I agree with you stringofpearls. The song clearly depicts the struggles Van Gogh experienced as an artist and as a human being struggling with depression. When I listen to this song, especially the lines "And how you suffered for your sanity And how you tried to set them free" I can clearly feel the artists angst. Don't we sometimes go through a Vincent stage of our own in our own lives??? I think so. Great song, one of the best.
