I was going to add all this as a reply to Haggard Celine's post about the song back in June - https://www.democraticunderground.com/1034147092 - but a lot of people never look at replies, even when they kick an older thread.

Live at Wembley, 2008:

Great demo...with some really good whistling:

1. Thanks for posting these!

I'm going to watch them now. I didn't know about these.

2. He said the song is about a guy who

wakes up and finds himself at his own funeral. I know the feeling. Sometimes you just sit and wonder what the hell this is all about. It doesn't make any sense. I sometimes wonder if I'm here by mistake and I'm just biding my time until the whole mess gets sorted out. The song speaks to these feelings in a most pleasant way.

4. The feeling that you're in the wrong timeline. Not uncommon. Especially now.
