Just freakin' love this song.............
Conversations getting dull
There's a constant ringing in my ears
Sense of humor's void and numb
And I'm bored to tears.......

    Definitely in the top 5 best PJ songs. Anyone who doesn't like this song should be beaten with a stiff shoe

    i think it's so under-rated...it is SUCH a good song and I love to hear it live...perhaps in Tampa??

    haha

    No it isn't, although I do love Even Flow dearly, but my favorite songs are ones that really hit close to home.

    Also, I prefer calling it "I got shit" but when people call it by it's other name "I got Id" they usually say I got I.D. but it's actually Id, pronounced as if you were taking the word "skid" and leaving off the "sk" sound (lol I Got Skids).... The word comes from the Id, ego and super-ego if you're familiar with Freud. In short the Id is part of the unconscious that comprises the unorganised part of the personality structure that contains the basic drives. Go go psychology!

    By badass do you mean completely depressing? Don't get me wrong, it's one of my favorite PJ songs. But it kind of makes me want to curl up in the corner and die...

    I remember when it came out in '95 - my wife was really sick in the Hospital for a week. I would walk out to my car at night and listen to it a few times.

    Yes, it is an excellent song. Also keep in mind that the b-side to that is Long Road, which is also in my top 5. I wish they put out about 8 more songs on that Merkin Ball with the quality of ID and Long Road.

    I adore this song, maybe because I feel like am connected with it's message, which I guess I am. "Black" is another favorite of mine, but again the message has been so realistic in my life. Actually I think we have all felt the emotions of both of these songs, such heartbreaking emotion, but I still love these songs.

    Ed said one of the funniest intros when he played "I got shit" in Dallas the last time they were here. The band decided to play a joke on the crowd and had a folder that said "WMD" on it. Ed said there was a matching folder underneath one of the seats, sent people scrambling like crazy. He then said the people that find it, there are backstage passes in there and to come hang out with the band at Encore. Ed then said, For those of you who don't have the folder of passes, well that means "You've got shit" and you can relate to this song." There really were no backstage passes, just a joke amongst the band, but the whole concept was pretty funny. Later he said "so nobody has found the WMD?"
