the father

I saw it as revolutionary. Because the theme of song, delicate and terrible, is so easy ignored. Because it reminds the symbolism/ absence of father figure in many families, the routine or indifference or polite refuge in his world . And because it does it in charming - ironic way. Seductive and just cool. A warning, a portrait, reference to the 1960 years and , in essence, a very useful cry.
