isn't that supposed to be a lullaby for jack's kid?


could be, but that doesn't undermine the fact that it could be interpreted as a beautiful love song.

Ed said that it he interprets it two ways, either as a lullaby/love song or about a deranged stalker. After his recent comments about Lukin and his stalker situation, it seems fitting this was also from No Code.

Also, I never pictured Wishlist as a love song. A love song usually relates to two people, whereas Wishlist is just some lonely guy wishing he had love, wishing he had someone waiting for him to return from sailing alone in the world. (there are also 3 lines suggesting that he wishes he was famous... the grounds for 50 million hands upraised.. the star that went on top...radio song you turned up..)

So I will vote for Thin Air.

I voted for Smile, which barely edged out Parachutes. Tough call.

I agree. It is a love song. It doesn't matter if the subject is a child.

Anyway, I like these songs so it is hard. After hearing Parachutes live, I will go with that (just edging smile and the rest).

Parachutes is killer, folks. Such great lyrics.

I've never interpreted Wishlist as a song about being in love.
