I've always liked this song, but it's recently taken on a new level of importance for me. I've been dealing with a lot of emotional baggage from a failed relationship, and a close friend of mine has been going through similar issues. She listens to me complain and vent about whatever is on my mind, and in return she has my ear whenever she needs someone to talk to.
Hearing the song again after all this has happened, I see that it describes us pretty accurately. For the longest time, I though I was alone and dealing with all of these issues on my own. But after thinking about it, I realize she's been there helping me through this the entire time. Not once has she become annoyed with my sometimes excessive venting. Nor has she ever dismissed my concerns in any way.
Although we both seem to have too many emotional scars for anything more to come from our relationship, I am eternally thankful for having her by my side and being able to call her my friend. I love you, S. Your friendship means more to me than you may ever know! =)
To me this seems like Marko's thankyou to the fans for all their support over the years. Any band ever will tell you of their struggles with garage fame, playing the same gigs in the same towns over and over, waiting for your big break... but now they've got international recognition it seems like he's saying 'Thanks, everyone. I thought we'd be playing garage gigs for the rest of my days, but you were with us all along and we're so grateful.'
