I heard somewhere this is based on a dream Jeff Magnum had. It was tried in the studio but he didn't like how it came out. Great exaple (via the live versions) of how Jeff can turn a quiet serene scene into utter chaos, and this is his most chaotic song. The moog synth, feedback, imagery of a burning ferris wheel slicing the town in half. One of Neutral milk hotel's best.
