| Devin Townsend – Deadhead Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
I agree with most interpretations relating this song with his relationship to his girlfriend/wife. However, the first time I listened to it, I had another impression. I thought this song was talking about Devin's relations to drugs and drug addiction. His "sun goddes" is the drug he uses and the effects it causes on him. It feels like he uses drugs to escape from himself, but he can't forget about that and he wants to be saved. He feels a greater pain when he is under the effect of drugs, and he wants to be redeemed in some ways through this pain. Devin is a genious, people. |

This song reminds me a lot of Warlord Chronicles, by Bernard Cornwell. It seems to be talking about Derfel, the main character. *SPOILERS AHEAD* In the end, lots of his friends dies, and others leave with a boat heading to an island, away from him, and he stays in Britain living with a monk, being oath-bound with him. And Taliesin, if I recall corectly, is a bard that played an important role in these Chronicles, and he and Derfel get to be friends. And I think that, when the songs mentions the grail, it doesn't especifically means the Holy Grail, but Arthur's objective of achieving peace. |

This is a really great song, and Raist is an awsome kick-assing character! I hope one day BG can do a song about Drizzt Do'Urden, another beloved character in fantasy books (at least by me ^_^), only this supreme group could bring life to the dark elf in a song :D |

Oh, one more thing I noticed today when listening to this song... When he says 'I fly in time' it remembers me of Caramon and Tas going back in time in dragonlance legends to save Raistlin's soul...another Dragonlance reference ^^ |

I also can relate this song to Dragonlance...mostly, about Fizban: when the old man will never come back remember his words and his songs And we see the raven's flying in the distance but no wizard's singing his song Fizban was believed to have died in the end of the first chronicles' book when saving Tas from a fall. The last candle will burn there's hope for everyone when the last candle burns high When all hope seems to be lost, Tanis and some others go and face the queen of darkness in the end of the third book in the chronicles, and there's a chapter called 'The Last Candle', where Riverwind and Goldmoon light a candle in a dark room at their departure. Only part i can't figure is the one about 'corrupted old gnome' that knows a lot and askes for sth to 'bring back the wizard', however Fizban comes back and visits, along with Tas, a gnomish city looking for some answers about the Dragon Orb... Dun know if I said sth wrong, long time I read the Dragonlance Books ^^' That's it :D |
