Despite what it may sound like, this song is about a city in east London, Canary Wharf... it was supposed to have been a major business section, but economics took care of that. It was adorned with all kinds of artificial foliage... It reminds me so much of Jeff Buckley when I hear it... I figure he had to have an influence, somewhere.
One of their best, for sure... and proof of the power of interpretation.
