10 year old Gran-daughter listened to this with me, and asked me, Granpa... why does he sound like he is going to cry? Well, honey, in my opinion it's because of what he wrote the song about. i think he was telling the story of when love finally came to stay for good. Then she asked... isn't love already here granpa? yes, but only in bits of places and pieces, does it choose to play. And as you will learn later on with your boyfriends... it rarely stays. He is not sad about love staying... He is singing from an aching place in his heart, about when "The Creator Of Love" returns to stay... and how we will all have enough of "His Love To Ride." R.I.P. Captain. i hear Frank Zappas' still not drink'in, but has drinks wait'in for us all. And i hear too... Tom's just a Waits'in.... for His Time to verify it. -gilpin 8-14-15 Letterman asked him why the name Beefheart? He replied... Cause I gotta beef in my heart about the way things are in the world.
