Nais

haha. YEP!


I like what Jeff had to say about it to...

~Deep thoughts by Jeff Ament~

RE: NAIS


"It was just a little ditty on a demo that I kind of played some hand drums on, and had this little song. Actually, I spent quite a bit of time with the lyrics, and I think Stone initially said, 'Let's try that one.' There were little sections of the song [where] I definitely heard Mike doing his thing, so I kinda said, 'Hey, man, you need to write a theme for these little sections.' It's pretty cool to see a little song that I wrote being played by everyone. I mean, I can almost kind of stand back and just watch this great band play a song,...and take it to a completely different level. Mike and Ed, they have that ability where they can really raise the level of anything that they play."

"For me, it's a song about judgment and not always understanding what is going on with another person."

"Everybody in the band felt good about the song, because it was different from what we had done before, and as artists, you're always trying to do that."



YES!!!!!!



Man, NAIS is just....

Not

Appreciated

It

Seems



Not nearly enough anyway. Thank god for this thread though! Thank you Kaddi! This HAD to be done. This song is gorgeous. So dark too, it's true. I love that about it. It's dark, deep, moving and just beautiful all around.


GO JEFF!!

NAIS unplugged @ Benaroya or Bridge school. or Santa Barbara....?? ..

no song expresses mike's emotion like this song.

interesting fact: the first time i heard this song was on my alarm clock waking me up for school one morning.
