| I think it's more free-form observation than judgmental. I don't think it's a 'stab'. SC doesn't tend to have much of an agenda. They have a bittersweet response to what they see in the city of LA here. Besides that it's one of the dopest smooth riffs ever recorded. Damn! | |

| This is definately one of my favorite SC songs... it seems obvious to me that this song is taking a stab at the fakeness of hollywood and the over-influence it has on people these days. everyone wants to be famous... | |

| I love how this conjures a film noir feel. I finally have it memorized. Now I need a fedora, a trench coat and a pack of cigarettes. | |
