===Influences===
It can be argued that the song is heavily infuenced by the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Mer_(Debussy) Debussy piece of the same name]. Both songs build up to create a sonic atmosphere, and both are (obviously) titled the same.
When asked about any classical composers who have inspired him, Trent said in a Yahoo! Chat in December 1999:
<blockquote>Debusey. I was sitting in Big Sur, losing my mind. His contribution was that you need to be regimented, with whatever you decide to do. When I was sitting there, Debussey and I had a mind meld for a second. I felt the need to plagiarize the title, "La Mer." He revolutionized the Mozart bullshit world of everything was rigid and stabilized.</blockquote>
