While the story concerning the death of Maynard's mother is convincing when listening to this song, it doesn't ring true. This mistake was that of Rolling Stone Magazine (the staff of which later printed a retraction of the article) ; Maynard's mother is actually still among the living. Rather, I tend to agree with idiotic in that she remarried someone Maynard strongly disliked when he was 11, and that the song is about reuniting with his 11-yr-old self in order to come to terms with this stressful period in his past ; coming home, so to speak. |

I'm not going to debate the true meaning/background of this song one way or another. I say the song's awesome no matter whether it was about the civil war or events in jesus' life, and therefore it doesn't particularly matter of what I happen to feel is the more likely. It's about how it speaks to each individual. LIGHTEN UP EVERONE and just enjoy the music!!! |
