	Nice song, good melody. It's a 'light and easy' song, and very short imho. When I read the lyrics I thought this might be a sort of follow-up for No Doubt's song "Tragic Kingdom". This is not really about a king in his lost kingdom, but about a relationship that's over or something like that. Although the songs differ very much, they fit together :)

	this is my favourite EELS song so far. i too wish i had someone who'd run away with me to somewhere safe and distant from whatever's not going my way..
