I don't have the map - Idlewild
From the 2000 album "100 Broken Windows", released on Parlophone records
For artistic integrity, tune guitars down 1 semitone (Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb) as that's how
Rod has his guitar tuned
although this song can be played in standard tuning (simply subtract 1 from all the fret
numbers)

tracks [because of overlaps etc.], and at this time Idlewild only had 1 guitarist!)

| This strikes me as a situation where Roddy has an unconventional and unpopular viewpoint on a particular (probably major) topic, and brings another person around to his way of thinking. However, the other person isn't comfortable with the feeling of ostracism that goes along with this viewpoint, and dislikes the feelings of isolation. Roddy's way of saying "welcome to the club... the truth ain't always popular" Of course it could also be about Gilligan's Island | |
