My Bestest Friend



In this song, Verdell, in the spirit world, is talking to his bestest friend, Mogie, who's still alive. He is tryin' to tell Mogie to vandalize George Washington on Rushmore to make him look sad. Corky's there, too. They both try to get old Mogie on board with their plan.

I got the coyote sample from a recording my brother made.

 As usual, this is what last week's song sounds like when you turn it around backwards.

For anyone new to this blog, the album I'm discussing is based on the movie, Skins. (Spoiler Alert)... It follows this character, Corky Red Tail, into the afterlife cuz he gets murdered in the beginning of the movie. Then he's joined by Mogie and Verdell, who both die of alcoholism in one way or another. The three of them work together to try to get a message to Corky's mom that he's okay in the afterlife. The most likeliest candidate to do that is Rudy, Mogie's brother, because all three of them knew Rudy when they were alive, so they're all connected to him in one way or another.
