Songfacts®:

  • Lead singer Raine Maida explained: "It's a distress signal, really. It's a call to everyone who's found themselves stuck in their rooms having their souls sucked out of them by TV and having television or the internet mold their values and interests. It's a call for help from one isolated person to another." >>>

  • Ashley from Moncton, CanadaThis was so awesome live!! The whole place was singing and screaming, and it was so awesome, one of the best moments of the show. Best concert I've ever seen (partly because they opened with Naveed and ended with Starseed.)
  • Max from Toronto, Canadathe live version of this song includes a chilling intro not found on the original version. anyone who likes the song should check it out. it's on olp's live disc.
