The song is basically about being happy no matter what, even in times of danger. Conor writes about a plane crashing yet in the video everyone in the video is dancing, partying and having a good time. The lyrics paint the picture pretty well, and the song is just amazing anyways.

It was a solid album. But becuase this bands name has the word DISCO in it...I much rather them infuse techno then Beatles into their style.
