First of all,what video,secondly,one of my favorite songs by this ever so enduring iconocalistic band,this man is such a profoundly kept secret for likes of all of us ardent Fall fans in today's world of formulated music,it is interesting how famous Mark has over time become,perhaps because of his unrelenting work ethic and the internet/Mini Davis/Winnipeg.

"TC - What's 'How I wrote Elastic Man' about?
MS - Writers, which is why Dave McCullough didn't like it. It's about a guy who wrote a book called 'Elastic Man' and everybody gets on his back about it, he's a celebrity and it fucks up his art."
