| Man! You missed out BIG time! If they're in town again... GO! I really like this song too, it's oddly upbeat for a song dealing with suicide. And do yourself a favour, bookmark their website, check it daily and as soon as gig near you is listed book a ticket..... Love it!!!! | |

| Watch Crimes and Misdemeanors by Woody Allen. This song is most likely inspired by a scene from the movie (with almost identical lines), in which a Philosophy professor commits suicide by jumping out his window. The suicide note simply says "I went out the window." | |

| Reminds me of the Velvet Underground. Lou Reed-ish. And Cake. but that's just because they have the song "Guitar." ("If I threw my guitar, out the window...") | |
