I keep saying to myself, "He is AMAZING!" He's really inspiring, especially to me. This is the kind of music I want to write/play. I hope he can record and put the record out professionally.

Anyone else hoping/guessing that if that does happen, it will come out on vinyl?

i seen a interview where he said every record gaslight will make will be on vinyl so i bet his solo will to

I like the song but I feel Italian lighting is sooo much stronger.

It's weird, I disliked "Italian Lightning" at first but on the second listen I loved it.

This is definately awesome. I was a bit unsure at Backstreets and Italian Lightning, they weren't bad. But they didn't have the feel that I love about Brian in TGA.

This song however does, and I actually love it.

lol i just realized he's saying "Dorothy's shoes" in the chorus. never heard Dorothy pronounced with 3 syllables before

and i agree, i liked this song a lot more than the others.

Do-roth-ey

It's always pronounced that way I swear!

Subject: Re: the blues, mary Fri Jan 02, 2009 8:00 pm

haha good point stalls lol

ya its referring to the wizard of Oz.. dorothey had killer red shoes in that movie.. and thats where the famous line "somewhere over the rainbow" comes from...

my favorite line from the song is: "my baby swings like a boxer, sends her right hooks onto my chin.."

not quite sure what its supposed to mean (ive got an idea) but is sounds awesome! lol

Subject: Re: the blues, mary Fri Jan 02, 2009 9:36 pm

yeah, i definitely got the reference right away, i just couldn't understand the word "Dorothy". i'd be surprised if anyone doesn't know the story of Wizard of Oz and hasn't seen it at least a few times

my favorite line is: "I fell asleep most nights with your pictures right behind my eyes"

frickin' genius. and btw, what does the distorted vocal part say after the "Cries like a baby part," after it stops repeating the clean vocal part?

I can't figure it out entirely but I think it ends with "watch her leave?"

The '59 Sound Posts : 1269 Join date : 2008-07-03

I feel like this is more of a Gaslight Anthem song than a Brian song

yeah, something like that. "I felt the blues as I watched her leave" maybe?

A Contender Posts : 245 Join date : 2008-08-31

If I understand what part you're talking about, I'm pretty sure he's saying "I'd rather go than watch her leave"

A Contender Posts : 245 Join date : 2008-08-31

and let me just add, the background vocals at the end, gave me chills the first time i heard it......love this song.
