One killer song! When I first heard it, I thought it was like a 60s psychedelic/Hendrix/Pink Floyd inspired song. The song blew my mind away! And live it's just magical.

Also interesting when you smoke to it :)

    Every version is fantastic. People sure love that Nurnberg version. I love the Mansfield 3 2003 version. Just something about that version. Also, Pinkpop 2000 is great.

    Love this song. I remember hearing this song in May of 2000 when I was about to join the military. Loved it then and love it now. Timeless in every sense.

    Incredible song, gives me chills!

    That Nurnberg version was incredible- don't think I've heard it before- thanks for that!

    I feel ya cause I usually love Ament's songs... but...

    My appreciation for the song has gone down hill. The song is currently in the "Glorified G" category for me. I don't have to tell you this is the worst category to be in.

    actually, I was listening to the song when I spotted this thred

    freaky
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of
    arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to
    slide in sideways, BBQ sandwich in one hand, cold beer in the other,
    body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "Woo Hoo what a
    ride"!

    Binaural is definitely the way to go when doing this...

    Sleight of Hand and Parting Ways and Of the Girl are especially great for that.

    You are correct. I haven't heard it from any boots recently, only one's from 2000 and 2003.
