Title: EIMA lyrics now in TOYS section
Post by: Geddy Lee on December 17, 2008, 02:32:22 PM
I just discovered that the lyrics to EIMA now appear to be up in the TOYS section of the site. YOU/I, WONDERLAND and the"SECRET SONG" ( whatever it IS called ) don't appear to be there just yet. I take it that these are the OFFICIAL lyrics? I only ask 'cos "Four Reasons" in the lyrics to FALLING DOWN still seems to make no sense to me, surely it's "For Reasons"  ???

Cool stuff!

Four Reasons makes a lot more sense to me than 'For reasons' actually...

Well 'Four reasons why I told you lies...' makes quite a lot of sense! You know, there are four reasons why I told you those lies. Okay, we aren't specifically told what the four reasons are unless I missed it.

Whereas 'For reasons I told you lies...' - well it doesn't mean anything!


On another note - it really is 'Fine chilling mime' - WTF?  :lol:

Nah, they can't be right.
For Saline, it says "Leaving be" where we've already determined beyond a shadow of a doubt that it's "Kevin bee" (aka "Kevin, my love" from No You No Me).


As for Four/For reasons...

It makes sense as "for", because "For reasons, I told you lies" is merely an alternative way of saying "I told you lies for reasons". The reasons are unspecified.
As "Four reasons", it makes sense, too, although to make it clearer I think it needs punctuating differently and adding some numbers that are whispered so quietly you can't hear them:
Four reasons: (1.) I told you lies
Four reasons: (2.) why we won't touch eyes
Four reasons: (3.) unsatisfied
Four reasons: (4.) always there inside

Well, that's my take on it. Make of it what you will.

Dear Dead Days lyrics are clearly a different version, but still cool to see nonetheless. It helps clear up some confusion on the real lyrics too, because I can see how they've evolved from these  :)

Will you be updating the wiki then based on the new 'official' lyrics? We need an complete correct source, dammit!

Sorry to revive this but I can't get this to open in preview on Mac. It tells me I need to download Adobe PDF reader.. something I really don't want to do. It was a god awful program on Windows and I don't expect it to be any better on Mac.

Suggestions?

I just got the same thing, which is annoying to say the least.  try a right-click "save file as.."

no, wait.  that didn't work, either.  what is this vile pdf that has been foisted upon us?
 :evil:

You make a PDF with Adobe Pro, you try and open it in something that isn't Adobe Reader, it'll make you download it or no PDF for you, apparantly.

I f**king hate adobe.

Now then, you can call me stupid or something (no, don't all rush at once) but what's so awful about Adobe reader?
Adobe Pro - I'll grant you - is a counterintuitive and bloaty piece of poo; but the reader is pretty much essential for modern web browsing (isn't it?).  All the datasheets I refer to daily are pdfs; many of them simply scanned from old catalogues.

Without wishing to sound trollish, Is this just a mac-based superiority thing?  :?

Edit:
And trying to be helpful... I tried using Openoffice to open pdfs but although it writes them quite happily, it won't even open what it's just written (without breaking it)

Adobe Reader takes forever to open, its just as bloated, and whats the point when Mac's come with Preview, which is perfectly capable of opening (And creating!) PDF's?
Title: Re: EIMA lyrics now in TOYS section

I don't mind Reader, but the fact that it won't let me open a pdf with the pdf program of my choice is just rude.
