* "A Beautiful Place" may reference the Third Eye Blind song "Horror Show" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gmISve9wTqw) which has the lyrics, "I'd shoot there in a second, just for the breathing space I'd put the punks on the moon, for head room mods rule the Galaxy. And that's the way, I think things should be. A Creep in you is a Creep in me. The gravity pushes down like a lie. We want wild sex but we don't want to die. We're the bait in a horror show." SR may be about how Keith Moon put goldfish in his transparent drum kit one time (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WPKGidTdyds) and the general fur/meat culture associated with Mods. The sunshine recorder would be the drum with water inside, and the "blinding of the third eye" of sunlight shining through the eyeball may be a reference to staring at the sun too long/Pi.
