Whatever it's about, I think that this is the Pixies' greatest song, and that's saying a lot when talking about a band whose other works include "Debaser," "Hey," "Gouge Away," "Where Is My Mind?," etc. The outro alone is insane and totally hypnotic. Every time I hear it, I just want it to go on forever. The "I'm in a state" part is fantastic as well.
Thanks, Bully. May I suggest Van Morrison's Brown Eyed Girl. It's a very popular song...played daily for years on end by some :D Us blue-eyed women have to dig and scratch and beg and plead to find takers. But we survive!

I totally agree with you. I saw them in 2009 and when they did this song the outro went on for what seemed like forever. They just jammed that chord progression over and over, silhouetted by the smoke and like all moving to the beat together.

It's definitely my favorite of theirs. And I figured I was the only one!
