Neko's references to the assailant dancing makes me think of Twin Peaks (David Lynch), in which the killer dances after he murders his victims. (For those who haven't seen the series, I'm trying to say this in a way that doesn't involve any spoilers!). We know from multiple interviews that Neko has been deeply influenced musically by composer Angelo Badalamenti, of Twin Peaks fame (which can clearly be heard in the dark reverb guitar sounds that emerged on her "Blacklisted" album). Neko has also said in interviews that many of her songs are inspired by stories and dreams - some that are her own, and some that have come from others. So all of this leads me to wonder if "Fever" might have been inspired by the killer's storyline in Twin Peaks. Maybe some lucky interviewer will ask her about this someday (hint, hint)?

I know that in one interview she said David Lynch is one of her favourite directors.
