Grinding is an unidentified darkwave/industrial song taken from a homemade mixtape.
Search History[]
This song, along with Roses And Rainbows, was posted to YouTube on May 2nd, 2011, by user fazstp over footage of the movie Repulsion. The description says:
“I was hoping someone could tell me the name of this band/ track. I found it on the end of an old cassette I was digitizing. I think it was a late eighties- early nineties vinyl EP but can't recall the name of the band.”
In 2022, the OP replied to a comment in the video asking about the cassette’s origin, and they said it was a homemade mixtape, and that this song and Roses And Rainbows were the only unlisted tracks.
On June 17th, 2023, user MistaEgg asked the OP about the other songs on the tape, and they said the hard drive containing all their digitized music died, and they didn’t have the motivation to re-digitize it.

Yeah, ??hey girl/baby/angel??
Give me back my soul
Yeah, hey, girl
Give me, give me back my soul
??You guys are?? keeping on crying
I can't cope anymore
Yeah they're keeping on crying
I just can't cope anymore
So once ??your mouth/amount?? starts grinding
Yeah the mouth starts grinding
Oh, once your mouth starts grinding in my head
I tell you, I'm alive
Grinding, I'm grinding, I'm grinding, I'm grinding
Can't you see
I'm grinding, I'm grinding, I'm grinding, I'm grinding
Can't you see
I'm grinding, I'm grinding, I'm grinding, I'm grinding

Can't you, ow!
[Guitar solo]
Well, hey, girl

Mouth starts grinding
Mouth starts grinding in my head
Mouth starts grinding
