"25 Years" - The Go Find

Hello All,

So there’s this real gay point in the song, where he says, “you know..I know....go. I know...you know...go.” That’s really dumb and it didn’t add to the song and it wastes like 2 seconds of my life every time I listen to it.

But you know, the melody and mood is so undeniable. I really enjoy this band, perhaps one of my favorites simply for the mood they evoke. It just seems like there are a lot of things that need to surface in the singer’s relationship. But then the more I listen to it the more I think it’s the singer really just having a conversation with himself, trying to rationalize and make sense of his predicament. You know, some say there are three main things that need to take place in a man’s life in order for him to really just develop and find his soul:
  • Not getting the job you had hoped for.
  • I forget what the second one was. I was reading it when I was inebriated. Why do I do that? Do I really gain anything from it? Hell yeah I do, it’s internalized and subconscious.
  • Having a long term relationship end (with her dumping you).
I think there comes a point in everyone’s life when you just have to jump off right into the deep end; you’ll eventually surface. Slowly walk in and once your feet feel how frigid the water is you'll surely recede. And may you never feel the replenishment of the water through your hair.

See the world through chlorinated eyes this weekend.
