“Perpetual Emotion” depicts the 5th of 22 meanings of the word “Love”, of which most are either incompatible with the others or inherently self-contradictory. The work evinces that self-eviscerating state of constant emotional excitation known as “being in love” which, as G.B.Shaw astutely noted, leads to a “state of temporary insanity” in which the application of rational thought is impossible. Fast chromatic passages are propelled by urgent guitar chords, and self-propagating phrases are hurled around with decreasing regard for either form or structure (though the latter are sufficiently indicated to show what is being disregarded).
