	Listen to fishbear. Listen to more Talk Talk.

	The animal thing seems to be a good explanation of the song. The video for the song matches really well with that meaning, as it is mostly footage of animals. The video is actually pretty cool and very fitting of its time period. All that being said, I still the think the song also touches upon how humans interact with each other. Specifically how we have a tendency to impose our beliefs and tendencies on others.

	Jeez, this song just has an awesome sound to it, it always makes me feel like I'm experiencing another world. The lyrics? Well, I guess he's saying that "I am going to live my life and do what feels right. In the past I didn't take chances because I was too afraid to lose, but not anymore. After all, this is my life." I'm not real sure what this has to do about the relationship that he mentions just a bit. My guess is: as long as he is in in a relationship with her, he feels he is not getting what he wants out of life for some reason. The lyrics are kind of sparse anyway so it could be anything. Anyone want to elaborate?

	Heartbreakingly beautiful song from one of the best bands ever, Talk Talk. This song was recently murdered by Gwen Stefani and her cronies.

	It's true, and all makes sense if you watch the video. Mark Hollis is singing in front of footage of animals in a zoo, and during the chorus bars appear over his mouth.
