| Dave Matthews Band – Jimi Thing Lyrics | 12 years ago |

I disagree with the interpretations that would suggest that the song is about God, God's grace, heaven and hell, mortality and divinity, etc. Instead, I think, that it's simply a reflection on the human emotion of depression and the desire to find a remedy. I suppose the question we all want answered is what the hell is a "Jimi Thing". It's the remedy. Beyond that, I don't think that the song needs to be dissected and analyzed to death. There's really no need to get that deep with contrived metaphors, analogies and symbolism. It can be what you want it to mean. Chill. Right? I think that some of the stripped down live versions with Tim Reynolds are absolutely stellar. Breathtakingly BEAUTIFUL. |
