MalignantNarcissist Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 I never noticed the "world" references but now I will. I always thought Neil liked the word "like" in that he loves using similes in his poetry to express a visual to the listener. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iluvgeddy05 Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 QUOTE (MalignantNarcissist @ Apr 25 2008, 09:53 AM) I found a few times Neil has gone back to the well and came up with the word "like" when he was writing lyrics. I think this might be the most uses of the word "like" outside of the script to "Valley Girl"... It's called a simile. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
