I did some jamming on my guitar(s) this afternoon and came across Garageland which I haven't played for a couple of years. First of all it's a great song, beautiful lyrics and some nice hooks.
When I listen to the first lines:
I read the paper just the other day
About a buddy of mine who headed to an early grave
and with the knowledge that this song was written what became Crush...from the first time I heard this song 14 years ago I imagined that this buddy was Bruce Fairbairn and this song was Jon's reaction to his sudden death, remembering the time before Slippery.
What are your thoughts on this one?
