Spiraling Shape - They Might Be Giants
It’s going to snow here today. A few inches. Enough to coat the ground, cover the trees, and make a mess of the roads. I love driving in the snow. Alone, lost in the swirl of white, shuttling through the dark, enclosed in my capsule of a car, just me and the music. The music makes it better. Bearable. An adventure. I have a handful of favorite albums that always remind me of driving in snowstorms, and Factory Showroom is one of them.
This song is a great “lose yourself” song. It was featured in the Kids In The Hall movie Brain Candy. I love how it’s psychedelic, driving, swirling, the exact combination of elements that make me feel like I will survive a trek through a snowstorm. I know I’ll make it out the other side, hypnotized, maybe, but certain that the music kept me from the downward spiral of worry in my mind.
Could I have done it without the music as a crutch? Oz never did give nothing to the Tin Man that he didn’t already have. What am I talking about? Am I still talking about snowstorms?
