My dad has been playing Gomez all my life. Listening to them gives me childhood memories. Now, here I am, almost seventeen years later, still listening to them with him.
the intro would really lead itself to a HUGE kick in. I love Gomez, but sometimes they feel a bit soft. The moment those breathy vocals came in, they kind of lost me this time.
Hey StormRisingOriginal, grow up. Using terms like "retarded statement" or "57 tards agree" means you're either an ignoramus, an insensitive jerkoff, or a plain old SOB. Let's assume you're just ignorant and don't know how offensive that is to people with disabilities. Okay, now you know. Don't do it.
why? Selena Gomez, along with every other plastic "songwriter" out there whose success is owed to the DIsney Channel, is the biggest obstruction to the progression of honest artistic expression the world has ever seen. if you're too stupid to understand that, it pretty much means that if artists like Selena keep staying mainstream the human race will actually become more stupid than it already is.
This is a cover of a Red Red Meat song, and frankly it doesn't do the original justice. It sounds like Gomez maybe heard the song once and then reconstructed the song from memory, totally missing the point along the way.
I actually happen to have heard him talking about it in an interview. None of them had ever heard the song before, they purposefully chose a song that they had never heard so that they could experiment with doing a pseudo cover in which they take lyrics they like and write an entirely different song using it. So you are correct, it doesn't sound like the original. But you are wrong, they didn't miss the point. It was on purpose.
this song is addictive! 2:21 to 2:47 reminds me of something Traffic might have done in the early 1970's. actually the whole track has a retro sound to it
traffic really? if anything i would say more rolling stones ( gtta say though i'm not a huge fan of rolling stones and thats not a knock on this song cuz its awesome)
and just that part i would say, the rest is to heavy to be compared to traffic i think, but yay traffic! and while i'm yaying bands, yay weather report!

oh and since u dumbshits think ur all so smart, ur not. This song is about a person who is a driving a car which is called something like airstream. put Airstream with driver and u get someone who is an Airstream Driver..... thats why that say traffic,
actually its about someone driving while trailering his AIRSTREAM CAMPER. whos the dumbshit now? you should really put a little more thought into things before you make ranting insults. and wut the fuck did you mean by a car called an airstream???? THAT is wut u thought of before Airstream campers?????? so back to first question "whos the dumbshit now?", you probably arent witty enough to put 2 and 2 together so ill tell u. u r the dumbshit. XvoidX12, you are a dumb fucker
@LockINC but... there is a picture of a glider. right there. in the vid. it could be that too. especially since it says "Getting dizzy from the heights". just my opinion though. only the songwriter knows what they really meant.
I think Airstream Driver is a lot about drugs, and also about a narrative of people traversing....
Consider the lyric, "She shoots but never misses".... You have to shoot up to do Heroin, so wouldn't it be logical for this song to be about various forms of dope? I am not bashing it, but I appreciate it:)
Second the fact that they were awesome at MEN arena on Monday. Win Park Slope was amazing with powerful vocals and a wall of greatly played sound - buy the album if you don't have it yet!
This song is like a spiritual cousin to the Zephyr Song by RHCP, in my head. The two songs have the same sort of strange lyrics and such... idk. I like 'em both.
i saw them on conan too, loved the song and looked it up, another good one is see the world, i love it, you know any more good ones? i'm still looking

oversleeping the rapture, when she was torn from the wheel - her lover would do it for her, too.

okay, so its not really about birgitte and her silver bow, but i like that interpretation the best.
