Inspiration/Influence/Band Comment | ||
"A
killing jar is a device used by butterfly collectors to contain and
ultimately kill their specimen. The use of the word killing jar in the
song is used as a metaphor for controlled violence. An emotional
relationship snuffed out until it is merely a prized possession or keep
sake."
John Fowles The Collector |

"..is trying to remember what its like when you are a child - its a bit cinematic and it reminds me of films like 'Funhouse' or Hitchcock's Strangers On A Train, with the carousel at the end." (Siouxsie). Source: BSIDE 02/89. | ||

"Eureka's a big part of it, I love that film. That song's about imagining adornment, intoxication. I wish people were more exotic with one another. I was flicking through The Koran, a book there called Ornaments Of Gold, saying "Don't look for riches on earth, you'll get them in Heaven", which is just keeping people who've got nothing content. The song is saying why not have both!" (Siouxsie). Source: NME 1988. | ||

"The song is deliberately rich. It's about Shostakovitch, a really sad man, who was victimised, ridiculed and then broken by the Stalin regime. I love his music, really powerful. The song's about wishing you could be a consolation to him" (Siouxsie). Source: NME 1988. | ||
