@06Atheist Dave's creative genius is that you can take the song that way, I can interperet it differently, and we can both be correct. Much like God/Religion. Squirm, like all of Dave's songs, has a meaningful "message" but I don't think that "message" is as imortant as the Intellectual, emotional, and even spiritual "path" we take as listeners to determine what it means to each of us personally. If we are open, honest with, and true to ourselves in doing that, there is no wrong interpretation.
Can anyone tell me what scale Tim is using for his leads here? I believe the song is in the key of A flat, and Tim is using the Phrygian mode, but I could be wrong.
@greatjuanillo examining the song literally, there is some obvious sexual content, "open up your mouth, its coming out hot." Definately a reference to a blow job. Its kinda tough to be sure about the deeper meanings if there are any, but i'd say its safe to assume that song is pretty sex oriented. I don't see much to lead me believe that the song is about cannibalism.
they played here in cologne last month, fab concert, despite pricy tix,, but squirm wasn't on their playlist that evening, my main reason for going,,, :-( oh well, you can't winnem all,
it's called an IEM (inner ear monitor) monitors allow you to hear what you and the others are playing/singing. instead of the monitors that are usually placed in front of the stage (Notice they aren't there), they wear those
i think the new music highlights the three best things about the live Dave experience...Dave's vocals/lyrics, Tim's guitar and Carter's percussion...can't wait for Wednesday!!
???? I just watched it to verify your claim that the 'audio was out of sync' - but I didn't see it. My video and audio are in sync. Must be your connection.
All you have to do is find the backbeat... watch for when Carter smokes the snare. It's a mile off. Great quality though, I REALLY wish it were in sync!
@jpevear the video appears half-a-second out of sync to me, also. Watch Carter's hits on the high hat to confirm. It's just ever so slightly out of sync. But regardless, this song is still amazing. BTW, I'm viewing this on a corporate T1 connection in the heart of Silicon Valley, Redwood City, CA.
You're watching? I'm just listening.

I'm a little bad at english, does this talk about cannibalism or sex?
Or maybe both in a poethic way.....I don't really understand, please light my way.
