The lyrics of the song right at the end sound a bit random ... nice song though! ;D I wonder what it's about? So awesome that we got to hear so many different snippets.  That's what I loved about them Spud  ..so different and intriguing! Cannot wait to hear the whole song, it sounds gorgeous! Snippets!! More snippets!!   |

After listening to the Video blog a few times, I am wondering if the last song is about a Mannequin??? I could be way off though... Thoughts? The lyrics of the song right at the end sound a bit random ... nice song though! ;D I wonder what it's about? So awesome that we got to hear so many different snippets. That's what I loved about them Spud ..so different and intriguing! Cannot wait to hear the whole song, it sounds gorgeous! Snippets!! More snippets!! |

This is what I hear from the last song...
"Standing for all to see
the plastic man...
dressed in clothes he didn't choose to wear..
Spends his years in shopping malls
and clothing stores..
Glanced upon by people on the way.."
Sounds like a Mannequin? Yes? Maybe? Way off?

Hadn't thought of that Carla- but it makes perfect sense! I love the randomness too- adds some variety... This is bloody brilliant!

Yeah, really intriguing lyrics on this one. ;D maybe it's about GI Joe? or Ken Doll? or Chucky!   ;D ;D ;D Lovin these video blogs ALOT! ;D ;D ;D and agree Carla it's so nice to see DLO mentioned again! ;D Braffy, I'm sure that was just a typo of Damiens too with his name and was probably just in a rush to get it up for us all to look at. What a sweety he is!  This album is going to be AMAZING!! Hurry up August!! |

This might be a bit left of centre, but that "mannequin" song may not be about the mannequin itself, but rather the original model..ever noticed how they all look the same? Maybe D's reflecting on what it's like to have your image duplicated and found all over the place??? :)Whatever his intentions, I love how it sounds!
AND AUGUST CANNOT COME FAST ENOUGH!! These blogs are so awesome..and more next week! SQUEEEEEEEEE!!! |

OK, I'm loving the sound of the song in the end credits....it has a little Radiohead-esque feel about it  And from the couple of lines we have heard, my I suggest its not about a mannequin but an Australian Idol winner? Think about it..... |

Yeah Rox, I agree, I just thought it was funny. It is unusual to have a typo with your own name though so I thought someone else may have put it on.

I see where you are all coming from. I didn't think the entire song would have been about a plastic mannequin, but perhaps a metaphor for something else!! Roxy and I had a chat about this, and perhaps this verse is one of many, which is part of a bigger picture?
