I saw them play "Limousine" a couple of years back and he looked absolutely broken throughout the song. Some of his behavior during a performance can be every bit as disturbing as some the lyrics, but (for me, at least) that's half the appeal.

I might give Daisy another listen but I was pretty shocked when I first heard it... I didn't even think it was brand new. Definitely true about Jesse live. When I saw them, he was sitting in the corner during the other sets acting weird. He seemed hammered and depressed to me. Just comes off as a weird dude.
