I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
Matchbox 20. I love them. If you don't have their latest album, drop what you're doing and go grab it! Grace and I saw them last year and they were amazing -- great show. They're skipping our grand state this year. They'll be in Atlanta, Tennessee, Louisana, all up around us, not not in Sweet Home Alabama.
Oh well. And I really, really was hoping to catch this tour. I just may go over to Atlanta, if I can sucker someone into going with me...
Anyway, so the title up there, lest you think I've lost my mind (I have, in fact) is from their newest single, "Unwell".
"Oh no / Feeling like I'm heading toward a breakdown/ And I don't know why/ But I'm not crazy/ I'm just a little unwell/ I know, right now you can't tell/ But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see/ A different side of me/ I'm not crazy I'm just a little unwell/ I know, right now you don't care/ But soon enough, you're gonna think of me/ And how I used to be/ I've been talking in my sleep/ Yeah, pretty soon they'll come to get me/ Yeah they're taking me away"
Great song -- I'm telling you. It comes across as funny ha-ha when you read it there, but the song is so heavy, serious and you feel like you know exactly what he's talking about. Shoot, I do know what he's talking about! As Weezer would say, "I'm not crazy, Milan, I've just been in a very bad mood for 40 years!" Wow -- and get this! I just looked up how to spell those character names, and it is M'Lynn and Ouiser!! who knew????
