A Sense of Doubt blog post #2253 - "Lazy Eye" - Silversun Pickups - Musical Monday for 2104.18


I love this song, but I never fully understood the lyrics, which are amazing now that I read them.

So, today, just this.

But I will mention that this song is in my second school mix for the first day of class.

"Lazy Eye" 

Lyrics

by Silversun Pickups

I've been waiting

I've been waiting for this moment all my life

But it's not quite right

And this 'real'

It's impossible if possible

At whose blind word

So clear but so unheard

I've been waiting

I've been waiting for this silence all night long

It's just a matter of time

To appear sad

With the same old decent lazy eye

Fixed to rest on you

Aim free but so untrue

Everyone's so intimately rearranged

Everyone's so focused clearly with such shine

Everyone's so intimately prearranged

Everyone's so focused clearly with such shine

Locked and loaded

Still the same old decent lazy eye

Fixed through your gaze

That's why I said I relate

I said we relate

It's so fun to relate

It's the room the sun and the sky

The room the sun and the sky

I've been waiting

I've been waiting for this moment

Lazy Eye

Posted on September 30, 2014 by Sarqasim

I’ve been waiting
I’ve been waiting for this moment all my life
But it’s not quite right

Why did it take me, like 10 years to not know this band, SilverSun PickUps

SilverSun PickUps – Lazy Eye (2007)

Update: WordPress statistics tell me, that this blog post got almost 7,000 views since I posted it on 30th September 2014, making it my website’s most popular blog post. Apparently 90% of the traffic came from some silly Reddit feed about GTA V video game. So if you’ve stumbled upon this blog post cause some fool linked it on Reddit, stating that some useless female character in the game looks like, Sara Grace Powell (the girl above), then I hope you feel like you’ve accomplished a lot in your life (December 2015).

Lazy Eye (Silversun Pickups song)

"Lazy Eye" is the third single from Silversun Pickups' debut album Carnavas, written by lead singer and guitarist Brian Aubert. The band performed the song on the Late Show with David Letterman, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Later With Jools Holland, and Last Call with Carson Daly. The song is a playable track on Rock Band 2 and Guitar Hero: World Tour.

An alternate version of the song, with a length of 7:27, was played on XMU before the shorter version was played on FM and other XM channels. This version was featured on their demo CD (which featured early versions of four tracks).

Music video[edit]

The music video for "Lazy Eye" was directed by Suzie Vlcek and produced by Eric Morgan. Former band member, Kennedy, makes a cameo appearance in the video as a bartender and the band's original drummer, Elvira Gonzalez, makes a cameo appearance as a box office/door attendant.

The video received extensive airplay on MTV, MTV2, MTVU, VH1, Fuse, MuchMusic, MTV (Latin America), International Music Feed and many other international broadcast outlets. The popularity of the video led to the creation of a VH1 "Pop-Up Video" version.^[1] The "Lazy Eye" music video was among the MTV2 Subterranean "Viewers Top 20 Music Videos of 2007" list.^[2]

- Days ago = 2117 days ago

- New note - On 1807.06, I ceased daily transmission of my Hey Mom feature after three years of daily conversations. I plan to continue Hey Mom posts at least twice per week but will continue to post the days since ("Days Ago") count on my blog each day. The blog entry numbering in the title has changed to reflect total Sense of Doubt posts since I began the blog on 0705.04, which include Hey Mom posts, Daily Bowie posts, and Sense of Doubt posts. Hey Mom posts will still be numbered sequentially. New Hey Mom posts will use the same format as all the other Hey Mom posts; all other posts will feature this format seen here.
