Talk:The End Of The Tour

From This Might Be A Wiki

This song is incredibly sad. This is the only TMBG song that I have actually cried to.

I agree. One of the saddest songs out there. I've cried to it too. :(

Truly a thought provoking song

My Ex-Girlfriend and I-(From around when this was a NEW song)-kind of thought of this as "Our Song". That's corny, but it fit our relationship well at the time.

I want this one played at my funeral. Anna Ng 20:54, 31 Mar 2006 (CST)

It is kinda sad. But not as much as They'll Need A Crane or I've Got A Match. --Valerie 17:09, 19 May 2006 (CDT)

Maybe not as sad as I've Got A Match, but I've always had a more optimistic interpretation of They'll Need A Crane (that it's about a couple that fights all the time, but in the end their love is so strong that to take it apart they'd need a (metaphorical) crane and wrecting ball). TEOTT is just terribly sad (though there is some hope at the end, when he realizes he'll see her again when he dies). Though I do agree that I've Got A Match is sadder--it has such an obvious meaning, and that meaning is tragic (not to mention the fact that the song itself sounds incredibly sad).
End rant. ~Anna Ng (posting from school, yay)

Creepy fact: Tony Maimone played on two tracks comparing relationships to fatal car crashs: That one and Flat from the Cloudland Pere Ubu album (which I'm enjoying this very minute. I hope The Else will at least be as good - I'm waiting for the CD to come out. Hmmm, bonus disk!) - Whirrrlwind (Woosh!) 20:34, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
