I love the Emily Haines/Metric cover of this song. Coupled with her voice and the lyrics with their beautiful simplicity this song truly is fantastic.
Interpretation:
For me this song is about deteriorating culture.
"And the world is getting flatter
and the sky is falling all around" I take this as the rise of bigotry and sensationalism found in deteriorating cultures.
