Ok just one correction...I believe the drive she takes is 50 minutes, not 15. Hard to clear your mind to rock classics on a 15 minutes drive.
Now for the interp...
I think the deep voice Karin uses and her passion for distorting gender lines suggests the song is sung from a male perspective. Like chrissbliss alluded to, it sort of sounds like a half retarded, pretentious rock star's life style...hence the name "Rock Classics." It's a "classic" look at a typical rock star mentality. Not even interested in fucking this girl's brains out, just wants his almighty golden cock sucked and licked by this girl who doesn't even know why she is doing it other than the fact this dude is a rock n roll hero.
Regardess, what a brilliant electronic dip into old school american blues spliced with coffee shop beatnik! Karin's creativity, talent, and dynamic approach to music is unrivaled in today's music scene. No artist I've ever heard has resonated with me on so many levels: intellectually, morally, musically, sexually...this woman is on fire!!
I wish The Knife would get back to their more coherent and artfully crafted masteries as seen on deep cuts and the self-titled album. This new age bouncy-ass meth music shit must cease! You can't tell me, after listening to the Fever Ray album, that Karin is out of material. Hey lady! I realize you've got two kids and you're tired, but the world is tired of garbage ass mtv posers making it want to vomit into its own eardrums. Please blow my fuckin mind like I know you can;)
