Chevelle

This Type Of Thinking (Could Do Us In)

Vitamin R (Leading Us Along)

---

Vocals

I like the use of singing voice and screaming in this song. I wasn't sure about the higher parts when I first heard it. But with several listens I am wanting to sing along. That is a good sign!

Music

Works nicely with the vocals. Straightforward.

Lyrics

I like that this song is addressing this issue. I actually have ADHD myself. People have different ways of being, different ways of learning, different ways of coping. There is intense pressure in schools to do as everyone else. As soon as children hit school they are labelled as "bad" and in need of "fixing" if they don't fit the mold. I have many people in my life with ADHD and some had/have harder stories than others. Some have taken meds, some have not. They all seemed to have pressure to take meds as children.

It's typical, create a world
A special place of my design
To never cope, or never care
Just use the key cause

He's alone
(and he has become)
He's alone
(and he has become)

Well,…
