| − | === Albums === | + | the "eden eye"reference seems to check William Blake's theories on vision, perception, observation, the structure of heaven and the eye (see diagram in the sleeve notes between Twiggy and the Tarot card of the Hierophant). Sounds almost as though it was meant for Mechanical Animals - maybe it's intended to hark forward to that one - with its sad, elegiac tone and references to the loss of heaven and the failure of love, plus this album's first visit from Coma White. |
