- Hunter was not the narrator first of all, and he was not accurate in his writings, no matter how much I respect and follow the late Thompson, his journeys and travels were fabricated as a form to meet his own expectations.
- Thank you.
- Yes, I believe it's an execution in Vietnam during the war.
- Talking about the Viet execution.... Fucked and two-sides-d........ Sometimes I do not know how to feel....
- What I cannot believe is that people asking if that is real.... Yea that shit is real ... Governments usually serve themselves...SAD
- I love that you know that..... Peace buddie
- Narrator in this song is Hunter S. Thompson - the most accurate journalist ever...
- no the speaker is a preacher (or sth like that, I do not know the word in english) who is having a vision and he is saying it in the street
- A member of the band wrote It for a movie he was going to create, but the movie was scrapped, and the monologue ended up in this song instead. :)
- Does anyone know where the spoken part of the song comes from? Is it a previously published piece, or was it written for the album?
- The car's on fire, And there's no driver at the wheel. And the sewers are muddied with a thousand lonely suicides. And a dark wind blows. The government is corrupt, And were on so many drugs with a radio on and the curtains drawn. We're trapped in the belly of this horrible machine. And the machine is bleeding to death. The sun is falling down,
- Amazing truely amazing , great job.
- Cheers mate.
- It was actually a south vietnamese police chief that shot a Viet Cong captain in Saigon.
- I think his name is Nguyen van Lem, the guy that's getting shot.
- Yes that's real, it was during the vietnam war. The shooter was an NVA officer and the guy that shot i think was south vietnamese or maybe they just suspected him of helping the americans.
- 2:33 is that fucking real? Please reply.
- this is beyond anything else i have ever heard. incredible.
- The car is on fire, there's no driver at the wheel. And the sewers are moneyd with a thousend lonely suicides. And a dark wind blows. The goverment is corrupt, And there are all curtains with a radio on it. We're all trapped in a horrible machine, And the machine is bleeding to death. Intro text! yay! (i know it's not good ;))
- my comment was supposed to be an answer to a previous comment. Not a LOL on fuckgothsemos... one. Sorry for bad english it was not on purpose
- Well, A Silver Mt. Zion contains some of the members of Godspeed. To say it's their other group is a simplification. Both are totally fuckin' awesome though!
- LOL
- I have to admit. This is pretty much gayer than AIDS.
- The album leaf Sigur Ros Roots of Orchis A Silver Mt. Zion (which is Godspeeds other group)
- Put those niggers in a cage!
