That was one of my favorite tracks on the album. I figured it was about a drowning but I'd forgotten that one of his previous wives had drowned in a swimming pool back in 1999.
It seemed a bit out of place on the album and I was wondering why he included it. It didn't dawn on me until a couple of days ago, after something jogged my memory, that it was about his wife.

I don't have as much to say about this one as I thought I would.

Basically, it's a bunch of songs that, musically speaking, work on the level of mere genre-templates. It's all very professionally handled, but also completely faceless and uninteresting. Add to that the pointless, dramatically awkward rambling of Mr. Shatner and you have a pretty ****ing lame album.

It sucks. That's about it.

Voted "disliked".

That's right. No fun allowed. This week's pick is miserable and you will sit down and listen to the whole turgid, depressing thing and you're not allowed to enjoy it. We can't have people like Shatner running around, disturbing the monastic propriety of the album club.

He should have picked The Transformed Man. Now that was classic camp :laughing:
