Re: Scott Walker
Just had to listen to Jesse
Not really my kind of thing but found this on the net which is pretty interesting along with some reference to 9/11 mentioned in a post somewhere
'Elvis Presley had a twin brother who died at birth, called Jesse. He would apparently often talk to his twin like he was there by his side and felt a lot of guilt that he'd survived while Jesse had died. The riff in the background is supposedly a distorted, skewed version of Jailhouse Rock and the line "I'm the only one left alive" is actually an Elvis quote as well as a pretty good idea of the sentiment about Jesse the song is trying to put out'.
