hah. meant to say...awesome song. So sardonic. I guess I think it's kind of anti-escapism rather than anti-south. Guess the alcoholism reference was a dark nod to his own troubles at that time? |

It's almost certainly Winona Ryder. There are pictures of Conor kissing her. And besides it all fits pretty well. Older woman (10 years older) California references (Hollywood Actress) Patron of the arts (She has dated a LOT of musicians) |

Zeegen. The line is CLING to bottles not 'Clink two bottles' I regard this song as being from the view of someone who has drifted into a monotonous job somewhere in London and who can see no happiness in the future. He feels alienated from his colleagues 'Sitting in silence in bars after work, i've nothing to add or contest' He conrasts this apathy and alienation with childhood and the past (when times were better) He feels like he is missing his chance to make a mark or find happiness 'Grindining your teeth in the middle of the night' 'I wish I'd not been so scared of falling' The Brighton line is perhaps the most interesting. I personally find London really opressing and I know others who feel the same. Driving to Brighton (a town on the coast) can be seen as an escape metaphor, perhaps the protagonist is gonna take action to get more out of life. |

This may be from the official booklet. But it's CLEARLY not "And didn't want them back" |

It's a great song. My favourite from 29. He uses the sad sweet voice, that he only rarely uses now. It always makes my heart break a bit. |

Just a couple of points besides they typos. It is King Saul that commits suicide not King Sol. This is a reference to King Saul in the books of Samuel in the bible. And the killer is Raskalnikov, a character in Crime and Punishment |
