edit source]

Oh my love, oh my love
I can't hear you my love
Tell me where have you gone?

Oh my love, oh my love
I can't taste you my love
Tell me what have I done?

Plug it in, so I can digest you
I will taste you

Far away, far away
I can't feel you today
I need healing my love

Appetite running fast
Following my gut
Turning up every rock

You're disappearing my love
I need louder than this
Please fill me up

Goof tidings I bring
To you and your sins
I'll forgive

Come to me
Plug it in, so I can digest you
I will taste you (Ooh ooh)
My appetite in that hole
Tempt you with it now
I will taste you (Ooh ooh)

Please shake me and tug
I need shaking my love
Can't you be the one?

I can't fake it my love
I need filling come on
I need it louder than bombs

Come to me
Plug it in, so I can digest you
I will taste you (Ooh ooh)
My appetite in that hole
Tempt you with it now
I will taste you (Ooh ooh)

Feel that movement my love?
Pulling up from above
Are you listening love?

My emptiness in a way
Is tempting
Guiding you from my gut
I will taste you, I've got a big mouth, Oh my love
