I just heard this song for the first time. The video was on MTV. I really like it! The song is great and the video was pretty cool as well. The sound is unique. It has a club/techno vibe to it which is very cool mixed with the hip hop.

I think the meaning of this song is pretty obvious but to me I feel it is about a man who misses an old girlfriend. He knows it should be over but he wants her back- he wants her in one way or another (short term, long term?). Everything reminds him of her and he hopes that they get back together.

HE WANTS HER!!! ;)
