This is definitely one of the most interesting songs and videos I have seen. If it weren't for the video I think the song would feel much longer and more pointless. But I love seeing the people acting it in the video, and the party part at the end. Also does the last verse with "The hairy arachnophobic" ever actually appear? because I didn't hear it in the video. |

Where is the first part of this song? There is some speaking for awhile before the first line and I can't find the lyrics anywhere. |

I love this song. Just another great song on the album Ocean Rain! I really like the lines:
You set my teeth on edge.
You think your invincible?
Never come out of the fridge!
C-c-c-cucumber,
C-c-c-cabbage,
C-c-c-cauliflower,
Memory's April Showers! |

I love this song for the imagery! And the percussion in the background is just amazing!
Birds in the frosty air
What are they doing there?
Greenhouse full of butchers brooms |

Well, if they are both towns in California it adds to this very peaceful feeling of the album as Mark must like the beach life. When I listen to the album I find it very relaxing as the songs seem so flowing and simple but amazing. I think it is a little different than Old Ramon and other Kozelek albums. |

They sing faster than I can think! I try to read the lyrics while listening to it and I try to think about the lines at the same time. This is a great song though. |

Someone just pointed this out to me:
Read the last word of ever line of this excerpt from this song.
and i am not very well read
and they say that i will lose my house
and can you tell me of my pain
and can you tell me of my tears |

| Jeff Buckley – Witches' Rave Lyrics

I have also listened to this song for the drums! But I do that to a lot of songs because I enjoy playing percussion.
I hear it as an absolutely sick sex drive. As if Rave is referring to lust.
Maybe someone can think of an actual explanation for this but: He changes point of view in "you'd like to see him suffer for you fantasy and thrill.
he fell sick while we made love, he's out there, somewhere, still." Maybe he is referring a witch for something more? |

I never knew the lyrics to this until I read it. He says everything so quickly. Now I always listen for the line with "presidential spoon." I don't know why but there is something about that line that stands out to me. |

Yeah, there are songs on the second disc that would need to be changed, but not this one.
Although, all of the songs are awesome if his sole purpose was to give his band an idea of what he wanted.
Such a beautiful song! |

| Jeff Buckley – The Man That Got Away Lyrics

Does the title explain it all? Pretty much.
Someone is grieving the loss of a man who they loved. Just because a simple departing of him, one thing has ended, and so has every other thing. Their life is rougher therefore their past life is over. |

This one of my favorite Black Crowes songs.
Both the words virtue and Vice have a meaning of sexuality whether its keeping or losing virginity. I wonder if that plays into the song. |

I have just read the lyrincs for the first time even though Ive heard the song many times and man are the lyrics graphic.
Yeah his voice is really high but it seems like that in most of soundgardens songs. Like he is screaming into the microphone but the actual strength of his voice is masked by the surrounding instruments. |

This is one of my favorite songs of foos!
I dont know what its about but it seems like there are a lot of songs that people think are about Kurt Cobain whether they actually are or not especially if the band roots back to the 90s.
Not that I am saying that Dave cant write about him as much as he has but just noting. |

Yeah great song. They seem to be repeating their pattern of putting an obvious political message and stab at Bush in a song but not as obvious as bushleaguer. |

I am quoting a comment made by toolucky1234, "attacking bush shows how little class vedder has." What the heck does attacking bush have to do with the class that Vedder's has?! This doesn't make any sense! |
