For my taste the song is too descriptive and not prescriptive enough: the answer to the destructive aspects of seeking perfection is to stop seeking perfection and to rethink transcendence (hello, Nietzsche and/or Spinoza! And hello, Ian's post on _High Fidelity_ from yesterday!). But I've never understood this kind of alienation, and the way in which happy songs can be a flight from reality, as deeply as I do when listening to this. Fantastic indeed.
