The ULTIMATE break-up song! Before I was married, I would play this song whenever a relationship didn't work out. This song has all the elements of a failed relationship and literally reeks of emotion. "It's easier for me to get closer to heaven than ever feel whole again." My God, put the gun to my head and fire away! Here's a sure-fire recipe for singing the blues: Play this song back-to-back with Counting Crow's "A Murder of One" and Gin Blossom's "Hey Jealosy." Then tell me you aren't ready to either slit your wrists or camp out in your ex'es back yard with binoculars. Love Stinks! (Hey that was by the J Giles Band...hmmm).
:-) Peace
@Rogue1 I always thought Disintegration was a song of a relationship ruined by addiction.Dropping through sky through the glass of the roof through the roof of your mouth through the mouth of your eye through the eye of the needle, it's easier for me to get closer to heaven than ever feel whole again

@surfsupl10 I never noticed the drug references before — interesting point. "Easier for me to get closer to heaven than ever feel whole again..." does tend to suggest the standard junkie technique for finding heaven. (Technically that kind of needle doesn't have an "eye," but wtf anyway? <g>)

I was going through a horrible bout of depression when this album first came out (jeez I feel old) & this song in particular tends to remind me of that time. But I still love it. Definitely a fantabulous misery song, however one interprets the specifics.

"I would play this song whenever a relationship didn't work out" - looks like I'm not the only one to do that :'-)
