i love this song, and i love this thread...

there's a kind of madness to this song, the kind of lonesome insanity that you feel when you're sitting in the subway car analyzing everybody around you, and singing songs in your head, but feeling quite invisible and unwatched yourself. i love it that these not uncommon feelings of unrequited passion have been expressed in the kind of imagery that makes everything so seem so much bigger and more significant than it really is. long dark hair, angels, ravines, secret signs....it's brilliant! here's someone who didn't just feel the feelings intensely, but could really write about them.
