hahahah thats great. and whats awesome about Dev's lyrics on a wehole. Terria especially, he said " it just sounded good" ...... I think thats great.

Speaking of sounding good, same song Gaia:
in the later part of the song, the back ground voice repeats...?
what is he saying?

"Be the one that everybody... strives? ..... er? anybody?


"See the world through everybody's eyes
Know you have to go alone"

But really, I can tie a deeper meaning to that exact phrase.

In reconstructionist Judaism, a guy named Mordechai changed the way certain people practice Judaism. He reinterpreted the sacred scripture and made it so that women had a more fair gender role in comparison to men. In the past, Judaism was pretty sexist, and this man changed that to an extent. So Devin saying "She's a woman, feel good Mordecai" would imply that the women can finally feel good because they will now be treated more fairly. Then by overanylyzation you could add any meaning to this. Even though he may have not intended this connection, it is very coincidental.


<Dev nervously looks around and says> "Yeah, that's exactly what I meant. I knew that" :shock:

Sure, Tracy. And when Mordechai Townsend is born we'll all know the truth.

Probably like a lot of his lyrics, which is why I find it amusing when people over-analyze them...
