In the video the man with fasting black lungs is seen pushing a cart full of chocolate and everybody flocks to him and takes his chocolate licking it off of their fingers and getting it all over their faces. The narrator also buys his drugs and usues them to escape the reality of his life. This seems most believable to me because a member of the mars volta died of a heroin overdose im not sure whether this was before or after this song was written tho but after he died the other members quit using opiates (just opiates). Also in other other songs such as cassandra gemini they sing about addiction. awesome | Reviewer: big d | 10/9/06 This is songwriting as it should be, even before I knew the words, I knew it was packed with emotional gravitas and was something I immediately related to. As with all great songs, it's about love. If you've experienced Love, and all that comes with it in its many guises - elation, loss of control, rejection, joy, sadness, - then this is the ultimate song for you. The old proverb says "it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all" The writer of "Widow" knows this all to well, as all of us who have loved and lost know. It grows on you like no song I have ever known - Bravo. I have no idea | Reviewer: mattman | 5/17/06 I think the song is about a lady the get hit frequently by her husband. She is a widow because the are not event lovers anymore. in a way she is alone. I think the song implies that A man Is hearing them fight in the night form the words i hear him every night. dang she needs help. dont let stuff like that happen to your friends or enemys call for help. Great Song | Reviewer: -Insert Lyrics Here- | 1/2/06 This is by far one of the greatest songs I have ever heard. "The Widow" Such a fitting title, Its mood, rythem, and use of words can be felt by anyone who understands its meaning. This song is a Great song. Thanks for reading! DAP question | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/9/05 is the singer a guy or girl....whats its name!?!?!?!?...really like the song Mars Volta, and the stuff beeing written | Reviewer: Per Sindre Larsen | 7/21/05 Mars Volta are great indeed. When it comes to "moody" music, like people earlier described it you should check out the band "Madrugada" too. Their album "Industrial Silence" is great, and if you like something abit "noisier" try their album "Grit". The Widow is wonderful. At THe Drive In | Reviewer: Anonymous | 5/17/05 This is a really good band. They used to be called At The Drive In. If you like this song check out the song "One Armed Scissor" Very dismal and strong. Still retains the Mars Volta voltage. | Reviewer: Nico | 3/26/05 very dark and strong in it's statement. I think it's aobut a woman who has an abusive husband who smokes clove and isn't dying fast enough from it. "... he just makes me warm" he only keeps me warm and nothing else. she cannot get rid of him becasue she wont leave him. Why? she has no answer, and has no shame. She is a Widow becasue she really has no happieness in her marriage, and she prays to the Lord for death. this is what the title inplies. Sick | Reviewer: Chelle | 3/12/05 I LOVE it!!! This song is a masterpiece! Deep and brilliant! | Reviewer: Drew | 3/11/05 Best song I've heard in a few years. Lots of textures, tortured lyrics, deep, soulful notes. Very impressive, I will definitely lokk at previous releases from this group. Add Your New Review About The Song By Pages:   1    2    3    4    5
