    This song sums up the entire album in 5 minutes than the rest of the tracks did in the other 93 minutes.

    This is wonderful. After watching the documentary about his and family a few years ago, his lyrics became ever so clear and even more powerful.

    Very true glasgowislander. The older you get, the more reality starts to sink in. I miss being young and naive.

    Unfortunately we all get to the age where this does relate, to most of us.

    I never really understood what it must have been like for him, living inside his head.... daamn.

    Music that straight out shows what it is to be human. That why people become artists. It's a need to tell it how it is. Eels always does that perfectly.

    Blinking lights was another masterpiece from E. A musical hero of mine
