  • "'Half Jack' is the same way, it's about my relationship with my father, but it's also about the crisis of not knowing what makes you what you are. What identifies you . . . gender? sex? family? and the unfairness of that."

    - Amanda Palmer

  • ...What the fuck is up with the fucking beginning and the end?! ಠ_ಠ

  • It's about her dad. And then everything else in life that you could ever struggle with.

  • I truly believe it's about an accidental pregnancy.

  • @RageModeGo Unless Jack and Jill are allegories for the two components to bipolar disorder, but since we're talking about art here it might be silly to get technical.

  • @b1a2y3k4a5y6 I see what you could mean, but it's more dual personality disorder if you look at it that :L x

  • @magenta471 No, actually, the lyric is "halfes". The song is called Half Jack, and the actual lyrics include a play on the word "half" at every opportunity. I own the companion piano book for this album, and one of the official lyrics is "I half a lot to think about", as well as "between the halfes and the half-nots" instead of "haves and have-nots". So don't yell at the video maker - yell at Amanda Palmer for the puns.

  • @MisterManipulater No, the song starts at 0:09... The intro is a part of the song too, you know.

  • song starts at :36

  • @magenta471 Have you actually SEEN the internet? Idiocy abound. Furthermore, if you're looking for grammatical absolution in a youtube video, you're sadly delusional and should probably get a hobby or take some Dickens. I agree that language abuse is infuriating, but you're screaming at the wrong person, and it's probably never going to get any better.

  • in my mind this makes me think of Bipolar disorder

  • This is the song I've been trying to write all these years. It's so bittersweet hearing it done by someone else :/
