| Emily Haines & the Soft Skeleton – Mostly Waving Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
i didnt know that this song was about her father's death but it makes sense... i recently read an essay by Alice Walker entitled "Am I Blue?" the horses name is Blue and he falls in love with another horse who the speaker refers to as "brown" anyways brown is taken away from blue and the speaker notices that there is a feeling sadness in blue's eyes and she finds out that brown was taken away from blue. so maybe emily is "blue" and her father like "brown" was taken away and there is this natural sense of loss emily feels? i dont know maybe its a bit of stretch? but its possible... anyway its a beautiful song and i like how emilys songs are so much more than obvious. |
