Something in "I'm Back"

[dR3]

In the song he says:

"you hear this finger, oh it's upside down
here, let me turn this motherfucker up right now"


Wouldn't it be better if he said "you see this finger", or is he doing the hear/turn up wordplay here?

I didn't even realize that before

Wow, never noticed the wordplay before. That's awesome.

Same. Amazing how you keep discovering more and more of these things many years later.

I'll confess I never knew what this line meant and still don't.

Where I live, it's fairly common to make a middle finger upside down in a joking manner and ask someone "Can you hear this?". Then go "Well, let me turn it up for you" as you turn your hand the right way in the motion of a volume knob, which is what he was aiming for here.

You understand it better if you watch him perform it here. Plus this performance was awesome anyways
