Me: I like one song.
Shim: Which one?
Me: Bulls on Parade.

I remember him flying home for a death in the family but I don't remember it being his Mother. Either way, "Issues" was penned and recorded awhile before that happened.

I wouldn't be surprised if there was a factual error in that interview regarding who died. However, if it was his mom, that might be why he was so touchy about it now.

I imagine it is hard for musicians because they write a song about a way that they feel at a particular juncture in their lives, and then they don't feel that way anymore - life changes, they change, and it's like rereading old diary entries, dredging up old hurts. Just my opinion though.

I could never understand the part that Shim kind of talks/screams in the middle.

"You're right I am a failure
And when my life turns to sh*t
It won't have anything to do with the fact that it's all you ever taught me how to do
So you can relax!"

*jaw drops*

That's deep....
I think I just fell in love with this song.

You know, there's just that one interview - It could be wrong... anybody have an insight?

You make a point. But if it's in an article is it personal anymore? I am fine with dropping it. It isn't any of our business. I just wondered if there were any news articles to corroborate the one i posted before.

Let's just go back to discussing the song.

"Issues" exemplifies SP's unique ability to merge various musical styles in order to tell an intricate story. Hamlet's instructions to the actors: "suit the action to the word, the word to the action" is demonstrated here musically. The lyrical metaphor, waking up for breaking free, is told throughout the music. The drudging of the bass in the opening embodies the drudgery of being under someone's thumb; transition to the first chorus speaks of pent up emotion as the guitar pounds away on scales. When the vocals go a little nasal on "they thought was just a phase" to breathy on "but it consumed me" the tone shifts from mocking what "they" thought was childish, to the speaker's innermost desire "consuming" him.

I could probably write a term paper on this song alone...
