Wikipedia article
"'Here in Your Bedroom'" is a song by the American punk rock band Goldfinger. It was the lead single from their self-titled debut studio album in 1996, released on Mojo Records. The song is based on the band's frontman, John Feldmann, and a brief relationship he had with a woman. The song was the band's biggest chart success, peaking at number five on 'Billboard' Modern Rock Tracks in the United States. It also peaked at number 11 on 'RPM' Alternative 30 in Canada, and at number 47 on 'Billboard' Hot 100 Airplay chart.
Background
"Here in Your Bedroom" was based on Goldfinger frontman John Feldmann's personal experiences. He was working at a store selling shoes, and he had a crush on a woman working in the dress department for over eight months. "'Here in Your Bedroom' is all about those wacky emotions that a sensitive guy like me gets at a time like that. When we were in her room, there was nothing else going on in the world but me and her," he told 'Billboard' when the song achieved success. He noted that the experience was beneficial as a songwriter, as he gained three new songs from it. They first got together on New Year's 1995:
In addition, Feldmann was inspired by his visiting sister, whom he had not seen in a year. As for the girl, she quickly broke up with Feldmann and moved to Texas. Upon the song's twentieth anniversary in 2016, Feldmann called it his favorite song on the band's self-titled debut album, 'Goldfinger'.
