Perhaps suddenly becoming famous feels like being in love or something like that. If you were famous for something shameful then you wouldn't have that same feeling.

Rotterdam or Anywhere Song meaning

According to Paul Heaton from the Band the Beautiful South, He wrote the song 'Rotterdam or Anywhere' when he went to a very unfriendly bar in Rotterdam in the Netherlands. They didn't like him and were trying to make excuses to make him leave because he was dressed a bit scruffy and looked a bit drunk. 

He was pointing out that people are like pickles, dull and all the same. They have a khaki personality. People in most modern cities value superficial things like being well dressed and all behaving the same and don't like people that match up to their status.

When I was a young boy, I thought the song was about bricks and concrete. I'm not sure why, perhaps because bricks are used in every city and made all the buildings look the same. They played that song often in the '90s.
