    I thought it was Jim Morrison reciting! John Cale's voice sound a bit like Morrison in this track, huh.

    Haven't read the shouts, but bet someone put, among others, "What Bill could teach Waldo", "She gestured, raising her arms upwards in defence" "I tell you, I felt the same way-and even-after a while..." [she bent forward in a whisper] "...I wanted to!" "What do you think it is?" "It would be soon" "Waldo trembled with expectation" . Or maybe not.

    "Awwwwhhhh!!" HeHe! (Just did a THESIS about this, trying to be OH so delicate, but fuck it. So, deleted. Wish I was/could articulate, though.) It was absurdly simple..."I got an idea." "What?" "Just watch..."

    True, but why not mail himself? Some water, perhaps some midnight snacks, and it would probably be as good as going tourist.

    Reminds me of Cornershop for some reason. Anyway, great song.

    Rough hands gripped his package. [2] The sloppy jam session in the background is probably my favourite thing ever.
