Topic: "Struggle" - those whispers!?!? Return to archive

Saint Sway was listening to Keef's "Struggle" on headphones and trying to decipher some of the conversations that go on in the background.

Does anyone have any insight to what they are saying???

I can barely make out any of the first part - which comes during the bridge - sounds like they just keep repeating "its a struggle" and "drugs"

and then on the final seconds of the song it sounds like "it tightens up, it tightens up" and "your so beautiful"

Maybe......"it's a struggle quiting drugs"....

polytoxic Another tidbit: That's Tom Waits doing the mumbling.

Saint Sway well it certainly sounds like Tom Waits & Keith mumbling incoherently about... something

they sorta sound alike when speaking. Very gravely. Ivan Neville too. I'm sure he and Drayton & Co are on there as well

jeez... Waits & Richarrds.... imagine the cloud of smoke in that room!

gimmekeef We really need a "Keithsonian" Institute to keep track of all things of a Keith nature such as this.....
