Thank God for Editors

I love the television show, 'House.'
(A-G-D-A-F-G)
I am a big fan of Sherlock Holmes, and besides the obvious ties to Holmes, House also has absolutely dynamite music.

By the way, SCORE is everything.
Do you think The Exorcist would have been scary without a soundtrack to match?
Turn the sound down on anything and you'll see how the impression it makes upon you diminishes.

So I do the fan-trivia move and google the band that did the theme for the show - The song is incredible.
Such a simple piece and yet it evokes deep feelings.
I do the requisite thing and buy the song.

I play the song - it's over five minutes long - not the thirty second clip we are treated to during the opening of the show.
And while I see what the sound editors did, I am still trying to pick my jaw from the floor.
Here is a portion of the lyrics:

Teardrop - MASSIVE ATTACK

Water is my eye
Most faithful mirror
Fearless on my breath
Teardrop on the fire of a confession
Fearless on my breath
Most faithful mirror
Fearless on my breath

Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath

I like to think that when I am pointed in the right direction I can enjoy what is hip.
I'm at a loss with this, however.

It's bad.
Worse than that, the "melody" is just the four steps and repetitious.
Clearly, not my cup of tea.

But the editors of the show performed some amazing aural surgery and salvaged a wonderful clip with which to showcase the program.
I bet this stuff would make Alanis Morissette blush.

(Did I just say that?)
