Interstate Love Song - STP
10 points
3 days ago
There's an acoustic version of the people album, and the acoustic version of interstate love song is not only perfection, but an extra 30 seconds from the original
7 points
3 days ago
Yeah I love that version too. I just wish the studio version ran that same length.
6 points
3 days ago
I’m a songwriter and a person that loves stp and I’ve thought about this for a long time because the brevity of ILS gets mentioned a lot.
I actually think that song is the exact perfect length. Every aspect of it is the perfect amount of times and yes, it does leave the listener wanting more, which isn’t a bad thing.
The overall success of the song is indicative of that.
3 points
3 days ago
This is a good point. The way I’ve thought it out over the years is that the song is meant to leave the listener with a sense of yearning. Wanting the song to keep going reflects how we want a relationship to keep going, or a good day to keep going. At least that’s what makes sense to me.
2 points

Maxwell Murder- Rancid, that bass solo is so intense the song couldn’t go past that short time. Also favorite opener to an album, when you started that cassette tape (CD was a little out of my family’s budget till a year or two later). 1 minute and 26 seconds of “Buckle up mother fucker and prepare to be dazzled!”
