Back on 2001 I was at a Yo La Tengo's concert which was followed by a questions-and-answers session where the band sat at the stage and talked to those of us who stayed. I was quick to ask Ira Kaplan what was the meaning behind this song. He wasn't very specific saying that it wasn't about a particular event or person, but rather about all the things which allure you in cinema, literature and the media in general when you're young.
I think Ira put a lot of moments of her childhood and adolescence into words and made a song with them.
