Title: Strangulation!
Post by: stevenflow1989 on Oct 22, 2008, 02:26 PM
How did I just now fully appreciate how amazing this song is? It's the song that's been stuck in my head for the last few days, it's just genius. On At Dawn, from I Needed It Most to the last track, those songs play together and fit together so well with lots of reoccuring themes, just genius. But damn, strangulation...I can feel the emotion in every part of it, the lyrics, the delivery, the dynamics....wow.

Oh my god!!! I know! I could say that it's one of my favorite MMJ songs, but that would be pushing it because I love all their songs! But I will say, that it's the one song that I've played over and over in my head.

I have been listening to this song (more than usual) for the last month or so, and it has to be one of the most powerful songs I've heard. It literally takes me up in the air where I float for awhile. It than slams me down...makes me feel alive. For a song about suicide, it has made me love life...

Strangulation is the one song I would love to hear at NYE...and Where To Begin.

It's lame to say 'me, too' but I'm going to go ahead and do it.

Me, too.

My problem with those two songs (and a few others) is that once they start up, I tend to listen to them about 4 or 5 times in order to get my fix. Maybe hearing it live will be some kind of magic cure. Or send me into a tailspin.

:-/
