husker du's second album, metal circus, contains one of the most disturbing, and haunting, rock songs i've ever heard. diane. that's the name of the song. its frightening for the same reason henry portrait of a serial killer is frightening- it gives us a glimpse into the skewed mind of a killer. and i think, like henry portrait of a serial killer, its all the more frightening because the human longing that the killer is crushed under is the same most of us experience.
