The arrangement on this is amazing. His voice sounds confident? is that the word? no maybe not, hopeful. I think that is it, he really sounds hopeful. "...but clearly I was not ready." When he sings about his mother, ow that grips you. It is like the beauty you find in something dangerous but oddly attractive, the siren's song, a razor sharp knife, a tiger on the loose. Really i'm not ready.

What I found ironic was that Vic called this his "break-up song" with death. It's a song I can identify with more than any other song he wrote.
ReplyDeleteI know. And you can tell that he really thought he could quit it, at the time.
