LASTFM LINK TO H.
i haven't rated any music as the process of rating is totally subjective and its impossible to encompass a song into a qualatative rating. the process is also useless to me, as my music taste changes. i don't like songs that i've listened to over 1000 times (source). But H. is a song that i'd rate 9.5 or even 10 out of 10. it is SO emotional!
all instruments contribute to a grungy, ominous vibe. maynard's voice is so tender and conveys so much emotion (write the emotion that hes maynard's feeling) without having to be extreme in his volume. the pitter patter of the drums through out are just truely amazing (in the verse). I love the space that holds between the crashes.
the section from 3:28 - I DONT MINDDDDDD has to be my favorite section of the song. the elasticity of the guitar and persistant pitterpatter of the drums adds so much atmosphere. again his voice is SO emotional.
i've listened to this song hundreds of times, and im not sure what it's about.
there are several different meanings that i think work, but none of them can be applied and work across the entire span of the song.
