In the voicemail, the woman is saying: "Scott, where are you? Really. I need you, you know? I need you. And, um, I really cant wait to talk to you, so please call me, okay? Don't forget, okay? I love you. I miss you... so bad. Buh-bye." |

I think it's somewhat interesting that in an interview he did with a London paper during the tour for the self-titled album, Conor said that "Eagle on a Pole" was a song about infidelity... which was kind of when the rumors of him and Maria breaking up started to circulate. Now, this shows up on the following record. And (to me, at least) it's pretty clearly about someone being with a lot of different women while he has a steady girlfriend (or after a break up with a long-term girlfriend) and then her finding out... and him realizing he actually wants her back. I love the closing lines-- "It'll be like it's been if you come home again / those ten women have all gone away" Ha. |
