How could you not love this song the first time you heard it?! Ive never felt so emotional upon listening to a song before, it is one of the most beautiful songs Ive ever stumbled upon. Really great choice in the use of the acoustic guitar to start the riff is entrancing. Look for it on youtube if you can't find it

Beautiful? It's about the weekend and finding one lover after another to cure loneliness. It's not beautiful, but the song is creative. When you haunt bars and sleep on beds made of straw, there is little beauty and little desire. There is need and dependence.
