69 Blips

If you listen really well, you can hear exactly 69 little electrical blips during the track. I counted.

Just thought that was interesting...

Re: 69 Blips

I broke it all down and came up with this:

$@#$ 5$%=$%$ (19)2 sa09as * geese flyway patterns / cheeze + softcore porn (current GNP of China - Bill gates Gross salary) * (o )( o) + ==D$%#% 6%^ @#

And the answer is: The mass of John Candy's Corpse which came out to 166 lbs 6 oz.

Re: 69 Blips

^lol
dude you guys, i found the secret message in the whole aenima album, just count how many times adam hits the a string in stinkfist, and minus 69 plus the number of national parks in north america divided by the number of tracks on aenima...

compare this too...

im gonna put my thinking cap on, im gonna analyze (-)ions, a filler song just intended to create a more murky vision of aenima, to the point where i accually sit for a few minutes silently and count the bleeps instead of think of songs that accually matter on the album, because i am a virgin and live in my mothers basement...


both sound pretty daft eh?
hmmm normally im not this hostile but i was bored so i thought id give the guy shit

Re: 69 Blips

ALL i have to say is....common, (-)ions was intended to be a filler song, just to make the cd complete i'm sure that it doesn't have any kind of value, cause when it comes down to it doesn't it matter what you can do in concert, and what can you do about (-)ions in a concert, stick a tesla coil on stage for 15 god damn minutes

Re: 69 Blips

hmmm
off the top of my head i have a feeling that its never just a filler track
i dont know exactly why but why wouldnt there be one between each track then to give them all a better feeling.
there must be SOME purpose for it or they could have just put in silence or anything really but they chose this and choices mean a lot to me personally because its the choices that we make that determine the path we will walk and all that kinda bullshit

it may come down to simply not believing in coincidences
then again i could be very wrong as always

edit: side note how could it simply a filler track if it completes the album. if it comepletes the album doesnt that give it a purpose over just a filler track?

keep on
peace and love
chris

Re: 69 Blips

Lol i was about to write something pretty much the same as that^. Here's what it seems to be:

The Wind Sound: The wind is probably just an interpretation of air. If you read mstajduh's post you'll understand what it's about. If not then they just trying to talk about how there is negative ions in the air etc.

The Electrical/Buzzing/Blip Sound: Is the fact that there is negative energy in electricity as well. I also think that because it swings from one speaker to another it's meaning that there are both sides to the energy: Positive and Negative.

P.s. Thanks mstajduh, ya saved me a lot of time :)

i disagree... but the songs importance is relative. It depends on your perspective.

Re: 69 Blips

...it's a fucking negative ionizer. I have one in my closet that I don't use anymore.

Negative ions come from nature, the ocean, forests, animals, calm people, etc.
Positive ions arent necessarily bad; they just get you giddy and anxious.

Everyone who's arguing over static needs to grab a life and hold onto it.
