This song always reminds me of spring. I remember driving down to Florida for spring break during my University days...the smell of the orange blossoms once you hit Central Florida on I-75...powerful memories. Funny how music can do that to you. I listen to this song at this time of year, close my eyes, and I'm 21 years old again.
Was very disappointed with the new Mars Volta when I heard it. Mainly because one of the songs they played live when I saw them back in August was completely stripped back, shortened, and void of melody or typical TMV musical-theatrics. However, I started digging the album on some future listens, especially the second track Aegis.
This album is gonna be thrashed over the next week or so.
