@DiskJockyZadain That's how it happened, why would he lie? There was no bodies, he got none to hide. He's just a boy lost his friends in the rain, any more questions just go and ask Lake Pontchartrain!
I want some crawfish, I haven't had any in such a long time. I am from Louisiana also and everyone I know from there including myself pronounce in crawfish. I actually never heard it called crayfish until I was grown... I have always gone to crawfish boils... not crayfish boils.
Well, at their concerts, at one they said it was a song about getting away about murder, and at another gig they said it was about your friends being murdered by fish. XD So, really, I don't think they've made up their minds yet.
He's being interrogated by the police. he murdered his friends and dumped their bodies in the lake, then came up with this story to try to get out of it with an insanity defense.
That line just makes me think that he actually killed his friends and maybe has no recollection of it or is hiding the truth. He sounded like he desperately wanted you to believe him.
@EvilMissSaphy That's what I've thought since the first time I heard the song. I always thought that he couldn't be mentally controlled or something because he didn't eat them.
I remember about a week or two ago, I was listening to this one on the bus to school, and I couldn't help but yell out "COME BACK!" when they did. Everyone looked at me funny -facepalm-
I like to think that this is all a cover-up, not because the song is ridiculous (this is Ludo, they could make a song about a semi-creepy stoner guy who has a shallow crush on a girl in his apartment if they wanted to.
...oh)
But no, I just like that extra creepy aspect from them.
Especially the bit where I assume that he indirectly says "Believe me, or don't go snooping, or I'll kill you like I killed them.
@firstmistake02 As a man who grew up in Florida would say... if you can't see the bottom of the water... there is something in there that can... and WILL kill you.
@kulage200 Exactly, I'm from just down the road. lol I think you misunderstood me, what I'm saying is that Missouri has an amazing music scene and I'm tired of people washing us off as a backwater state with no good bands. Bands like Ludo, The Urge, Gravity Kills, Shaman's Harvest, Ghost In The Machine, etc etc help to prove that Missouri knows how to make music!
Besides the great lyrics, the timing in this song is unbelievable! The way they change from 4/4 to 6/8 works so well! The holds, rests, counter melody...it all works in perfect tandem. A+. An excellent song! I never tire of hearing it.
@KisamierofRuairi I hate all the timings that aren't x/4. D: I wasn't introduced to cut time for four years after I started, and getting used to things that aren't x/4 is hard for me.
The lyrics say the took 55 (which is Interstate 55) and stopped by some place and had crawfish to eat. I know where they stopped because there is only one restaurant along I-55 by Lake Pontchartrain...it's called Middendorf's (in a place called Bayou Manchac). One of the great New Orleans style seafood restaurants to eat - been there too many times to count. I highly recommend your trying it next time you're traveling around the New Orleans area.
@jesusfreak77747 i think that they shouldn't make a music video to this because of 3 main reasons
1. this song is so discriptive that it is best to leave it to the imagination.
2. most bands don't make music videos because of the shut down of fuse and since mtv and other " music video channels" don't show that many music video. back then people loved to watch music videos, but now they like stupid stuff like jersey shore, and silent library.
@AgentDemonEyes Vrai! It can be very Scooby Dooy during Hurricane season. I lived back and forth between Houston, Cali, and PA and never got in that water. Though there are some VERY pretty beaches in Texas :)
@murder13dolls Some pretty ones... But not ANYWHERE near Houston. :D It's so gross. I wore a white shirt, and I've washed it many times. It's still tinted brown. D;
@xDecimatedDreamerx u got guts! i'd join you.. but i have a horrible fear of murky lakes, ponds, rivers, and oceans... and sometimes the occasional puddle.
me and my friends are from missouri and we reenacted all of this and we even saw that demon to, and the 2 friends of mine had crawfish and actually did die....
