| The band "Belle & Sebastian" did something similar to this is the song "A Space Boy Dream". Frankly that narrative style kind of creeps me out, both are pretty beautiful pieces though. | |
| The Clientele – Impossible Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
"Roland to the dark tower came" is most likely a reference to Browning's famous poem "Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came" rather than King's "The Dark Tower" or Shakespeare's King Lear. The character Roland is.. well, really cynical and disillusioned for a knight on a quest. There's obstacles but a lot of them are due to Roland's depressed nature, and nothing is presented at the end that satisfies the struggle. Pretty consistent with the tones of their other works. Love the Clientele :) |
