This is better than a lot of the songs on 'Zen Arcade'- don't know why it was left out of the album.

[HUSKERchout]

i read bob say somewhere in so many words that the content of the lyrics didn't fit the album. it is a great song though.

Emo = Bullshit.  Ignore it and hopefully it will go away.

"I must say emo must be the stupidest fucking thing I've ever heard in my entire life. But just in case you are wondering, I read in my Thrasher the other day, that in fact, what my band along with other bands in this city are playing is emocore. I'm thinking Emo Phillips, the comedian, emo? Emotional hardcore?? As if hardcore wasn't emotional to begin with. Anyway, it's caca. I hate to say it but you can only hold your silence for too long about this stupid shit." - ian mackaye, rites of spring

Ian Mackaye wasn't in Rites of Spring.

@rorymetz Yeah it definitely isn't as bleak as the rest of the record and doesn't go with the apparently 'concept' of the album.

[mrdaren]

this is my new favourite husker du song.

Given the number of outtakes from this mythic album, there was enough place for a third disc!

@HUSKERchout "Emo" has gone from referring to "emotional hardcore" to being a generalized insult for any music that someone dislikes.

[revived0103]

@HUSKERchout what are you talking about? it went away over 20 years ago

[greasethebicep76]

no way
