"Will I know when it's finally done?" With any luck, nope. You'll hallucinate eternity while you die, as your pineal gland releases crazy amounts of DMT. This has all only been hypothesized, but it's a plausible explanation for near-death experiences. |

Elliott's cover is amazing. It's almost as if he felt the song more than John did. TheBeatles123, I love the Beatles as much as anyone, but Elliott Smith was a better musician than any of them in my opinion. He could have been a BIG time musician if he wanted, but he preferred to stay as low key as possible. He died in 2003, from a stab wound. They're not sure if it was suicide or murder. His guitar work was amazing, and he wrote INCREDIBLE lyrics. You should really check him out. He sounds quite similar to the Beatles. After all, the Beatles were his biggest and earliest influence. |

| Modest Mouse – Dashboard Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| I don't think Epic had anything to do with this song sounding the way it does. I would say it's more Isaac's experimental side. They used synths. That's not something I think Epic would push down their throat. The lyrics certainly aren't Isaac's best, but they're better than 90% of what's out there. | |
| Ugly Casanova – Barnacles Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| Dude that Edgar Graham stuff was just a bunch of bullshit Isaac made up. I think it had something to do with falling back on Ugly Casanova if Modest Mouse ever fell through or Epic fucked shit up. | |

tarnal: "Granted we can't hunt and/or drive 4 wheelers in most of our backyards but I think we have a few other things that might take up our time that doesn't involve attacking/killing animals and ripping up our yards. " Like what? Walk through central park and try and understand the goofy accents of the strangers surrouding you in the wonderful 'nature'? Perhaps go to a $9 movie? We have $1 movie theaters in Iowa yet. Maybe attend a professional athletic event swith overpriced tickets? I'll be happy to go to college events much cheaper. Wow with all there is to do in New York, where do you get the money? Do you work a wonderful part time job like sweating your ass off in a restaraunt that pays you minimum? In Iowa you can make detassel for 2 weeks of the entire year and make $1500 at the age of 14. I've visited to the bigger cities like Minneapolis, Chicago, St. Louis, Kansas City, the midwest and Houston and Dallas in the south. I lived in Omaha for awhile (it's honestly the best city of the one's I've listed in my opinion). Every time I've missed Iowa within days and left with no money from doing "other things that might take up our time that doesn't involve attacking/killing animals and ripping up our yards". I'm not a big fan of public transit. Too crowded. |

i hate that when people say they hate where they love because there's "Nothing to do!" fuck that I live in Iowa and I bet there's more to do in the country in Iowa than there is in New York City. Can NYC kids ride 4 wheelers and hunt in their back yards? Can they fish at a huge selection of large lakes within 45 minutes from their houses? Can they DRIVE? Can they get lost without being frightened? Can they talk to a complete stranger without having to worry about the guy being a weirdo? Oh and in Iowa we have restaraunts, libraries, movie theaters, and all that stuff "To do" that the big cities have. Maybe you just have to driver for half an hour. |

| Modest Mouse – 3rd Planet Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
I don't think it has much to do with sex... it's mentioned but only as an object and not as the entire theme of the song "Well, outside naked, shiverin' looking blue, from the cold sunlight that's reflected off the moon. Baby cum angels fly around you reminding you we used to be three and not just two. And that's how the world began. And that's how the world will end." ^According to the Bible, God created us in his image. There would have been 3 of 'us'(Adam, Eve, and God). When Adam and Eve sinned they seperated themselves from God (and not just 2). The world began when God made Adam and Eve mortal for sinning. The world will end when God accepts us all into Heaven. "A 3rd had just been made and we were swimming in the water didn't know then was it a son was it a daughter. When it occurred to me that the animals are swimming around in the water in the oceans in our bodies and another had been found another ocean on the planet given that our blood is just like the Atlantic." To me this is an atheists view. It seems to demonstrate evolution. How we rose up from swimming in the water with the animals to be the superior animals we are. When it occured to the author that the animals were swimming in his genes and it is he that gives life and not the God he doesn't believe in. "Well, the universe is shaped exactly like the earth if you go straight long enough you'll end up where you were. And the universe is shaped exactly like the earth if you go straight long enough you'll end up where you were. The universe is shaped exactly like the earth." This seems to be an agnostic viewpoint. This agnostic person fears what 'everything' and 'eternity' mean. The believe that things are circular because nothing in this world keeps going except a circle. The agnostic person doesn't see a beginning or an end. Thats what that part of the song means to me. I'm still attempting to dechiper the rest for myself. |
