What Brian has said live before playing this song: "This is song about being gay, on drugs and goth in Luxembourg." Luxembourg 1999

"I lived in Luxembourg for a number of years. Take my word for it, don't go to Luxembourg, just drive through. This song's about being in the wrong place at the wrong time."

"A long, long way from here is a place called Luxembourg. And there lives a very very sad guy. This is a song about being in the wrong place at the wrong time."

From an article (The life and loves of a he/she-devil - Select, April 1997): "It's been a long day and, at the end of it, Placebo have decided to ditch their mime artists. Brian Molko is much relieved and takes this as a cue to talk about Placebo's next direction. He's just written a song called 'Burger Queen' - about being a gay goth heroin addict in Luxembourg.

"It's really the worst you could ever be. A goth, gay and on smack in the worst place, Luxembourg. It's so sad.""
