    Wow, talk about bringing back the almost fundamental of retro music like that of the 70's. So awesome i think I was a hippy or beatnik in my former life

      The guitarist does stuff that’s very harmonically full and the bass supports very well.

    Why do they change their drummers every year? All three are good, so far the second is my favorite, but this new drummer is definitely doing a great job

      It's not exactly loud in the album mix, either. It's meant to drown into the sound, I think.

    Sinceramente curti mais essa versão que a gravada... Fica mais pura, sla. O mesmo com Hunnybee. Só n entendo pq eles mexeram tanto com a melodia da voz na produção do álbum, essa voz dele em live é bem mais a cara da banda

      he wishes he could isolate and be in a void of nothingess, " swim and sleeping like a shark means just floating , not moving , into a dark cold abyss, not dealing with anything, completle isolation, is where he wants to be. powerful song for people dealing with addiction or depression or anxiety.

      Sharks don't sleep, and they never stop swimming. They basically die if they do.

    • @guidorodriguez96
      @guidorodriguez96 7 років тому +5

      Sharks can't stop moving or else they die from lack of oxygen. Some think they can sleep while swiming.
      I guess the song reffers to live without thinking too much.
