I love it!

Re: irielove January 17 2003, 13:55:42 UTC

thanks, its about my friend/mentor, the most influential artist in my career, who made some of the most orginal songs in the past 20 years and now is stricken with a very hard life. Try listening to God Lives Underwater sometime. This song is about him.

thank you for the insight, I will surely listen to it.

try looking for songs titled NO MORE LOVE, WEAKEN, CANT COME DOWN, HAPPY?, and EMPTY.

If you just read the chorus it would seem catchy 'n whatnot, but the lyrics are wonderful :) I don't know if you were being sarcastic about it being your greatest song written yet but I actually think its very good, better than some of your other stuff even though its all good generally. It's got great imagrey too.

"Lunar eyes
Once wide open now closed to the outside
Am i am i
Supposed to just stand here and watch you
Fall from the sky?
You were high oh you still are
But once youre past the stratosphere
Comin back down will be much too far"

Thanks alot. I tried really hard on this one. Its my greatest simply because i knew what i wanted to write about, which is extremely rare, and i feel what i was writing in regards to was a very significant subject. My friend Dave, who used to sing and write the songs for the singlemost influential band in my music career, God Lives Underwater, is going through extremely hard times right now and i wrote this in his honour.

You're very, very talented in your writing, as everyone has said.
GLU are also incredibly talented as I have recently discovered.

Although i dont want to sound like them, im really aiming at following up on their innovative rock/synth formula. I think they are the only ones whove gotten away with it in moderation.
