Product Description

"Water in the Sky contains several common Phish themes: perpetual evolution of the musical structure, nautical imagery, and lyrics open to widely varied interpretations. Water in the Sky is among the many songs that debuted on the summer '97 Europe tour (6/13/97, Dublin) that went on to form the basis of Story of the Ghost.

Water in the Sky lived for a little over a year as a traditional American country tune the kind of tune played in establishments such as the one in which the Blues Brothers found themselves encased by chicken wire. The down-home guitar twang and ostensibly romantic prelude to close the shutters, draw the shades is about as backwoods as a bunch of middle-class Northeast suburbanites can pull off with a straight face.

Though by one interpretation not difficult at all, if you subscribe to the notion that the song embodies the rather un-romantic notion of tuning somebody out. Those voices may indeed flutter through, but they face impenetrable opaque filters metaphorical walls built through the years of a relationship. In the end those fluttering voices are met with deaf ears watch them fall, and let them lie. Do those voices lie on the ground? Or lie to your face? A more charitable and optimistic interpretation suggests that the song reflects a bond between two people so concrete and unshakable as to be immune from even the most ubiquitous of natural forces that might interfere.
