Windscreen wipers

The basics of my theory on this are actually not my own, somebody else (i cant remember who) sugested something along thse lines to me.

Useful Idiot is the song after H, a song the meaning of which is somewhat debateable. Personally i think that the title "H" refers to Hydrogen, the main element of water.

Consider this H = Hydrogen = Water = Tears (i could have cried and i should have cried then).

Now listen to Useful Idiot and notice how similar the sound is to winscreen wipers on a car. Crying, tears, raindrops, windscreen wipers.....makes sense doesnt it?

Re: Windscreen wipers

Note > He's probably from great britain or Australia. They call the trunk of a car the 'boot', etc. Windscreen = outside of US.


But, this is how I think of the entire Aenima album:

CD > rainclouds > chicken pox > Gary Coleman > playboy mansion > eiffel tower > wind

Re: Windscreen wipers

That is quite the odd break down btw. But whayever works for you buddy. I have always like this song because by the time that most everyone gets fed up with it, then its done. =) As far as the window wipers sounds I have no idea, it hasnt rained for quite some time here. =( But when it does I will be sure to note the sound.

Re: Windscreen wipers

You know my true feelings. I think everybody on here is a dumbass, except the kids who are REALLY smart and use their big words to form long arguments about songs they dont have any proof have meaning at all, like Triangular Vision. Those kids are mega-dumbasses.

Then there are the kids who have been here for a year and a half, so they automatically think their opinion overrides anybody elses; they think they're intellectually superior to anybody newer than them...when it's sad that they have no idea that nobody respects them or their number of posts whatsoever.

But you wouldn't have anything to do with these types of kids, right Roggles?

Re: Windscreen wipers
