This song brought tears to my eyes the first time I heard it. I never have been a big fan of Better Then Ezra but after I heard this song my whole opion changed on them. I love how this song represents how sometimes goodbyes can be a new hello.

    ------ About the song Our Last Night performed by Better Than Ezra

The parting of ways. There many ways that happens and we've all had to part ways in some way. This song is also full of nostalgia and brings to my mind thoughts of a happy place and time passed since. It is more poingant now that the gentleman who made sure we had a great time each summer just passed away and I been flooded w memories to which this song is my soundtrack.


What REM song? | Reviewer: Nyx
    ------ About the song A Lifetime performed by Better Than Ezra

At Better Than Ezra website in their FAQ’s many people have wondered the same thing, here is their statement:

In the song "Lifetime", the lyrics reference an R.E.M. song. What song are they talking about?
Kevin has been asked this question before and his response has been that it’s a general REM song reference. Fans have guessed that it’s several possibilities: Perfect Circle, Shiny Happy People, Drive, Sidewinder Sleeps Tonite, etc .


great hook and fun- but serious meaning? | Reviewer: lisa
    ------ About the song Juicy performed by Better Than Ezra

I loved this song the first time I heard it, purely from the music and "juicy" because I couldn't understand the lyrics at all. After reading them over a few times, my first guess would be that it is about a guy who gets with a woman "got with someones date" got found out "you're like a soap opera cover" and now the woman he's with is into certain self-pleasing items. I think the rest of the song is a light commentary on it- like it makes these characters or society as a whole break down- "children...don't get enough to eat...dishes fly.." Like the priorities are messed up and relationships get strained. I don't know if this is even close to what they meant, but it's all I can come up with- any ideas?


I thought it was this REM song. | Reviewer: Hannuh
    ------ About the song A Lifetime performed by Better Than Ezra

I honestly thought of the song "Losing My Religion" to be the song he sang about. I don't know if that's right, but it sort of fits the song. 3:30 minutes might just be what fit, next to what actually happens. And you can tell that he added in personal expierences due to Sheep's answer. Idk. Check it. Love the song. Love Ezra :) My brother looks a lot like the lead singer. Lol.


my interpretation | Reviewer: John
    ------ About the song A Lifetime performed by Better Than Ezra

I thought the song was a lighthearted one about a young man's first sexual encounter when I first heard it. It wasn't until I saw the lyrics written out that I realized there could be other interpretations. Either way, it's a great song with interesting lyrics and a captivating melody.

Gardening At Night | Reviewer: ed
    ------ About the song A Lifetime performed by Better Than Ezra

This is the only R.E.M. song that is exactly 3:50. Hard to feel that this would be the song that 2 people would be having a magic moment with singing along but hey....I'm sure each generation has their own...look at most Nirvana songs.


One More Murder | Reviewer: Lidia aka:AmericanBeautyX
    ------ About the song One More Murder performed by Better Than Ezra

    ------ About the song A Lifetime performed by Better Than Ezra

Ezra fans may get the most excited about the album's first single, "A Lifetime", which features Griffin incorporating a legendary rock'n'roll story into elements of his own life. "Being a writer, it's liberating to know you can create characters and circumstances in your songs," says the frontman. "But on 'A Lifetime,' I take a bit of a personal story, and then embellish it." The song, an epic pop-rock ballad following the aftermath of a friend's death, actually takes its plot from the death of legendary country-rocker Gram Parsons. "Gram's tale is just a great, romantic rock'n'roll story," says the singer. "His friend stole his funeral casket from LAX and took it down to 29 Palms and set him on fire as the sun came up ... and that's where I got the story of some friends stealing their friend's urn, and honoring the girl's true wishes, and going out to the beach one morning and listening to this REM song they used to listen to growing up as the sun was coming up. It was a way to make something both personal and dramatic."
