Hi jelliot43,
Welcome and I hope you enjoy yourself here.

I like your thoughts on IYCRMM. I think they are very true to his meaning.
I also might add that part of the song is about learning to let go of the other half of that connection.
Sometimes, the person on the other end of the signal NEVER comes back...then what do you do?

You have to learn to let go...who wants to live the rest of their life on hold and continuously trying to 'redial' and see if the signal is still getting through?

Oh yeah, we can have a conversation about this song....lol.
