A compilation between Dido and Wainwright offers a nice piece of easy-listening music, perfect for wasting away evenings
Not much depth into the song, however, it is easily compensated by underlying tones of poverty and desire for equality. (Maybe an insight into his beliefs). In the song, Rufus exclaims that when the hunger is gone (i.e. in 3rd world poverty) is the time that allows him to no longer feel guilty about the wealth of western supercountries. Before that time will come (i.e. the debt is repaid) we have to cover and submerse our guilt with 'romance' and 'candlelight' etc. when eating our food. But when equality prosperes is the time that requires 'no candlelight' and 'no smalltalk' anymore. His point is valid yet feeble until we hear the concurring female vocals of Dido, to come and reinforce the point that the desire for equality is a widespread consensus, dreamed of by everyone except the government.
The song is ofcourse a metaphor and stands for wider isses that divides global society as we speak. The main point of the song? Drop the debt.
