No kidding–that song gives me the chills, to this day.
To try and answer the question, only Bobbie knows for sure. The original song was a lot longer, but if I recall correctly, the producer cut it down somewhat, making it more mysterious. Good choice, in my opinion. And “unconscious cruelty” and nochalance–exactly!
Moderator notes: there were two threads going on this same topic, so I have merged them. One was started by Sgt Schwartz back in January 2007, the new one was started by curlyshawe4 yesterday. Since curlyshawe4 is a guest and can’t search, it was perfectly fine to start a new thread. However, in the interests of having all responses in one place, I’ve merged the two threads. That probably causes some hiccups in the smooth reading of the thread, but them’s the breaks.
Carry on.
Whew, what a relief. I thought it was the Alzheimer’s finally kicking in.
