I found this song to be quite interesting. It is definitely very different from the previous songs I have listened to for this blog. First off, it is the first rock song featured and is the only track (so far) that has been recorded by a group and not a solo artist. This track sounds dark and very different from what is currently on the radio and topping the charts. Yet, it serves as almost a breath of fresh air among a clutter of love songs and dance tracks. 'Psycho' discusses an issue that many people in our society would prefer not to address. In the track the lead singer addresses the fact that he may be in fact be crazy and an actual "psycho". I was initially taken aback when I heard this and thought to myself, "who in the world would actually admit to themselves and others that they may be crazy". I found this a bit shocking and interesting at the same time. Perhaps this is no longer such a taboo topic and people are willing to admit to themselves that they may have a problem and seek help for themselves. If this were the case, then I believe, it would be a major step in our society.
The meaning of Psycho- informal a psychopath; a person suffering from chronic mental disorder with abnormal or violent social behavior
