    Love that line... :D

    What do you think to Car Seat (God's Presents)....?

    That line is great. Gets me every time :o Combination of the words and how he sings it :D

    Very sad :( I don't know where Shannon would have learnt God's Presents. I remember hearing the story that Car Seats is based on and you couldn't believe something like that could actually happen.
    So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?

    Very sad :( I don't know where Shannon would have learnt God's Presents, church maybe.

    I find that such a mindfuck song:

    Tongue ties, nerves as big as boulders
    Why mom, I thought I was
    Your soldier?
    My brother sits by me
    Buckled into the carseat

    Feel the thirst, it's time for
    Pulling over
    Into the truckstop on my daddy's
    Shoulder
    Out back where they plant all
    The trees
    Ten feet away my daddy buries me

    Great song and sounds like a nice family day out then that last line... ouch!! :eek:

    Don't know the story but it evokes such images...

    Even worse when you know it's based on real events :mad: The God's Presents was written over 100 years ago about a different murder case.

    WARNING this will make you angry and sad at the same time. Don't click if you don't want to know :o

    I remember watching a documentary about it before I realised that was what the song was about :(

    Thought it must be something like that, my two lads would have been 6 and 3 when I first heard it and I think it put me off listening to the album to be honest :o It's a very good track, just leaves a strange aftertaste!! :o

    That was Nothing's Shocking if I remember correctly? :eek:

    Love that album, needs listening to properly not just as background though...

    Not even Jane Say's??? :eek:

    edit: read some interviews recently where Jeff said they were a strong influence on him and Stone ;)

    It was so wrong in so many ways :( First that a mother could do that, second that she did the whole going on TV and pleading and also giving a description to try and frame somebody :mad: and then the reason she gave. You like to believe that people aren't capable of things like that ...
