W(TF) Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 I'm sure I'm not the first to notice some of these apparent "weirdisms" (?). YHF: the album starts with "I" and ends with "You". SBS: starts with "Maybe" and ends with "Yeah". Sure, I need a life. And I really try not to read too much into stuff. But let's hear a few more examples. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zebra Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 YHF is the Marina Towers. I am sure birds nest somewhere on one of the towers. AGIB has an egg. SBS has birds flying. Maybe one of those birds was hatched from the egg that was sitting on Marina Towers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
froggie Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 AM starts with "you" - YHF ends with "you" both BT and AGIB start with "when Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stickman Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 It's embarassing that we think they are embarassing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aricandover Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 No it's when. "When you're back in your old neighborhood..." I just listened to the song, and it starts with "Back" there's no "When you're" Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Stewart Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Tweedy was the name of Lincoln's secretary and Farrar was the name of Kennedy's secretary. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
W(TF) Posted August 22, 2007 Author Share Posted August 22, 2007 how are these things embarassing? Well, I dont mind being a mildly 'rabid fan', but to be an obsessive fan would fall under....uh, "disturbing" behavior. Where I come from at least. But if I'm safe with y'all here in the loony farm, then I can change the title to something more benign and welcoming. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Speed Racer Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 I just listened to the song, and it starts with "Back" there's no "When you're" You must be listening to the demos. There's definitely a 'when you're.' Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aricandover Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 You must be listening to the demos. There's definitely a 'when you're.' no demos, just a store bought copy of Being There from 1996. I listened again, and I don't hear "When you're" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
