    The first time i heard that song was almost 11 years ago today.
    In the parking lot right before Pearl Jam played Red Rocks in Morrison Colorado..

    amazing amazing show on an amazing night at the best venue this side of the Gorge..

    too bad they are playing pepsi center this year instead of RR.
    Every 4th its either "String Cheese Incident" or Blues Traveler..

    They should just hand the amphitheatre over to Pearl Jam and Petty.. The venue alone would make that show an all time classic.

    Let's discuss this song, shall we? What is it about? I need to look at the lyrics, too. I like this thread because I was Bibliobella, but Bibliobella no more *sniffle* . . .

    Well, after reading the lyrics I see this isn't the happiest of songs, is it? It's like the person in "Please Let Me Sleep" dies, and is floating over another person almost dying, too. I'm going to read those lyrics again just in case I'm far off. I guess I need to hear this one. Anyone have a copy they can email me or whatever?

    Aha! Thank you to the kind poster who sent the link. Well, a little rocky at first, eh? However, I think the change into the "hymm" like melody reflects a certain clevernesss. I think the beginning would be better spruced up a little like a bona fide rock song. With the acoustic I feel Eddie is trying too hard to fit the sentiment of the words into the music, but that sentiment is too passionate for acoustic.

    I wish they would play this live, though. I think it could be very powerful live. It's appropriate any time of year it seems. I think it would be great live.
