The first time I heard this song, I had no idea it featured Phil Oakey from The Human League. So once I'd got over the very pleasant surprise of hearing his distinctive voice, it took the song to another level entirely. It's definitely one of the stand out tracks on Little Boots's debut CD and I hope she and Phil Oakey collaborate in the future, their voices complement each other perfectly.
As for the song meaning, it's obviously about a woman who'd like her partner to love her back just as much as she does, the eponymous "symmetry".
