  • Stevil,that's really beautiful :) I think this collage is something that Alison herself might dig around Tales of Us era :)
    Glitterizer - you really captured the mood of the songs,I just don't really get Faux Suede Drifter and you went into fun territory with Ocean :)
    Iuventus,you're bit shady :D :D :D

  • Are you implying that there's something wrong with Head First, Part 1? One might deem that shady.

    Thanks! Well, the girl in the pic is wearing a faux suede jacket hahahaha, and reading the lyrics I get the sense that the song is about a lover who can't settle down with you, someone whose motives are mysterious and may give off a "nostalgic for something they never had" vibe, a wanderer, a drifter, and I kinda thought the image conveyed that.

    Hmm, I feel like the song is about a woman's intuition telling her that her lover is cheating. I get a 'jealousy' vibe and the feeling was never brought out into the open or discussed. Maybe it's the 'touching you with a loaded gun' line.


    That's a really good analysis too. I now feel it's a combination of both mine and your interpretations, they complement each other actually!
  • ^ Yeah, we're pretty good aren't we.. :P :-bd

    What is done in the dark will always come to light
  • That's pretty cool, would have made a good single actually, from an eccentric sense.

    Darnit! I'm always so far off...

    I saw a handsome middle-aged transgendered woman who falls in love with, and subsequently murders, young European female guests at her Haight-Ashbury district Airbnb as they sleep, unawares, on her reproduction Danish Modern pull-out sofa. With every kill, she reupholsters the sofa in a new pastel hue of faux suede, as real suede would be prohibitively expensive.
