Two Wuv is a song by Andrew Horowitz, though Zubin Sedghi sings it in both the demo and studio versions.

The music video for Two Wuv is the 6th episode of Tally Hall's Internet Show.

History

The song first showed up on Welcome To Tally Hall EP, with a completely different bridge. This bridge featured Andrew and Zubin talking about what they would do to impress the twins. This song was later re-released on Complete Demos, unchanged. While recording the studio version for Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum in 2005, many different phone call edits were attempted. These can be heard on Admittedly Incomplete Demos.

When it was re-recorded and re-released in 2008, the buzzing sound during “you dressed up like a bee” was removed for unknown reasons.

Song Meaning

Two Wuv is about a person who becomes obsessed with famous twins Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, going as far as planning to stalk them. Eventually it escalates to where the person gets one twin's (presumably Mary-Kate's) phone number and has a unsuccessful phone call with her.

Live Performances

During the summer of 2006 while supporting Puffy AmiYumi, they would change part of the chorus during the outro to "Puffy AmiYumi I hope you understand that I love you a lot and I wanna be your man". This can be heard on a recording of Tally Hall's performance at St. Andrew's Hall on the 18th of July.[1]

Trivia

  • A rough mix of the song exists without the phone call bridge and with different guitars.[2]
  • The title seems to be a play on the words "true love". The use of the word "two" also works because there are two Olsens.
  • Andrew has stated that he wishes that he scrapped the song[3]


Lyrics

I have this little thing
It's probably just a fling
There's two girls I like a lot
I think they're really hot

But I'm not sure if they know
How my love began to grow
It took a lot of time
Right now it's solely mine

Today
I drew a mural of
The things I'd like to love
And where my heart resides
Is with two girls with great eyes

If they just give me a chance
I'd show them what they want
And teach them what they've got
I'd tickle each and every one of their fancies
And I'd take the key to my heart and open it
And let the love shine through

Mary-Kate and Ashley
I hope you understand
That I love you a lot
And I wanna be your man
And I think
That it'd be totally cool
If I hung around your apartments
And enrolled in your school

Mary-Kate
I saw you on TV
You dressed up like a bee
Reminds me of the time
How it's gone and it's gone and it's gone
It's sadness every day that passes without you
And I really wanna really wanna really wanna
Hold you both tight
And tell you you're mine
But instead I sing

Mary-Kate and Ashley
I hope you understand
That I love you a lot
And I wanna be your man
And I think
That it'd be totally cool
If I hung around your apartments
And enrolled in your school

*Ringing*
Olsen twin:
Hello?
Zubin:
Hello?
Olsen twin:
Hello?
Zubin:
Hey, I'm calling from Tally Hall...
Olsen twin:
Wait, say that again, slowly
Zubin:
What?
Hello?
Olsen twin:
Hello?
Zubin:
Hey, I'm calling from Tally Hall, and I just-- *Dial tone*

Mary-Kate and Ashley
I hope you understand
That I love you a lot
And I wanna be your man
And I think
That it'd be totally cool
If I hung around your apartments
And enrolled in your school

I know that life without
You and you
Would be sad
And I know it'd be bad

Mary-Kate and Ashley
I hope you understand
That your loveliness blossomed
And I wanna hold your hands
And I think
That it'd be totally cool
If I hung around your apartments
And enrolled in your school

Mary-Kate and Ashley
I hope you understand
That I love you a lot
And I wanna be your man
And I think
That it'd be totally cool
If I hung around your apartments
And enrolled in your school

Once you learn to love me
Life will be alright

Demo Lyrics

I have this little thing
It's probably just a fling
There's two girls I like a lot
I think they're really hot
But I'm not sure if they know
How my love began to grow
It took a lot of time
But right now it's solely mine

Today!
I drew a mural of
The things I'd like to love
And where my heart subsides
Is with two girls with great eyes
If they just gave me a chance
I'd show them what they want and teach 'em what they've got
I'd tickle each and every one of their fancies
And I'd take the key to my heart and open it, and let the love shine through

Mary-Kate and Ashley, I hope you understand
That I love you a lot and I wanna be your man
And I think that it'd be totally cool
If I hung around your apartments and enrolled in your school

Mary Kate!
I saw you on TV
You dressed up like a bee
Reminds me of the time
How it's gone and it's gone and it's gone
It's sadness every day that passes
Without you and I really wanna, really wanna
Really wanna hold you both tight
And tell you you're mine but instead I sing:

Mary-Kate and Ashley, I hope you understand
That I love you a lot and I wanna be your man
And I think that it'd be totally cool
If I hung around your apartments and enrolled in your school

Andrew:
Yeah, I could play them a song
Zubin:
There's probably hundreds of songs out there
Andrew:
Maybe I could play them two songs
Zubin:
Yeah?
Andrew:
Because there's two of them
Zubin:
Yeah

Mary-Kate and Ashley, I hope you understand
That I love you a lot and I wanna be your man
And I think that it'd be totally cool
If I hung around your apartments and enrolled in your school

I know that life without you and you would be sad
And I know it'd be bad

Mary-Kate and Ashley, I hope you understand
That your loveliness blossomed and I wanna hold your hands
And I think that it'd be totally cool
If I hung around your apartments and enrolled in your school
Mary-Kate and Ashley, I hope you understand
That I love you a lot and I wanna be your man
And I think that it'd be totally cool
If I hung around your apartments and enrolled in your school

Once you learn to love me, life will be alright
Once you learn to love me, life will be alright
Once you learn to love me, life will be alright
