Keep your eyes wide open/ and my shotgun loaded/ 'cause I don't want to leave this heaven so soon...

This song, I'm convinced, is what it sounds like in Dennis Hopper's head, and it's really catching fire with me. I never really listened to the Screaming Trees, beyond their kick-ass contribution to the Singles soundtrack (one of the top soundtracks ever. I am not wrong about this), "Nearly Lost You". But I think hanging around with Dulli has rubbed off on Mark Lanegan, and you can especially hear it with that female singer: "I'll do it, daddy." Who else even tries to get away with something like that? It's a hell of a sexy song in an odd way.

Man, does he look like Tom Waits in that picture.
