This song is about a fresh outlook on life (perhaps). I heard the lines "And there's a new man at the edge of me
It's crazy
Making new plans for the rest of me" is about Gary Numan...who was heavily influenced by the Foxx era Ultravox. I'm not sure that's true but you can certainly here the influence of Ultravox in Numans early recordings and the Gary Numan influence in the song Miles Away. This song features some soaring synthesizers which became and still is a John Foxx trademark. Check out 'The Pleausres Of Electricity' for more cool electro from one of its pioneers.
