This song is about being attracted to people who you can't be with. In our interview with Howard Jones, it was revealed how the idea for the song came about: "Well, I think we can all relate to the main theme of the song. But I was in San Francisco, and I was doing a promotion with the local record company guy, and we were crossing the street to go to the radio station, and he said to me, 'Howard, what do you think of all the amazing women here in San Francisco?' And I said, 'Yeah, they're great, they're fantastic.' And he said, 'Well, you can look at the menu, but you don't have to eat.' And I've never actually heard anybody say that before. And so that was it, a good spark for a huge idea coming for a song." http://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=11807

I love this song. I used to play really loud on long drives in the country. Great memories.

This is a song about how a person's emotional baggage holds him back from accomplishing things that should be easy in life. It was Jones' biggest hit in the US. http://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=11807

Went to see Howard Jones last night and enjoyed his story about how the Phil Collins involvement came to be and how audiences react (with air drumming) when he doesn't have a drummer on tour [he may have told this story when I last saw him in 1993, I don't remember :o)]. Also loved, loved that he allegedly had with him the same loop he created all those years ago for Phil Collins to get an idea of what he wanted out of the song. Last night, the loop accompanied him on his mobile :o).
