"I think this is pretty self-explanatory. It's about blurry communication. The title is in tribute to Capt. Jean-Luc Picard of the Starship Enterprise. For no good reason." P. Dempsey @ www.somethingforkate.com |

So how come the sky is so blue? Exactly. Sometimes the worst shit can be happening and nothing seems to work and you can feel so so so low, and yet the sky is still a perfect shade of blue.  |

"The title is in tribute to Capt. Jean-Luc Picard of the Starship Enterprise. For no good reason." I'm not so sure about that Captain Dempsey. I think the song and the character can be linked. Y'see in the 7th movie Picard's brother and nephew burn to death in a fire which grieves him obviously, and he hears the line "time is the fire in which we burn". However, by the end of the movie he decides that time is not a predator but instead is a friend that guides us along way. So "the man on the tv said things'd be okay" is referring to Picard's change in attitude despite something horrific happening to him, because really, it's not okay, and things are not okay. The sky may be so blue but his family is still dead and it's not okay. That's his lament and the lament of everyone who realises that some things will stay carved in stone and it won't make you feel safe. Okay, I think I'm on to something..."I think this is pretty self-explanatory. It's about blurry communication." Uhh, it is?  |
