Track listings & Formats
[edit]I added the track listings for the Australian & UK release of the single, but I cannot find the track times for the B-sides. Any help with this would help make that section more complete. — Underneath-it-All 17:08, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
- I've tidied the section; the Canadian and U.S. CD single included the same track listings, which I've now made clear. —Eternal Equinox | talk 20:22, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
Small Correction
[edit]I changed the term "full orchestra" to "string orchestra". "Full Orchestra" usually refers to an orchestra containing all four main sections: Strings, Brass, Woodwinds, Percussion. This song is arranged for either String Section or String Orchestra, as it only contains Strings (besides the Pop instrumentation).--Derek 03:09, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
Lyrics
[edit]So, she sings "Making my way downtown, Walking fast, Faces pass, And I'm homebound. Staring blankly ahead, Just making my way, Making a way, Through the crowd". I'm not a native English speaker and I'm confused: how can she be homebound and at the same make her way downtown through a crowd? Maybe the Song section could go into the meaning of the song/lyrics? --82.170.113.123 (talk) 11:54, 11 February 2013 (UTC)
- Don't know if anyone ever responded, but in this instance, it is meant in the sense of "bound for home", or in other words, that home is her destination. 207.181.233.69 (talk) 00:36, 16 April 2021 (UTC)
