@[kristaps_k:50266] Really like that interpretation. If I may add, I have always thought that much of the lyrics are about a journey through oneself, an inner search; the subject is really, really depressed, something terrible happened to him in the past that left him utterly uninspired, without any glimpse of hope. The chorus “…it’s raining, raining…” it’s, what I interpret as a metaphor about his loss, his misfortune. Anyway, I love how the song ends, I have always felt that the instrumental closing section gives your a tiny ray of light, there’s hope! Even after this person goes to the extreme of sensing that Heaven won’t offer deliverance and his expectations will be clearly unmatched. Somehow, there is a sense of relief. A classic song, a much interesting an underrated album! Credit goes to Daily Doug, for his inspiring and in depth review of this particular song! |
