Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture Dylan Average	#1 by Dylan at Aug 13, 1970 at 11:56 PM EST
	hey jetxblack, i thought about putting that but i thought it was kinda obvious...and i did say atleast so that others could come to the same conclusion you did...but your right, i should have mentioned that one right off the bat

No Picture Gino Average	#2 by Gino Rivera at Jul 6, 1976 at 9:11 PM EST
	"This song is about a street, Division St. and we use to spend alot of time there. It was a whole new world, and we saw alot of people change because of what that street opened up to them. Bad things, like drugs and alcohol. We eventually decided that we had to get away from the street, so we did, and we never want to go back." -- Geoff

No Picture Adam Average	#3 by Adam Foreman at Nov 25, 1977 at 11:42 PM EST
	how are there only 6 comments for the best song on WATT? oh well. this song is badass. I don't understand how this isn't a single. It kicks everyone's ass.

No Picture Dale Rhythm Player	#4 by Dale Diaz at Jan 23, 1981 at 9:37 PM EST
	i heard geoff say in an interview that he attributed division st. to all the pain in his life at one point and that he feels if he stays away from division st. he can somehow not have to go through the pain again

No Picture Peter Average	#5 by Peter Boyle at Aug 19, 1981 at 7:24 AM EST
	I feel like Geoff writes atleast one song about New Brunswick, and how rough of a city it was, on every album (this side of brightness, cross out the eyes, and division st. id say). i like the running themes through this song obviously the lights out thing and the "i'm repeating...i cant keep repeating" if geoff writes a book i'm gonna read it.

No Picture Jimmy Wanna Be	#6 by Jimmy Jazz at Oct 11, 1987 at 8:33 PM EST
	intense sir

No Picture Austin Average	#7 by Austin Schrauben at Sep 9, 1991 at 3:59 PM EST
	i concur

No Picture [matt] Average	#8 by [matt] Anderson at Jul 15, 1996 at 4:38 PM EST
	this is one of the best songs i have ever heard in my entire life!i love the tribal sounding drums at the beginning of it, geoff screaming "lights out! black out! etc etc", "endless row of houses streched out for miles and miles " - this song OWNS!!!

No Picture Tom Average	#9 by Tom Ott at Oct 4, 2003 at 7:54 AM EST
	brilliant song...it could be about lucid dreaming... watch WAKING LIFE and you know what i mean

No Picture Justin Wanna Be	#10 by Justin for-a-minute at Aug 5, 2005 at 1:12 AM EST
	yeah if you ever go to new brunswick, don't go on division street looks like his gf wasn't too smart

No Picture Juicy Wanna Be	#11 by Juicy Dangler at Apr 7, 2006 at 10:11 PM EST
	Good song. "The night is pouring down" is such a cool line.

No Picture black Rhythm Player	#12 by black rose at Apr 18, 2006 at 9:34 PM EST
	But, what about the references to the fever? Burning up... and more obviously, 'The fever that will not break'. I'm really not good at any of this stuff, so I wouldn't know. I just know that this song is off the hook. My personal favorite off of War All the Time.

No Picture Iåkøv Wanna Be	#13 by Iåkøv at May 11, 2006 at 8:54 AM EST
	Uh, tomscahillIV you definatly missed one BIG song about New Brunswick. Dying in New Brunswick, on Waiting.

No Picture M4rk Lead Player	#14 by M4rk at Jun 28, 2006 at 1:29 PM EST
	Wow, I concur with the rest of you guys. Sooooo many good songs in this CD, but this one just grips you. When you sings softly (and I'm not gay LOL) I just melt. Thursday has an amazing way of just painting the entire picture of something with pure emotion. It's like if you just read the lyrics, you'd be like yeah they are deep and amazing, but hear the song with it and its just like the key into the doorway that opens up a whole world around you. Anyway, I also agree that this song is about a place where people have settled along with their distorted emotions of insecurities and hatred. That he was wading among the muck of people left on these cracked streets and vacant industrial buildings. This whole album just gives you this surreal view of industry and what its like to be working down below with other salary slaves. And yep, that's where I am right now. Just waiting... Waiting for the winds to pick up. Waiting for my dreams to blow me up.

No Picture The Penguins Tr Professional Badass	#15 by The Penguins Tried To Kill Me The Other Day at Jul 11, 2006 at 10:16 PM EST
	sorry, my keyboard was sticking...

No Picture Rhythm Player	#16 by riotsk8team001 (jason) at Aug 17, 2006 at 6:48 AM EST
	this song is about Loss of Friends

No Picture Mud Average	#17 by Mud at Aug 25, 2006 at 9:09 PM EST
	From an interview Geoff said that song dealt with his old friend's still doing hard drugs, and his girlfriend lived on division street. When he got to his girlfriends house she was either breaking up with him/or found a new man. When he left her house walking back he got stabbed by some thugs on the street.

No Picture mark Average	#18 by mark stump at Nov 5, 2006 at 6:47 PM EST
	my favorite line is "to dance between the scissor's blades without getting cut" to me it's talking about how geoff played with death everytime he went to division st., either by being around people that were trippin out on crazy drugs and doing stupid shit, or by doing the stupid shit himself. But somehow he lived through all of it, even though some of his closest friends might not have.

No Picture mike Average	#19 by mike rojas at Nov 22, 2006 at 9:35 PM EST
	This song has alot of cool imagery - it gives me the feel of an air raid - the droning open bass and clean chords feel like the siren and alarm, and then - boom! the song explodes and planes are overhead, searchlights scan the sky, but the X is marked - and the night is pouring down!

No Picture Average	#20 by T at May 25, 2007 at 5:25 AM EST
	Geoff put it simply when I saw him this past winter: "It's a song about hating the town you came from"

No Picture Belian Average	#21 by Belian Carter at Jul 9, 2007 at 6:29 PM EST
	Cant believe no one commented on this yet, oh well. but to me this song is about both absolutly loving and hating where you live because of the memories it holds from the past.
