Talking to Norwood. (The mad bass player from one of my favourite bands, Fishbone!) I'm gonna record with him again ... rock fans PLEASE STAND BY. Where are you, I asked? "Oh," he said, "I'm in France ..." Of course! Then he asked me to give the official definition of a phrase he made up, "Clear-a-Thrill." OK, here's the main meaning to me, in a nutt-shell:
Yes, it's crystal clear. "Clear-a-thrill" quite clearly means that some people are blocked (in their heads) and so we encourage them to "clear the way" for creativity/thrills/thagoodstuff to come in. Literally. Furthermore ...
"Clear-a-thrill" also means, simultaneously, that we must lose the guilt of our past thrills - this means we forgive ourselves for any and all nasty/dirty/mildly illegally/funnysquishy things we've done in the past - LOOK FORWORD and once again open ourselves up for the new thrills to come. Peace, -Todd Calico
