eno himself has stated that the title comes from the fact that the guitar sounds like a tuned jet engine, something he referred to as 'warm jet guitar'. however i have heard that the lyrics themselves describe urination
@dayvenkirq that's the case with steely dan. long ago someone started a rumor that they were named after a fictional dildo, which grew so pervasive that many today accept it as the official story. even their wikipedia page states that is the source of their name
Thank you for the post...the music is what matters...its nice to background information but all in all it's how the tune makes you feel..and if it's happiness there should not be quibbling or name calling...just happiness for the beauty the music created for the moment...and thanks to the man who created it and again for the posting
Calm down, everyone. If you look at the cover of the album, which I bought when it was first released on vinyl, you will see in the small picture that the girl is bending over & urinating. (It is the framed one in front of Eno, for those who have trouble seeing) This is the warm jet !
Also, ragging someone out for their race is just not cool. Nor is having a go back when you cannot do so without swearing. Rise above it. Just rise above it.
Think this song is absolutely beautiful. Bored Italian shop assistant was playing it in a tea shop in London- asked him 'Who the hell is this song by? I'm entranced!' Haven't had the chance to buy album yet. Wow. . .my ears are smiling!
@tigereyes258 The whole album is great, just sometimes You need to listen to it a few times for the music to really sink in. But that's usually a good way to have things, I'd rather spend time getting into something than liking it right off then getting tired of it just as fast.

@newfuckingwave They better NOT describe urination :D lol. It must be some kind of rumor spread by some dildo who doesn't like this artist.

@robbiemo013 Actually there are lots of "warm jets" on the cover, tea pot, camels, hair dryer etc.

@robbiemo013 That's weird, cause girls don't bend over to urinate.

i meant to point out the possibility of it being a double entendre i.e. Eno using common slang as tittle that takes on litteral meaning aurally.
You are much worse than an idiot for using racial epthet
