I thought those voices were only in my head. That's why I never talked about them, in fear of being taken away.Isntthiswherewe wrote:What with all those blokes talking in the background its not a very well made album really is it.

Oh right! I also thought it was a mistake on the tape. I mean, the first few times I listened to DSOTM I didn't notice them. It is definitely one of the more subtle nuances on that album, all the loud ringing and ticking clocks. Oh, and it is a metaphore for time, as in the song Time? Thanks for that, I had totally overlooked that.

That's only an interpretation. It's not a hard fact, like the entire album being composed as the soundtrack for 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest'.my breakfast. wrote:Oh, and it is a metaphore for time, as in the song Time? Thanks for that, I had totally overlooked that.

I only said that about the blokes talking as a joke!
