"when they fight, they fight" - generationals

i've decided horribly-done renditions of album art via sumopaint is going to be my 'thing.'
i daresay i pretty much pawn at them. look at that pout! i'm pretty damn proud of that tie, gotta say.

This song will NOT leave your head for weeks, I swear. At the zee avi gig, my friend was cracking up because every time we had a quiet moment, I was either humming or singing this song. IT'S JUST THAT CATCHY. The beginning sounds like some goddamn disco/70's song which alone catches my forgotten and lonesome bell-bottoms' attention, and then it goes right into the chorus, and you're already boogying along. it's that good, i pinky swear.

When they fight, they fight
And when they come home at night they say,
"i love you, baby." <-- THIS PART RIGHT HERE.

OHMAN. this is a song you HAVE to listen to in the car, windows down, AT NIGHT, and just sing your little heart out & drum on the steering wheel. it's worth it, i swear. it's the best way to listen to this song, i'm convinced. (granted, i've never heard this live in-concert, but the whole ambience of summer nights, driving down the road is just...in HARMONY with this song.

Was it too much too soon,
Or too little too late?
He got the message she left on his car, in the rain.

the way they sing the words, too...it adds something another group could never replicate.

And when it all comes crashing down,
what can you do,
to find what you're looking for?
And then the words will come to you,
driving through the rain.

But there'll be no one there to say them to anyway.

and i obviously can't speak for the artists themselves, but to me, i see this song as meaning something along the lines of a couple who are struggling in their relationship. they keep fighting, but they're still willing to work it out; however, they continue fighting. finally, it dawns on the guy/girl what to say to their significant other, but it's too late. their other is gone.

kind of sad for such a groovy song, but i still dig it, chyeah. i'm doing the hustle right now. too bad YOU CAN'T SEE ME. MUAHAHA.
