Ok, the old Rolling Stone article was mentioned in another post - in regards to the meaning of "Black Balloon"
I hadn't read this article since it was published years ago... and I forgot how ridiculously hillarious it is...
I figured we could post our favorite parts of the article...
here's mine:
"Once, in 1995, they argued for fourteen hours in a Paris stairwell, drinking cheap red wine. When Takac adjourned to buy a new bottle, he drank it, immmediately threw it up, walked back into the shop and bought another bottle."

I think this is one of the most informative interview they ever did. I remember back while reading it for the 1st time ~ I got kinda choked up a couple of times. Does anyone know of any others that are better, or just as GOOd pls advise if so.....I'm in the mood for GOO storytime!
It's a great story. Anyone who hasn't read it I encourage you to go read.

I always liked this comment:
Quote: The irony was that, freed up by thinking he was writing about a movie character, he wrote a song which perfectly distilled the ideas and emotions that splish-splosh around many of his songs: the near impossibility of love in a difficult universe where people try to discourage your best impulses; the elusiveness of hope and freedom in a land of despair and rules; wanting to be understood in a world that always lets you down.

One, I think it is true. Two, it was refreshing to hear someone talk about John's songwriting instead of his hair.
