I heard this song while my ex and me were going back home,from that moment it was our song.Everytime I listen to it..I remember him and all our moments. You're still gorgeous,my darling.
My sister used to sing this to me when I was a little kid, she didnt know what it was about, and she only knew the chorus, so no one should blame her. I love my sister so much, she is the best sister ever!!x
I only remember the part of the song "Your gorgeous id do anything for you" part from 8 years ago when i was 10 and lived in my old house at christmas i heard it :P This is the first time i heard it since then :D
I find it bizarre that so many people view this song as a LULLABY???! It's about a naive model who gets talked into doing a soft-core shoot by a charming photographer. The verse is meant to be ironic with the photographer saying "You're gorgeous!" as he manipulates the girl into going beyond her boundaries. The "I'd do anything for you" is the girl's inner response to his flattery. This is not a love song folks! Still darkly beautiful though. I'm just surprised people don't get it.
@didleybopp You are right! The poem is cruel, heartless. That's what happen in the fashion business. But there are so many songs with vicious moods and still great songs. I could give you so many examples. But you are a good listner, you know what I'm talking about. But, still your comment made a realo close look, and from the beginning of my film I try to catch that true cruel poem.
@jay33jay the cure has a song called lullaby which is horrific in terms of lyrics and still sets the mood cause it's great. some people think this song is about rape and still others treat it as a regular love song - inner Circle - Sweat (A La La La Long)
@didleybopp we all know that..he is singing that in the lyrics..You can read it..But u can't tell people what they should feel when they listen into this song..Maybe the whole song is about the modeling,but when u pick up just few words for example You are gergoues i'll do anything for you and u put some of ur memories and feeling it can be the most romantic song on the earth..do you know what i mean?:)
Why are you talking about a “girl"? This song is sung by a man and it is quite sexistic to believe that these things couldn't happen to boys as well! I don't listen to this song imagining the male singer singing it from the point of view of some girl. Thinking about this scene happening to a naive young man is much more interesting, innovative and closer, since it's a male voice singing.
I wouldn't call the girl interpretation sexist since females are undeniably exploited in these ways more often. That's just a reflection on society, not female weakness. Rather, it's the conventional interpretation. But there's nothing barring your point of view from being applicable, and it IS a lot more interesting :)
if thehannakins daddy sung it to her when she was the baby, cool. it is a funny, clever tune as well. the other side of it is there for us jaded adults if we want and that is good songwriting @didleybopp :-)
@didleybopp I think the fact it's OK! we all may thnk that info. mate, but.. take it easy... what if:
You use a knife to build a house for a bird? - You should use any God for doing wrong (we this to be true)
Things are what you want them to be...(that's a kind of creativity)
To me is +surprising that people still belive in presidents PFF!
Besides, not everyone wich is watching stuff at U2v has an accurated english, I believe there should be lyrics that u shouldn't understand (it happens)
@didleybopp your suprise makes me think that you are american, (don't say it to be mean, stand on me). there are lots of things quite more amazing brou, you'll still surpised... it's a big big world! peace
@didleybopp That's not true, it's actually the opposite. It's not a love song and he is being ironic but apart from that, you're wrong. He's not speaking from the woman's point of view, he's highlighting the exploitation by turning it on its head so it's a woman telling the man to do all these things and he's doing them because she's "gorgeous" and he's manipulating him.
I hope everyone did take the time to have a good look at the lyric, it's not actually a love song (well partly). It's actually kind of sad, I think the lyric is from a girl's view. If you read it closely and think about it, you will find out. No point of explaining it here.
I was just wondering. Cause the first part is talking about puling legs apart and stuff and so I thought that must've been the girl bit but then there was something about an ice cube being rubbed on her chest so I thought that sounded a bit like a boy.
Last monday was my girlfriends birthday, I bought her a card that played this song when it opened, she loved it. God shes amazing, I love her to bits:)x
The song has a real cruel poem. And it gave me the mood to make this micro video, just slow down the song a litlle (now the sound is terrible, I know!) but it's in the calm, soft, almost dark way i wanna do it
the original is amazing, I was looking for it at first and got quite frustrated when I put this on my playlist assuming it to be the original and heard this, yet today because this was still on my playlist it just came on and because I wasn't searching for the original I actually gave it a proper listen...It is like a totally different song and I'm sure if you give it a proper listen and a real try you will love it, cos it is a genuinely beautiful piece when slowed down as well, i promise :)
