read something in an itunes review of zeitgeist about how you can't expect there to be a song on there to punch you in the gut the way soma did on siamese dream. so i went and listened to soma again, and sure enough, my gut braced itself to be punched after hearing the first few notes. there's something about that song ... not just the lyrics, not just the music, not just the voice, not just the way i felt when i heard it as a teenager or the way i feel now (always reminds me of trent, even though things are so different, even though i have no specific reason to associate him with that song the way i do with others). the way it builds up, breaks down ... i don't think billy (or anyone) will ever make another song like that one. it's been my favorite for the past 12 years, and i can't imagine how another song will replace it. that guitar solo around 4:30 ... i'm listening to it now and it just destroys me. man. i've got a lot to do. i suck at doing it. i get misty when i see this one commercial with a montage of women giving birth. the biological clock is doing something scary to me. i want babies. woah. woah, lady. woah. if my dissertation would write itself, my life would be damn near perfect. |
