Can't believe there are no comments on this song. Heard it for the first time on Triple J this week and it was love at first listen... Sounds to me there's a relationship in which he tried really hard to keep the girl happy but despite his efforts it's falling apart. Thoughts? |

Cannot believe there are not more comments on this song! I saw these guys live last week and they're amazing. This is one of my favourites although I have to say that I have no idea what it means. I'm sure that Glenn has put a deep and meaningful meaning in there somewhere but I'm not brainy enough to work it out! I think it's interesting how it progresses from "good feeling" to "strange feeling" and finally he goes into "the mouth of the black dog etc" as opposed to "out" of them. Maybe something to do with growing up? The references to the seasons and nursery rhymes? And the line about the beast with it's eternal slobber on my finishing youth... Anyone else, thoughts? |

Love this song. There's a massive culture in Australia of young people going over and living in London/the UK for a couple of years. If you go to London every second person you meet is an Aussie or New Zealander (or South African for that matter!) This song is just about how she's finding it ironic that she used to dream of going away and living in London and now all she can think about is home, and she hopes it hasn't changed! I lived in the UK for a year and this song was GUARANTEED to generate some serious homesickness. Gorgeous song:) Love The Waifs! |
