Re: push downstairs
to me, it's like bringing the album full circle. i know only some of you are prog heads, but to me that's very important. for example, take the track 'dancing with the moonlit knight' by genesis:



and the last track on the album, 'aisle of plenty'.



the second song 'aisle of plenty' isn't really significant on its own, but without it the album would be incomplete. the same goes for push downstairs. to me, beaucoup fish sort of tells a story in music, with recurring themes and lyrics. i don't know what the story is about, but it feels like a musical journey, versus second toughest in the infants which really feels more like a collection of songs to me. all i know is that cups-push upstairs is dawn, kittens is the end of the sunset, and push downstairs is twilight. something like a mama and moaner are nighttime.
