Talk:Four Of Two

From This Might Be A Wiki

Maybe I'm an idiot, but Four Of Two means 1:56 right? - Blitz

You're right, Blitz, about the 1:56 part. I'll need more solid evidence of any idiocy, though, to make a judgement on that. ;)

I found some pictures of the clock in question. Here it is before installation, sticking out of the side of the building, and another shot. - Kassi

[edit] Be-Four of Two?

I used to own a creepier and definitely non-kids' version of this song about...hmm...ten years ago. Let's call it a demo. Mr. Narrator of this "Four of Two", which takes place wholly in his bedroom, ends up choking himself to death to "break the chain of inactivity" and, once he's dead his eyes "continue to stare at the clock on the wall, and it still said four of two". I love it. Pretty much all accordion. The cassette (ca-what?) I had it on died at some point--I really love that incarnation (more so than the No! go) and would love to hear it again. Does anyone know where I could get a copy? --RonAmoriM 22:25, 21 Nov 2005 (EST)

Wait, that link's busted. Uh... I have it, I can get it to you soon. -Ecks

Awesome. I really appreciate it. --RonAmoriM 23:19, 22 Nov 2005 (EST)

[edit] About the interpretations

I assure you that the girl in both versions was merely waiting for the clock to be fixed and going again so that she can go and meet the narrator. I think she wasn't mean.

I don't buy that at all. I mean, how would she know when it was going to be? Why wouldn't she, you know, have made the plans by a clock that wasn't broken? Isn't that a lot less confusing? I MAINTAIN THAT SHE IS A TOTAL BITCH. SHE IS STANDING UP JOHN LINNELL. JOHN FUCKING LINNELL. (Yes yes, I am aware that it is a fictional song, don't mind me...) --Self Called Nowhere 11:34, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
