Why Three Legged Dog by The Bengsons is a DL!Pearl song, an essay
hello, people of tumblr. i propose to you this.
i will be touching on the following points throughout this essay:
the dog metaphor
the dependency of another person
various other lyricism examples
the vocal quality
1. The Dog
if you cant tell, this song is called three legged dog. the singer, abigail, talks about being a dog caught in a trap (could be interpreted as the life series, or the specific soulmate aspect. more on that later). there isnt much more to it. shes a dog caught in a trap, and shes gonna chew off her foot to get free.
2. The Trap
her soulmate, scott, left her. and she never got over it, no matter how hard she wanted to, thanks to the soulmate mechanic. she was left hurt and stranded, forced to make do with the situation she found herself in.
now for some lyrics:
When we met, I broke in pieces And half of me went into you When you go, my shards will scatter Half of me is dying too
this is peak double life pearl. absolute peak double life pearl. she lost part of herself seeing scott and cleo team. she actively hurt herself, just so scott would hurt too. but in that, the same applies. when scott gets hurt, so does she.
I'm supposed to just keep walking I'm supposed to just move on No, I can't breathe without him l'll be nothing, yeah, I'1l be nothing yeah Oh when he's gone, when he's gone
she makes it her mission to mess with scott. she practically goes insane messing with scott. shes stuck like glue to him, even when he kept brushing her off for someone else.
l'Il be a pile of salt I'll be a river of salt
same as before: she doesnt get over his betrayal. at all. she holds that grudge- she holds lots of grudges- until the end of the line.
3. Other Lyrics
if im being honest, for these i dont have reasons. take them as they are. they fit.
I'm a dog in a trap I'm gonna chew off my foot And leave it behind Leave it behind in the ashes and in the soot
kinda fitting. you see it right.
I can't do it anymore I'm not strong enough for this I never, I never said that I could Well I can't I can't I can't I can't I can't I Can't I can't I can't I can't I'm sorry
more on this in the fourth section.
I could leave this pain, I could leave this pain behind I could leave this behind Erase, erase my mind, I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna rip my flesh I'm gonna, I'm gonna set myself Free! Free...
4. The Delivery
abigail is an incredibly talented vocalist. the track begins with her singing in a rather reserved way, but once she starts talking about the pain of the trap, the intensity picks up.
i would love to note the delivery of "i'd be a three legged dog." she says it three times in a row, and each has its own emotion. the first is ruefully factual, the second is the weight settling in, the third is cracking under the pressure.
and then comes the "i can't do it anymore" lines. theyre delivered in a way where you can hear the pain shes going through. its almost difficult to listen to because of how raw they are. they only get more unhinged when the other party is mentioned, such as the "half of me is dying, too" line.
she sounds desperate to "leave this pain behind," especially in the "erase, erase my mind" line (one of my favorites). and once she does, theres a moment of pause. the acknowledgement that she set herself free in one way, but part of her remains stuck.
thus, the "i'm supposed to just keep walking" lines, all the way to the end. shes still so bitter to the person who did this to her. she laments becoming a three legged dog, though it gave her freedom.
overall, one of my favorite vocal performances of all time.
and with that, my essay concludes. thank you for reading 🫡

5, 19, 20 for the song ask?
5:A song that needs to be played LOUD
100 Days by the Bengsons. It starts almost soft but listen to it as loud as you can while driving on empty roads and when Abigail absolutely WAILS at 3:10 your soul will transcend your body.
youtube
19:A song that makes you think about life
Up There by Isobel Knight. I don't know if this is so much about life as how life felt growing up in a small town far from everything. There's something about the lines And autumn starts in February/ I don’t find huntsman spiders scary that just feels like exploring the bush outside home as a kid.
youtube
20:A song that has many meanings to you
I really struggled with this one because there aren't a lot of songs I love that don't have a specific connection to and I NEARLY went for You in Everything by Gang of Youths, but eventually it had to be the Phantom of the Opera overture which is both a banger of a song, buzzes my drama side and is also my connection to the first deep fandom I dove into.

The hundred days band
Tumblr media
Melissa Kaitlyn Carter and Dalane Mason are appealing as Sarah's best friend and Will's father. Wiry, boyish and impassioned singer Jo Lampert is outstanding as Will's best friend Max. White in song and Joe Goode's subtle choreography. The two exercises you chose are standing dumbbell hammer curls and standing calf raises. You have a desk job and can only do exercises in the morning and at night so you pick the first method. One morning in the spring of S.1192, a band of. In that time they honed their song writing skills and made two albums and two EPs which enjoyed excellent reviews. Let's say you want to use the 100 rep-a-day program for your biceps and calves. The Hundred Days War originated in Hamel, a small town in south Erebonia near the border with Liberl. Since its inception, the band's line-up has consisted of Eddie Vedder (lead vocals), Mike McCready (lead guitar), Stone Gossard (rhythm guitar) and Jeff Ament (bass). Under the name of X-teller they constantly played gigs across the south of England for five years. Pearl Jam is an American rock band formed in Seattle, Washington, in 1990. The husband-and-wife Bengsons embody the couple with full-throated, eclectic vocals and engaging spontaneity, shadowed by Amy Lizardo and Reggie D. Hundred Days Biography In 2002 four friends got together to form a rock band. "Days" is the story of Sarah and Will, newly met, newly married and facing his sudden diagnosis of terminal cancer (delivered with hair-raising playfulness in "Creature"). The story still needs work, particularly the ending, and the songs performed will vary from the list in the program, but Abigail Bengson's gripping, chilling, exhilaratingly wild and heartrending "Three Legged Dog" solo alone - the plaint of a woman facing life without her husband - is a must-see. With Each Transaction 100 Verified And The Largest Inventory Of Tickets On The Web, SeatGeek Is The Safe Choice For. That may be a good reason to see it more than once, given the magnetic vitality of the music and the extraordinary talent onstage. However, this album reminds me the most the creativity of. As lead producer, Z Space's Lisa Steindler told the opening-night audience, the world premiere - co-presented with Piece by Piece Productions and Encore Theatre - is still something of a work in progress, with changes to be made throughout the run. One Hundred Days, most of the creativity behind The Awakening isnt necessarily my favorite band. Occasionally, small bodies of soldiers passed. That's not just because the transience of life and love is the theme of the dynamic indie-folk rock musical that opened Saturday at Z Space. Again, a band of Polytechnic scholars, always popular with the mob, would be cheered as they hurried onward.

We’ve been okay, are you okay? Are you alright, are you okay? Are you alright, are you okay? I hope your body is whole tonight. And if your heart is breaking, I hope it’s breaking open, and if your breath is shaking, I hope it’s shaking through. And I hope that you’ve watched a lot of really great television...
This is the keep going, keep going on song... 
The Keep Going Song, from the Bengsons. It’s helped me this week and now I am offering it to you.
