Disarm: Because reasons

BWBW: Just because I remember being a kid watching the video on repeat on MTV all the time. Still a jam for me.

Where Boys Fear To Tread: Just sheer badassness in groove form. First thing I ever learned to play.

We Only Come Out At Night: Every SP lovin' goth's anthem

The End Is The Beginning Is The End - Yes, it's about Batman. But I have really vivid memories of the summer of '97 when it played on the radio all the time, and I couldn't get enough of it. In a way they're some of my most powerful ones directly connected to SP. Just riding in the car, singing along to this badass track. Having family that no longer exists.

Behold! The Night Mare: Sonic perfection and in my book SP's best moment bar none. Almost everything they ever did coming together perfectly and the best lyrics Billy ever wrote, I think

For Martha: I have more and more trouble listening to it as my mom gets older and more frail

Waiting:
Yes, I am waiting as I walk your street
Yes, I am waiting as I ride your dreams
Yes, I am waiting inside your doubts
Just let me out

-Song gives me shivers and sadness and longing. Every time. But in a good way.

Blissed And Gone, Soot and Stars: Listening to Judas O on repeat that winter and really feeling the feels as I listened to these two especially, and it started hitting home just how much I'd miss SP and always would.

For every chemical, you trade a piece of your soul
with no return
And who you think you know doesn't know you at all
their drain is needless
Someday we'll wave hello and wish we'd never waved goodbye
to this romance
We'll drink up every line and shoot up every word
'til there's no more

soot and stars

a final soliloquy . . . last reflections, regrets, memories laid bare

mournful and hopeful

i was hesitant to count this one, because the feelings it drums up are so closely tied to the ending of the band, rather than purely "personal"

that, and the "neil" lyric

Could you find away across me
To forgive and forget me
To appease and relent me
To deceive and detect me
To understand and release me
To the dawwwwwwnnnnnnnnnn

lyrically -

and nobody nowhere understands anything about me, and all my dreams, lost at sea

i lay with you this velvet morning, stay with me for a while. where we run to is up to you, but stay with me for a while

and if you lose yourself, could you take me too? could you rest inside my sleep?



music wise - lots, but specifically pretty much all of the instrumental gravity demos. that shit is some of the most emotion laden stuff they've ever recorded.

So last Friday night the wife had gone to bed early so I thought I'd pop the semi-finals of the 2020 World Grand Prix on tv and watch Judd Trump and Ronnie O'Sullivan go at it. Don't be fooled by the title, it only managed to get on itv4, this is only a minor tournament in the grand scheme of things.

During a break segment, they played montage of the two players' progress so far with Disarm playing over the top. I watched them hitting the balls and thought "hey, they DID used to be little boys" and then it hit me: I used to be a little boy too!

For the first time in 20 years that song resonated with me.





That is all.
