This song started as a mistake, quotes Roger Waters. I was working on some lyrics and wrote down, "breathe, breathe in the air, don't be afraid to care" and was about to toss it in the trash and Syd Barrett came over and said, thats a great song, thats what a song is, just write. |

I was watching this video and the acrobat in the red jumpsuit is by a sign that reads "Musee d'...syndicat d' initiative" which means tourist office. I thought this video was shot in ireland, but seems to be by some french museum, any guesses ? |

Yeah, I agree. A friend who needs a friend so he takes him out to have a good time, the friends dies.
All seriousness aside, could it be about a bachelors party and the friend is getting married?
HA-ha. |

| Rush – Subdivisions Lyrics
| 20 years ago
|
This song seems to be about growing up in suburbia, all houses the same, streets the same, and how it sucks compared to growing up in the countryside. It also goes into whats cool and what isn't, peer pressures,and also how you don't have to be a subdivision like homes, be an artist, or a painter, or whatever you want.
"Opinions all provided
The future pre-decided "
It can also be looked at how media and the press try to push the norm, and stuff like 60's shows daddy knows best, and my three sons, |

Ian lived on 7 nations indian tribal land for a few years after school before returning to England. There are alot of native american references in his music. This song is actually about sex, but makes it sound like RAIN> |

I don't think so, although I've never asked Ian. Its a bout a guy who walks down the street with a really hot chick and other guys are looking at her lustfully ( and the heads that turn, make my back burn) |

| U2 – One Tree Hill Lyrics
| 20 years ago
|
There is the full story on this written up elsewhere on the web, but is basically about the death of bonos friend who was from new zealand, and a Maori native I beleive. ONE TREE HILL is a place in NEw Zealand where the Maori believe the gods made life like the garden of eden. There are other references to Jara, but the song starts :We turn away to face the cold, enduring chill" that is poetry for death, we all die. "And when its raining, raining hard..." his friend died on a rainy night.
The backside of joshua tree blows me away with a bottle of wine and my headset on. I think Vertigo is superficial POP music compared to this. |
