Oh man, I love MM!

THis is the first time I've seen the video to this song even though I've been playing the song obsessively for months. I never really looked at videos until I started reading these threads (well once I stopped watching mtv, that is). I don't know about this video, I mean I love experimental and all, but whatever. He's one of my favorite artists.

This guy I'm actually not familiar with. I like it though, might have to check out more of his stuff.

I didn't know what this song is about till I saw the uncut video. In the uncut video you see him put the gun in his mouth. In the cut video (cut because they assumed it was too violent) it shows the blood splattered students and everyone assumed it was a school shooting/ mass murder. Very different.

Most of Paul Kelly's song's tell a story, but this one in particular. It is written and performed by a man , but is written from the perspective of a woman. Really powerful.

Here's one by James Taylor that I always loved, I think that it's an extremely relate-able song:
