I don’t know why but I have always liked this song. The music is fabulous. I like the combo of guitar, drums and bass alongside poetic lyrics – it’s an interesting fusion of rock, metal and a bit of an alternative hint to it.
I’ve just ‘read’ the lyrics of the song and it makes a bit more sense ‘why’ I like the track. It hits home when you really listen to it. Don’t we all aspire in some way to be like our parents ?
And this is a song about how a father was to busy doing other things rather than spending time with his kid whilst the kid was growing up. As the son got older, and went on to have his life – the father wanted to spend time with him but the son was to busy. So in essence his son really did quite become like him – not having time for those they care about.
What do think about the song ? Do you remember it ? Did you ever really think about the lyrics ? I know I didn’t until I wrote this post !
