General Comment Actually listerine could be a metaphor for something he narrator packed. You can google drinking listerine. That's what I think anyways. General Comment I have a habit of posting multiple comments on individual songs.
Well I was on my lunch break so I get a pass this time. Listerine is used to disinfect the mouth. Alcohol was used to disinfect wounds. I think that's what he means. Something really strong that goes down hard but better than the piss the brits were importing to those on the mission. Also have to point out gold was found there They were probably promised riches and they return with nothing but an experience.
General Comment I mean it's not about the guy who names it goes home and dies. It's about the guy who works hard goes home and dies. Brings home memories. I mean the Virginia stock company or whatever work or don't eat. It was standard and they took advantage. General Comment I mean I can just sum it up sober and drunk and everything into a colonist who was taken advantage of. General Comment OK so this is the conclusion I came to on a google plus conversation.
When interpreting lyrics there is a literal and abstract meaning. I don't even know what the literal and abstract meaning is because it's complex. It's definitely about him going there doing drugs but there's too many references to the colonization of New South Wales. If you listen to the pronunciations and especially the fiddle his wife plays it's not Irish but it kind of has celtic elements.
They don't spell it out for you. No wonder the critics spooged over this album. I went to Alabama and we loved him. He's just cool.
But he is so talented. Good for Jason I don't see Dirks Bentley writing songs like this. General Comment I hate to be cocky but I'm right stylistically this song wouldn't contain a celtic hint and "busted boat" along with other references to colonization. I mean Dirks could hire a musicologist and he would say yes it's a hint of celtic like I said. It contains too many hints. It's very complex and is one of Jason's most mature songs.
I know the politics rate it up but this is an intellectual song. Jason is really smart and he didn't explain it completely because of historical accuracy. I'm sure it was subconscious and what not but look if you take it all literal from the interview you miss what he puts out. He's so good. Artists - J. Rate These Lyrics.

It was a hit in night clubs around the world but the change in tempo and sexual moaning were too hot for the BBC to handle.
As a polio sufferer he found this label patronising. First released in , Creep was rarely given airplay as it was considered too depressing!

Lord Sutch is better known as the founder of the Monster Raving Loony Party, but back in he stood in his first election representing the National Teenage Party.
