This is for fans of the Canadian band The Tragically Hip.  It's off their
album Fully Completely from a year ago.  The Hip are fairly easy to figure
out because they always use two guitars stereo-panned far apart from each
other.  I'm going to try and find time to do more songs off the same album.

The lead guitar is tuned to drop-D.  Only one (not so important) note in
the entire lead part uses that string, so it is not a big deal to keep it
in standard tuning.

	It's impossible to completely understand their songs. "you just gotta feel the music"

	Looks like no one will read this for 2 years, but here goes nothing: What I find stands out in this song lyrics is the prominent stress of the contradictory schism between logic and emotion that is so tightly associated with many facets of life. First off, he says "Bring me back in shackles,/Hang me long out in the sun/Exonerate me/Forget about me." So, free me from guilt but punish me to death anyways? That doesn't make sense, but it's something that happens in relationships all the time. You outwardly take no blame, but you still pay dearly. The logical/emotional split is in the following line as well: "I recommend measures for ending it" is a pragmatic, thought out approach for breaking it off, which is met by an enraged emotional response with threat of dire emotional repercussions. Had emotion been removed from the mix, everything would have gone smoothly. The following lines can fall in place as well adhering to the same theme (though I feel a little shakier here as I don't know specifics about Downie's father, and you can never be sure if he's singing as himself or as a character). He strays from romantic relationships, but sticks to the split. I think he's talking about death, and the logical denial of an afterlife ("ignoring said same [endlessness] of my father"). Endlessness of stars--if not technically true--is a lot easier to grasp than that of a philosophical afterlife. Also, especially younger in life, the death of a parent is impossible to imagine. I think the dilemma is summed up in the last two lines: "Either it'll move me": emotion. "Or it'll move right through me": logic.

	One of those songs I like more and more everytime I hear it, in the simplest of terms it's a break up song - in the most complex bowels of the mind, I dare not fathom what Gord Downie was thinking

No Picture St. Jimmy Wanna Be	#5 by St. Jimmy at Apr 21, 2003 at 6:35 PM EST
	Yea- this and "Vancouver Divorce" are def. the best breakup songs ever. She said "youre gonna miss me, wait and you'll see... fully, and completely!" Sweet song, and IM me at Madscooterfoo
