Gene Ween - Gener's Gone - Hopewell, NJ - 1/18/2007

[dolotsofacid]

That was moving.

[Linkous12]

This has to be the most beautiful song to come from Ween/Gene Ween. Really great.

[ecolibrium1]

roger waters for sure.....very candid song of reflection

[endorphinvidmaker]

has a very roger waters sound to it

[havukuusi]

He was in rehab for cocaine addiction if I'm not mistaken. Hope he's doing much better now.

[platypusrex]

Is he about to cry at 2:08?

[sketchyfolk]

I ate eggs and bacon at this guys house once many moons ago...he is an awesome guy. hope he is well.

[weenrocker]

I like eggs and bacon!

[JCHRIS1985]

'daaane'

Heroin.

[weenrocker]

You dont fucking know that dude, Did he tell you that, let me guess you know gene and he's a good friend of yours, right?

[cedar688]

sorry its over your head. no boo hooing here.

[erikerik666]

it was a boo hoo type boo...

this song is shinola. wtf get of my back...."over your head" thats Boll SHITZ.

[cedar688]

Bwaahahahahaa

[hyperion700]

but the kids in city holes struggle along with their beauties by their side i see them with love and tears of age falling from my eyes Gener's gone could there be hope for redemption maybe he's locked up in detention a detention of time if everyone hide a place a place to go with otherlike minded people a simple place where Paddy throws the ball to Jimmy but the new youth push his limits of destiny and fate i look to them with love and forgiveness i forgive them

[illl0lll]

Is this on an album? If so which one?

[noochnooch]

nope, it's not on any official release...

[JimmyWilson01]

bye gener

[prickerberry]

love you Gener

[Jeffrywith1e]

Gener's gone

lets hold a candle up for Gener

he loved you all just like his children

and it broke my heart to say goodbye

where did you go?

some say you took up with the Argus

prancing lightly with a Stallion

no man should ever be so free

[Jeffrywith1e]

song makes me want to weep.

[B92MURS]

Very Podish

[brontular]

your welcome, dude.

[prawjek]

i am in love with this song. such a sad tune.

[christyarndt]

I am grateful that Gener made it through.

[bdabus]

Does Anyone know the story behind this Song..?! Is Ween Through..?!

[noochnooch]

Ween isn't through, they just put out a new album! I think he's just saying that he's no longer the same person he used to be.

[sangandongo]

This is a song about his rehab. He went through hell a couple years back. Go get the issue of Harp magazine with them on the cover.

[cedar688]

really? rehab? can you expalin a bit?

thanks

[sangandongo]

go to Harp magazine online. the entire interview is there.

[cedar688]

cool thanks

[jdoncbus]

Unfortunately the magainze is gone...

[tymedrop]

@noochnooch and a further update, a new album is under works!

[AminWasHere]

It has to do with rehab and perhaps leaving behind his alter ego. Maybe he feels like those last few years before rehab changed his personality so much that he barely recognizeses himself as the same person anymore.

[daaane]

what did he go to rehab for?

[weenrocker]

@bdabus you cant be serious,,this song Is about gene being thru with the chaotic lifestyle he's lived,,drugs,,all that shit...He's saying good by to the old gene!!!

[bdabus]

@weenrocker Thank ya Sirrr!!

[milkygear]

@bdabus you guys are dumb, this has about as much meaning as "what deaner was talking about" and "I saw gener crying in his sleep"- its just a song.

[intothetopcorrupt]

I can really relate to this song

[hapiegirl]

Love Ween!!!

[MattieCooper]

Love ya Papa!

[brewmaster]

aaron is all thats left.

[Fermiimplosive]

whoah, total Water's "final cut" sentiment at 2:03-2:09... Awesome sad tune. Fortunately, we've got killer Friends EP, so no need worry and have belief in future! So you no at~

[nickmako]

where'd Gener go?

[cedar688]

Blast! that was wicked!

[autopsyturevy]

"one of the hardest times/and counting, that ive ever been through."

it's all good phill, nic was a dumb 1/2 mexican anyways...

heh, damn good song! first i've heard it.

[doctorR0CK]
