I have a very deep fear of schizophrenia - people with it, people developing it, the possibility that I may develop it, etc. A few weeks ago before this album leaked, I had a nightmare about my "schizophrenic voices" personified and chasing me around a state fair. After finally getting my hands on Everything Under The Sun the next day after the nightmare, I heard this song and felt very uneasy (the sequence of events was the weirdest part for me). So since I'm friends with the drummer of Jukebox, I asked him on facebook chat why the hell they wrote this song.
He told me that it's because Ben (another member of the band) used to have the same fear of schizophrenia and decided to write a song about it in a playful way, kind of like a sigh of relief because he is past the age where it onsets and is perfectly healthy. What a sigh of relief to me that someone else shared the same fear. Although, I'm still weary of the timing of it all. I need to start believing in coincidences haha ;]
OKAY ENJOY! It's a really awesome song. One of my favorites.
