]]> I’m sure very few people care, but I’m going to stop doing the Things I Founds Interesting posts here at least for now. I actually really like the idea of sharing links and want to keep doing it, but dumping out lists every day isn’t how I want to do it anymore. I think links should come with ample commentary on why it is that thing is being linked to. So this will resurface someday in some form when I figure out how best to do that. The source of these posts was my Delicious account anyway, so if you did enjoy the linkage, you can subscribe to that.

    ]]>     I quite like this song by the Tallest Man on Earth. I normally don’t analyze songs like this, but the lyrics intrigued me so much and I listened to it so many times it just happened. I decided it is a song about paranoia, murder, and how that’s just what you gotta do sometimes.

    Lyrics My interpretation
    I sense a runner in the garden A new guy is in the picture, very close (garden = backyard)
    Although my judgments known to fail Admits from the start he’s prone to bad judgement
    Once built a steamboat in a meadow He does crazy shit sometimes
    ‘Cause I’d forgotten how to sail And rationalizes it easily
    I know the runner’s going to tell you Paranoia creeps in
    There ain’t no cowboy in my hair This new guy is going to sabotage him
    So now he’s buried by the daisies MURDER
    So I could stay the tallest man in your eyes, babe Problem solved…
    I sense a spy up in the chimney Immediately, new guy in the picture again
    From all the evidence I’ve burned Paranoia creeps in
    I guess he’ll read it in the smoke now A bit of guilt
    And soon to ashes I’ll return Could be the end of him
    I know the spy is going to tell you Paranoia
    It’s not my flag up in the pole Sabatoge
    So now he’s buried by the lilies MURDER
    So I could stay forever more in your eyes, babe Problem solved…
    I sense a leak inside my phone now Worst paranoia of all: “big brother”
    From all the lies I have told Some awareness he is flawed…
    I know he has your private number But still very paranoid
    And soon he’ll make that vicious call Sabatoge
    I know the leak is going to tell you Paranoia
    There ain’t now puppy in your leash Sabatoge
    So now he’ll fertilize the roses MURDER
    So I could stay the king you see in your eyes, babe Problem solved…
    And now we’re dancing through the garden Happiness has returned
    And what a garden I have made Awareness of past activities
    And now that death will grow my jasmine
    I find it soothing I’m afraid He’s proud of it
    Now there is no need for suspicion Interesting double-play on suspicion. Who should be suspicious, him or her?
    There ain’t no frog kissing your hand No intruders left
    I won’t be lying when I tell you Confidence
    That I’m a gardner I’m a man in your eyes, babe I guess sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do

    The La Blogotheque video is pretty awesome too:
