OH! GRAVITY
Ok, it's time for my Oh! Gravity review. It came out on Christmas day (aka: it was pre-ordered for my little self on Christmas day) and was one of the best Christmas presents a kid like me could get. I've debated weather or not to make the statement I'm about to make for a while, but I realized a few things tonight that clinched it for ( Read more... )

Ya, Oh! Gravity took a while. I wasn't really sure where it was all giong and if he was just being random on purpose, but I think Oh! Gravity is about a lot of things. He gives us a lot of different "snapshots" of fractures in our society. I think the first verse describes racism and hopelessness. He paints the picture of a homeless and perhaps drunk girl in the back of a car waiting until morning, because she has no where to go. The whole terrorism thing doesn't come in until the "red bite" verse. I just see it in the fact that he's in the back of the pentagon, he hates us and "Whatch the headline the next night." I think he's also talking about them when he says, "Sons of my enemies." He's sort of questioning the hate there. "Why can't we keep it together?" "We're connected."
His point hangs in the chorous though...but my favorite is the "Color bar" thing. They used to have color bars when black people couldn't go in places that white people couldn't. I love how he used that.
