I'll quote him."I just want people to hear our music.and what better way for them to hear it then on the radio?" He goes on to explain how not every fuckin kid out there has the access to shows and music stores like us close to the city. Davey goes on to say about how he thinks ITS GREAT. During the interview, they are asked for a comment on the airplay of there newest releases. Do a little homework(for instance watch the video "The Show-Volume One).and you might catch yourself an interview with Davey and Jade. What we share is the common understanding that we all believe in so deeply. None of us have the right to call ourselves punk. This is not a battle to see who is more punk.much like a battle of testosterone at your nearby high school. You people are missing the grand scheme of things here. I happen to not watch mtv, but im not going to sit here and bash on it. Selling out can be defined as letting the money change your music. I suppose this could all just be coincidence or I may just be trying too hard to make them fit together, but it seems like there are some big resemblances at least textually. ".But if something does flash before your eyes/ as you go under, it will probably be a fish,/ a quick blur of curved silver darting away,/ having nothing to do with your life or your death/ The tide will take you, or the lake will accept it all/ as you sink toward the weedy disarray of the bottom./ leaving behind what you have already forgotten." which sort of fits in with the poem's message about noticing something irrelevant when you're about to die, as opposed to your life flashing before your eyes. So those were the connections that I created lyric-wise.Īnd the music video shows some sort of wonderland- like story that ends with them turning into confetti. "What follows has led me to this place/ where I belong with all erased" -> "leaving behind what you have already forgotten," "What follows me as the whitest lace of light" -> "a quick blur of curved silver darting away" "On sinking ground" -> "as you sink toward the weedy disarray of the bottom" "While stars go out tonight" -> "an ultimate Light before all the lights go out". And there seem to be several more allusions throughout the song The last line in the first verse mentions "This art does drown", which I perceived as the first reference to the poem. I'm not sure how all of this fits in together, but I'll give it a shot. on a Friday can feel like an eternity, but the weekend usually ends in the blink of an eye.Ĭould our brains really “replay” an entire lifetime’s worth of memories and moments within a matter of seconds upon death? Countless people who have had near-death experiences testify as much, but up until now neuroscientists have struggled to make sense of what happens in the mind during and immediately after death.I started looking into this song for a poem analysis project in school, and I noticed a lot of similarities to this song and the poem "The Art of Drowning" by Billy Collins, which also happens to be the title of one of their other albums. For example, waiting for the clock to reach 5 p.m. Recorded brain gamma waves during death were similar to those that occur during dreaming and meditation.Īlbert Einstein once said that time is relative, meaning the perceived rate by which time passes depends on the person and situation. The data, at the very least, suggests that our brains indeed continue working not only as we pass away but even in the seconds following heart stoppage. Now, groundbreaking new research by a team at the University of Tartu is providing the first ever record of brain activity during death.
