@texasdeathseen This is true. Placebo are an incredibly talented band, with a very wide range of sounds and styles. They are certainly not tied down with sounding the same all the time. This is where real creativity is to be found. Brian Molko's voice is utterly incredible. I've been listening to a lot of their B-Sides lately, and their range is brilliant. The lyrics in this song in particular are amazing. Tells a real story about what is possible.
I really like the change in perspective of this life version, I think they did such a great job of keeping the intensity, and I think it blends together better than the original. Beautiful.
This song is about suicide. And its my story(it freaks me out sometimes still how every word is what happened to me), except that I chugged pills. If you listen to it closely you'll realize it, haemoglobin is reference to blood and blood is what keeps you alive.But this song I guess can mean many things for many people.
For me, this song is more about suicide, but we all can only guess, Brian knows the answer, maybe even Stef and Steve don't know the meaning of this song.
This song is about racism. He was hanging from a tree because he was lynched then hung. He believed jesus was looking down on him because of what happened to him and wondering why he deserved such a fate.
In an interview, which is posted on their web site I think, he describes a very bad experience with drugs exactly the same with that story in lyrics. so..
What a song!!Brian est toujours aussi adorable quand il chante...En accoustique cette chanson est moins bien que l'original,mais Placebo reste toujours Placebo!
@ninjaofthenight777 but it's a damn good song, is it not?
