The song is about a finnish friend of Damien's who "looks kinda like an eskimo"...

Oh my lord...I just wrote a huge reply to this about why it is sung by an opera singer, and then realised that wasn't the question, lol [img]smileys/smiley9.gif[/img] How foolish |

I've always thought that it was about a dog. When he's really down and he has noone else, he turns to his dog (Eskimo friend) Cos eskimoes obviously never freeze, just like a dog.. ...well of course dogs freezes too..[img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img] but not like us.
