Crissysix from StlJust want to tell all true doors and Morrison Fans that You Rock! I'm proud to be in the world with such deep feeling souls!.Its an ironic message coming from a man considered to be a spokesman for a generation pushing for peace and love. what does it mean when at the climax of the song and presumably he has finally arrived at some inner truth (he has even dropped the whole oedipus complex thing at that point) he is reduced to just repeating “f*ck” and “kill” over and over again. It perhaps was a worthwhile experiment but I think should have been cut from the final song mix that was released.īut what really bothers me is if you buy into the idea that the spoke word part is Morrison peeling away all those layers of convention, norms, inhibitions, etc.


Being the 60s, I think this was the kind of experiment people did as a way to explore a person’s inner psychology without constraints - just sing whatever comes to mind. I read an interview where Morrison said it started out as a breakup song but kind of morphed into a song about death being a release from the pain of life, which explains perfectly the line “my only friend, the end” and the meaning behind the song - except for the spoken word part which in my opinion has almost nothing to do with the original meaning and ruins the song.Īs far as the spoken word part it seems pretty obvious to me that Morrison is just ad-libbing here and it is just a collection of spontaneous thoughts/ideas that have no real connected meaning.

“I love him so much I wanna do it again with you tonight.”Ī pair of black bedazzled sneakers slid to the middle of the stage on a moving portion of the floor – which the dancers used to their advantage later - prompting Usher to ask, “New York, do I have permission to fill these shoes?” The room replied with a thunderous roar as Ursh glided to “Don’t Stop Till You Get Enough.”Īfterwards, Usher tapped into his sexy, ripping his tee shirt off and singing some of his more sexually-charged tracks, including “You Make Me Wanna,” during which the dancers danced atop chairs and slithered on the moving belt, and “Nice and Slow.” Usher then sang more of his recent smashes, like “Love In This Club,” “Lil Freak” and “Hot Tottie,” sans Jay-Z. “Not too long ago, I had the fortune to pay tribute to the greatest entertainer that ever lived,” he said. “Madison Square Garden, are you ready?” Usher asked the energized crowd before taking his jacket off and launching into a slew of his hits.īacked by four female dancers and four male dancers, Usher performed tracks like “Yeah,” “You Remind Me” and “U Don’t Have To Call,” before paying tribute to the late great Michael Jackson. After opening acts Miguel (whose vocals soared throughout the MSG venue) and Trey Songz, who had all the ladies in attendance panting in exhilaration, Usher kicked off his set on a floating platform that transported him in mid-air from the middle of room to the main stage.
