Oh my GOD I fucking loveeeed that album!! I was also like 11-12 when I was into it. I wanna go back and relisten, ill bet its still a banger. And the sapphic thing...Are you me? Lol
Huh, I wonder how common of an experience this actually is...
Ok so its subjective obviously but its still a great album, I have it on vinyl and it is a glorious experience when listened to on bigass speakers. Now, the meanings of the songs have changed so much for me over the past couple decades or so, Posession hits WAY different when you realize that its written from the perspective of a stalker. I listen to "Mary" as a sequel to Bruce Springsteen's "The River". There are a bunch of things that tie the two songs together and I like the idea that Mary got to take back control of her life some years after getting knocked up by her dumbass boyfriend when she was 18.
