	Man this is such a strong song, in sound and in emotion. I guess all of Wolfmother's songs are, except for the few fun kinda ones like woman and lovetrain which the meaning is kinda obvious and they just enjoy playing it. Shows that they're true musos ;) Love it! I think the song goes a bit deeper than being stoned or whatever. It reminds me a little of Vagabond. All their songs remind me of each other, they all connect in some way. I think its just that it sounds like the kind of story they tell in Vagabond, how the person (in this case, the colossal girl) wants to escape from the world and someone has fallen in love with her and wants to go with her. Anyway thats what it means to me, it could be anything really. I love the emotion and importance that wolfmother put into their music and lyrics. ps. this is one of my favourites... hence my name ;)

No Picture The Four String Lead Player	#2 by The Four String Mother Fucker at Jan 24, 2007 at 5:38 PM EST
	i luv this song and i think it is one of the better wolfmother songs but i guess i can say that about all of the album

No Picture Matt Lead Player	#3 by Matt Miller at Feb 2, 2007 at 8:37 PM EST
	I Love this song, I think half these wolfmother songs are about being stoned or something, but this song really opens the album really well

No Picture john Average	#4 by john at Mar 3, 2007 at 1:43 PM EST
	This song is about a giant woman in a fantasy time.

	I know Andrew's been a photographer, so I think he might just be a little deeper than what you all talking about drugs all the time think. But you can't always tell the difference(...).

No Picture Jon Lead Player	#6 by Jon Shuffler at Aug 31, 2007 at 9:17 AM EST
	Burning Man this song is about Burning man. www.burningman.com

No Picture cinn Professional Badass	#7 by cinn mcrickson at Sep 11, 2007 at 10:40 PM EST
	Actually, this song is about a rabbit. When Andrew was in this field in the great surrounding the great Hollywood forests, he saw this rabbit. And the feeling the rabbit gave him as it got eaten by the fox was a colossal one. A feeling of relief that the circle of life is still fucntioning within all of us.
