"On foot, or by the help of transportation..."

So I finally figured out what Royksopp's song "Remind Me" is all about. But hold up. Y'know that Geico commercial? The one with the caveman in the airport, standing on the moving walkway, carrying a tennis bag? Well, there's a song playing in that commercial, and that song is "Remind Me" by Royksopp. The song is a happy sounding one, but it's really a sort of strange, slightly sad song, and I thought it was interesting, so I'm going to talk about it. So the song is about this dude who was in England for a long time. He comes back home, pokes around a bit, and can't really remember why he wanted to come back so much. So, he travels across the city to where his friends live, only to discover that they don't actually live there anymore, a fact which he had forgotten while he was away. It's an interesting sort of lyric, even if it ends up being a bit glum.

This brings me to another point. There's a website called SongMeanings.net, and on this website, song lyrics are published, and users post comments about what they think the song means. Almost all of these comments are complete bull honkery. They start out in this fashion: "This song obviously contains deep meaning about relationships... blahblahblah, reading in metaphors, blahblahblah." They tried to turn "A-Punk" by Vampire Weekend into some sort of complicated love-saga! WTF, mate? Stop this nonsense! But, people on the internet will do what they will. Personally, I like to take songs at face value, as seen above.
