Die in the Summertime
I feel like this is a waste of a post since it's such an unimportant question but 'I wanna die in the summertime' how do you interpret that? I suppose the obvious conclusion is that that's the season the writer would like to die in but I always wonder if it's that season that makes the writer want to die, the band always spoke about how much they loathed summer in early interviews after all.

Yup - die young.........die when everything is still light and bright, before the metaphorical nights start closing in

There have been two things mentioned about it:
* Richey said it was about wanting to die 'a happy death', and that the is from the point of an old man reflecting on his life * Simon Price suggested, maybe cheekily, in Everything that the Manics literally hate summer and heat, so he thinks it's a possible meaning.

Is it true that the first time they played DITS live was Glastonbury 2003? Saw that stat on Setlist.fm. That can't be right surely?

Wonder what Richey would've made of summat like Rewind The Film, which I dare say, in my opinion, is their most beautiful album. Not that they typically do beautiful albums... Quote:
