K’s Choice – Everything for Free (album: Cocoon Crash 1998)

This next song is by the Belgian Rock band K’s Choice. The lead singer has a fantastic voice. I was working in a record shop when they have just released this song. I listened to it all the time, play it in the shop all the time. People started to get sick of it at some point so I had to stop. It was probably the best job I’ve ever had. Listening to records all day long and get paid for it. How cool is that?

Quite a sad song about a guy in a mental institution. I thought it would be a great change for my blog, a song that is not about drug abuse. Although I heard about a few people that travelled to India and took some mushrooms and gone completely mental and end up in an institution so here we go again... I actually worked with a guy that his son took a mushroom and now he is a complete schizo.  Met the guy, he is screwed for life and this is all thanks to the wonders of curiosity...if you don’t know something and you heard it might do you damage – Do Not Touch It!!! Pretty simple isn’t it?
Check it out this song that I like...

Lyrics: Everything for Free Lyrics



What’s this song about?
I couldn’t find the meaning on the web but some guy wrote a comment on the video in YouTube and I strongly agree with his interpretation of the lyrics.
“The song is about a man who's being held in a psychiatric hospital.
He suffers from a mental illness and he tells his story In the end (the last paragraph) he repeats what he have said in the beginning, which symbolize his illness” (Ofir YouTube) “
