I like this new song a whole lot. I like the syncopated piano, the chorus and lyrics, but I haven't heard it enough to "get it" yet.

I think the first two lines are really witty: I'm writting this to you in reverse/Somebody better call a herse

I guess, to me, right now, it's about death, either the physical death of the singer "the lightbulb" being his lifeforce or the symbolic death of a love with the lightbulb being the love-light. But Hell, I don't know, I'm just getting aquainted with this song.

Don't know what it means... ;-)

But my first post here is to thank 'LoserNo1' for pointing me to the way he plays the piano. Makes the song even better for me now... Great!
