i don't know if anybody knows who this is...i'm thinking it could be his grandmother, but not sure...whomever it's about, it gives me those chills that only beautiful songs can give you...

- lilbones - 07-03-2004

It is quickly becoming my favorite song on the album... just beautiful... Don't know who it's about though, sorry.

- opiated - 07-03-2004

i think it has become my fave..can't get it out of my head!! i'm either listening to it, or humming it...

I have no idea who it's about, but I don't think it's his grandmother. When I hear the line about the girl on her cellphone surrounded by her friends, I'm thinking it's probably a teenager....or not. What the hell do I know.

- opiated - 07-03-2004

yeah..the cellphone line throws me..but how many teen's warm their hands with coffee? but as we've discussed many times..this is why we love the lyrics..i also notice that the album is in memoryof Rachel Kohm..anyone know who that is?

My only compaint with Joe is the fade out at the end. I wish Kasper would have just let them play it out.

I typed her name in Google and I found this..

Our Lady Peace - Innocent (Columbia/Sony)
Director: Tryan George
Producer: Rachel Kohm
Production Company: DNA Inc./Revolver Film Company

That could be her - a lady the hip knew from the music business.

I found this on the Matt Good website:

" On Sunday night the producer of the video for "Weapon", Rachel Kohm, passed away in her sleep due to complications from type 1 diabetes. She was 28 years old."

I agree. That's my only complaint on the entire album, and it's a minor one at that, but I definitely think Kasper fades out a little too quickly at the end. During their show at the Whiskey in Calgary, they jammed out the end of that song for what seemed like a good minute or two. It was magical. Can't wait to hear it live again!

I actually like the fade out. Especially with the horns that you can just barely hear, I think it adds a nice touch.

The more I listen to this song, the more I'm hearing "Impossibilium". That's definetly not a bad thing. Then again, this has been my favourite of the new songs since Edgefest.

Maybe they'll bring Imposs back into the setlist this summer? Wishful thinking

Cheers
