Dashboard Confessional – The Rush

  General Comment:For me this song is incredible. The melody, the feel.
  Yes it's different than DC's previous works but I still love it.
  The song itself is definitely about being physically addicted to someone. It kinda reminds me of the relationship between a vampire and a human. haha yeah this song reminds me of Sookie and Bill from True Blood.

  General Comment:I never really picked up on the ticking sound until you mentioned it, dar31600...but now that you mention it, I can definitely hear it. And it really enhances the whole song when you think about that.
  The rhythm keeps bouncing along, as time keeps going, not stopping for anyone.

  General Comment:I don't know if anyone else noticed this, but I like how the ticking throughout the song kind of ties into the theme of time and how even though there's no rush, you can still hear the ticking inside nagging at you

  General Comment:Why don't ya'll stop gushing like schoolgirls and actually tell us what you think the song means? Flooding the forum with how much you like the CD isn't what this site is supposed to be about.
  
  I think this song is talking about two people who have sex but aren't together. When they are having sex, he feels alive and it feels amazing and they feel connected and he craves that sensation that wouldn't necessarily last past the night.

  General Comment:I've been a fan of chris since day one, and I'm really impressed with the new CD. I didn't like the new direction Dusk and Summer was going in, but I'm happy the pop-radio songs were cut back on the new CD. I think that this song just shows how he can experiment with other styles...but still stay true to his original sensibilities.

  General Comment:This song is so different from there other songs.
  It's so just The Shins combined with DCFC.

  General Comment:and those old classics bring back so many memories of the things we were doing back then. there is no way dashboard can compete with their own old songs.
