Mama Black Widow

[FloatingDowntheLiffey]

I just noticed that the version of FM that appears on the album of the same name is tagged "Mama Black Widow Version." Doesnt the black widow devour her mate after sex? And if so, this makes for a clever summary of the theme of the song.

I hadnt noticed this before, but im sure everyone else probably has. Anyways, thought it was clever of jamie.

i think mama black widow is referencing the book of the same name by iceberg slim thats about the trannie/gay underground ghetto of chicago in the 50's/60's/70's. i havent read it in awhile but it's completely heartwrenching and an oft overlooked important piece of 'fiction'.
