The Waiting Song on YouTube
Just found out that the new song Damien played with Glen at the Ruby Sessions on October 6 is on YouTube:

Damien really demonstrates how average Glen is on this track IMO.

thanks for posting the link.
it's beautiful song, very difficult vocally. hope to hear a nice studio version of it. may be Lisa's vocal will fit in better than Glen. also i watched INSANE in the same session. i never understood the song better untill now.

Sure the "the greatest bastard" he played in Iceland is about Lisa...the next album will be even more beautiful when we already now what it will be about (again) ;-)

Brief transcribe of what I hear glo:
It broke me Not what you were saying It drove me out Stay inside Right beside my warmth Stay around And help me through this And help me to do this And show me how to leave you alone And help me know/ignore you And if help doesn't hold you Will it help me to leave you alone I'm not saying ? Not complete But you drove me out I have lied From behind ? But I'm still around Help me through this And help me to do this Will you show me how to you leave you alone Help me to know you And if love doesn't hold you Will you show me how to leave you alone OOOOoOoooooo And help me to do this And help me through this Show me how to leave you alone And help me to know you And if help doesn't hold you If it's help, ? alone *glen and damo competing to make most agitated noises* |

I think it's almost fitting that they sing this together, since they both play in bands with people they were dating, that they loved, and it didn't work out.
I really love it |

Why is it so important for people who a song was written for?

Damien screwed himself over mentioning that some of the songs were about Lisa. Now everyone will try and squeeze the meaning out of every song to relate to our poor knowledge of their relationship.

It's too bad cause songs aren't necessarily meant as diary pages - thegreat thing about songs is that they can mean different things to different people.
That being said, this song is a bit to diary'esque to me in it's form.

^He still has a lot to learn from the true masters of the instrument, like him:

Here's some notes on what I believe I'm listening to:
It hasn't been mentioned yet but the video actually begins after at least one line has already been sung. You can briefly hear the final syllable in the opening second which sounds like it's probably an 'in' to me so... ________ (likely) prayin' That broke me. Not what you were sayin' That drove me out. Stay inside. Lie beside my warmth. Stay around. And help me through this And help me to do this And show me how to leave you alone. It helped me to know you And if help doesn't hold you It'd help me to leave you alone. I'm not sayin' That you're ow(n?)ed. Not complainin' But you drove me out. I have lied From behind oath(s?). But I'm still around. Show me through this And help me to do this Will you show me how to you leave you alone? It helped me to know you And if love doesn't hold you Will you show me how to leave you alone? OOOOoOoooooo Help me to do this And help me through this Show me how to leave you alone. And help me to know you And if help doesn't hold you If it's helped me to leave you alone. Although the laws of causal effect indicate that the last line was meant to begin with "Then", I believe in their fervor they accidentally added the second "If" which is what's understandably causing us confusion.
