| Probably I;m wrong but... About a girl who wanted fame and didn't get it? Think the American Dream... going to Hollywood to become an actress, failing? Just an idea... | |

| I don't know what the significance of this is, or if the Joyce reference is referring to an old song of Irish background, but in Ulysses I regarded the following passage as being referenced in this song: THE MOTH: I'm a tiny tiny thing Ever flying in the spring Round and round a ringaring. Long ago I was a king Now I do this kind of thing On the wing, on the wing! Bing! (HE RUSHES AGAINST THE MAUVE SHADE, FLAPPING NOISILY) Pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty petticoats. Interesting? Eh? | |

| i heard recently luke changing the words to. "dont go to hollywood" so maybe he is still hurt by katie trying it out in hollywood and it not working out. and therefore things between them two really got messed up. | |

| wow... that reference is quite wierd. The song otherwise i think is about the whole fame aspect, and him adviceing against it, saying how it just uses females (which it generally does) | |

| on the acoustic album luke says he doesn't really know what this songs about and he supposes it's just about getting abused. But it seems pretty obvious to me that it's about katie melua. | |

| cracking song. i agree with wookie, katie melua is lead singer's ex, and my hunch is "ooh-la" is a thinly veiled disguise of "melua"...but then im often wrong! | |
