I am Jean Luc Godard's Contempt

There is this rather mediocre song by Lagwagon that goes just like this:

I hate my friends
I hate my friends
I hate my
I hate my
I hate my
I hate my
I hate my friends
I hate my friends
[...]
I hate my friends
[...]
I hate my
I hate my
I hate my
I hate my
I hate my
I hate my
I hate my
I hate my
I hate my friends
I hate my friends
[...]
I hate my
I hate my
I hate my
I hate my
I hate my
I hate my
I hate my
I hate my friends
[...]

I take back the mediocre, I actually kind of like it.

I want to to stop trying to explain myself so thoroughly. I'll say something, let someone else figure.

In the beginning of verse part of Failure there is a harmonic that plays in only the left channel. It really rocks and fits perfectly. They play the same verse part twice more and omit the harmonic. I always wish they would play it again. It would make the song more interesting; give it more texture. I have always wanted to tell someone that.
