Who else absolutely loves this song? I always used to skip it because the beginning sounded uninspired but if you really listen to it it is amazing.

The chorus sends chills down my spine.
"That f***ing guy makes me wanna puke, sending a statue of himself on tour: what the f*** is all that about? What a f***ing jerk. You know what I hope? I hope he's buggering Lisa Marie! Shit, that asshole Elvis must be rolling in his grave, F***er."

Chris Cornell doesn't like Michael Jackson.

    One of my all time favorite PJ songs, and just songs in general. Glad to see a thread devoted to it finally, after the countless ones i've tried have died off.
    Happiness is only real when shared

    It absolutely moves me to tears!
    I never meant to hurt you, mi diablo, mi amigo, but I've built up so much character I have an alter ego. I have to make a clean break & I have to do it quick because the pain you give me babe would make Cal Ripken call in sick!!!

    The chorus does it for me. Its so spooky and moving. Why it was left off riot act is beyond me!

    Great song! Definitely one of my favorites. The lyrics are just beautiful.
    How dark a woe! yet how sublime a hope!
    How silently serene a sea of pride!
    How daring an ambition! yet how deep--
    How fathomless a capacity for love!

    Love it! "I'm not the same without you here"
    Seems the more you make
    equals the loneliness you get

    load of people on the pit seem to hate it. I've always loved it. especially the chorus. beautiful
    "I remember one night at Muzdalifa with nothing but the sky overhead, I lay awake amid sleeping Muslim brothers and I learned that pilgrims from every land — every colour, and class, and rank; high officials and the beggar alike — all snored in the same language"
