Some People Say Lyrics

Most people believe that you wish on shooting stars rather than satellites for your dreams, I wonder whether this is a reference to Billy Bragg's "A New England" which features the line "I saw two shooting stars last night, I wished on them but they were only satellites- is it wrong to wish on space hardware?"

The first words of the three lines after "It has a hidden meaning" are "you and I" - which is neat, if not exactly a hidden meaning.

@Breakfast I have wondered the same thing about the Billy Bragg reference. I think it easily could be. It's also similar to the line from Dreaming - "it's not a star, it's a satellite" which, again, could be a reference to A New England (which is a great song).
