A quite political and personal song. I like how the 68 riot in Paris is inferred in the film clip for this song, giving it a bite it may not have otherwise had. The implication of Jesus's life and execution is similarly quite fitting. These world-historical moments are then contrasted against the intimate relationship of two people. In doing this, the despair at humanity's constant, momentous mistakes in the light of history is very well represented and wittily and smartly conveyed
