Not only does this song freiking rule Live, and On the album, I have a question about lyrics:

at the breakdown at the end, what does he sing, something like 'feel it my love, and i set it down, it walks by' or something...

what does he really sing, I cant quite make it out (I wish these albums would get a remix, they are way too thin for the quality of tracks they are)

I don't think it's English.
We need an expert to pipe in on this one. *nods*

This was discussed on the old forums a very long time ago. You're lucky I save things like this. Here you go:

Fil inanna, È makh zahira i g˙s pah.

Don't ask me what it means, because I have no idea. I assume its some kind of prayer or invocation of Inanna. I hope that helps. Also, this may very well be wrong because I'm not sure if this is just someone's interpretation, or if it came from Jeff himself.

Considering the other lyrics in the song (love is all we have, love is all we need), a reference to the goddess of love seems appropriate.

It'd be kinda cool to have one of the old band mates to pop on once a week or month to answer questions like these. (Mere concert, song and music video questions of course, no personal stuff)

But hey, we all can use our imaginations once in a while Razz
