"Someday Never Comes" is simply a song about my parents undergoing a divorce when I was a child and me not knowing many things. When my dad left me, he told me to be a man and someday I would understand everything. Now, I'm here basically repeating the same thing really. I had a son in 1966 and I went away when he was five years old or so and again told him "someday" he would understand everything. Really, all kids ask questions like "Daddy, when are we going fishing?" and parents always answer with "someday", but in reality someday never comes and kids never learn what they're supposed to learn. -John Fogerty 1973

I think what gets me about this one is that it came out on an album that released 16 years after the start of his career, and 10 years after the height of his popularity. It's over 8 minutes long, so it was never set to be commercially successful.
This whole album is excellent...I may be biased though as I am a huge Matt Good fan(After MGB). I still feel Avalanche is one of the best albums I have ever purchased.
