No Picture mike Average	#1 by mike rojas at Jun 4, 1985 at 5:36 AM EST
	Crap I love this song. I get goosepumps when geoff says "dooowwnn" towards the end. I love it when he emphasises the intensity by singing louder in the part, "and the footsteps are getting louder." To me, this song means to hear the world ("do you hear the jet plane yawning miles across the sky?"), hear all it has to offer, but closing it all off ("shut the window, love. keep the world outside") , and not caring about anybody ("I don't want to think about anyone" and "I'm not answering the phone--let it ring"), means people care about him by calling him, but he doesn't want to talk to them. To hear the line at the end, "by a falling bomb", I had to pick up one of my speakers, turn the volume up extremely loud, and listen with all my might to hear him whispering. It almost made me cry the first time I heard it. It's as if he's just spilled his deepest, darkest secret to an untrustworthy person. It's actually a shame this song is so short. IMAGINE IT LIVE! That would be fucken awsome! Thursday never come to Australia, though :-( Best line in the song: "but the footsteps are getting louder, drowning out the sound of the rain, as it knocks on the windowsill"... really makes me think... xxx
