| Tori Amos – Past The Mission Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| this is exactly why i love a good forum - overall such great comments...sometimes on YouTube, I'll glance at comments under a music video and there are some really well thought out replies and then a lot of rubbish. I wish ALL comment sections were like this one is. I love that springhaze29 provided words straight from Tori (i didnt find that with a look on Google - i wish i had lexis-nexis) But i find the Mary Magdalene interpretation to be sooo spot on I can't hardly believe it wasn't something she intended. Maybe she drew upon multiple creative thoughts and they all co-exist. Like she did that one video the girls all in black going through the village (past the mission) and i totally couldn't reconcile that interpretation with anything else. I admit when we come up with meanings of our own, sometimes finding out what they meant can be a letdown if it doesn't fit. But then, i ask, why else do we go to song meanings and want to understand a better explication of our favorite songs. Like modern poetry. | |
