  • I love that people don't actually get what this song is supposed to mean.

  • This song just omg ...

  • why is there such a long silence at the end of the song.. i don't understand that, but despite that I love this song.

  • Lol man or woman, harassment is harassment and harassment is wrong. Stop blaming genders or races or what the fuck ever; people in general are selfish, rude and disgusting in different ways.

  • Comment removed

  • Its nice how many people relate to this song in some way, but can we all shut the fuck up now and not make the video our personal soap box.

  • The beginning reminds me of 'Cancer' by My Chemical Romance

  • @xXMcrLuv3rXx thanks for ruining this song ;p

  • Comment removed

  • @violindustrial13 LOL sorry. xD I meant 'I don't love you' by MCR though. wrong song.

  • @xXMcrLuv3rXx haha! ;) it's okay.. but only if you love Emilie more than MCR...

  • Some Dudes are assholes some girls are bitches/ whores. We just have to deal with it NOT all guys are assholes there are some good guys out there. NOT all girls are Bitches/ Whores there are some nice girls out there. Like me I'm not a bitch or a whore. I've been described as a nice kind caring person. Also very loving and I'm in a happy relationship.

  • @MrsCrazyStrangeGirlx : That's why you have a great relationship. :)

  • such a beautifully ironic song......I love it when I can hear the sarcasm in her voice.

  • Far as I'm concerned, it sucks to be a male with a heart, but I wouldn't want to be a woman. Most women are utterly obliterated in terms of self-esteem and the vision of what "love" is supposed to be by the time they are my age. I just have to suffer the aftereffects of their psychological trauma they have been dealt by these assholes just looking for T&A, it sucks telling a woman she is beautiful, and knowing she will never believe you, and if she does, she'll leave you for someone "hotter".

  • I'm sorry, why are people fighting here? Shouldn't this be a common ground where we should all accept each other and be nice, if not only for our like of the music? If we can't agree on something so trivial, why would we instigate and attempt to harm each other?

  • @hunnyluvs, aw, you must be ugly :/

  • Sh*t, thank God I'm pretty.

  • Why does everybody have to turn this into a debate? Shut up and enjoy the song.

    Fuck.

  • This song has NOTHING to do with which 'gender' is above the other. It's about immortalizing and exalting a human being-turning them into something...omnipotent...almos­t to the point of dehumanizing them simply because they are physically attractive.

    It's like devoting oneself to the cover of a book but never opening it.

    I do not believe at all it was intended to become a statement about 'gender roles'.

  • I love you all. Although my one and only qualm is that you can't love me too.

  • I just have an advantage based on looks, and it all adds up, whether or not you want to admit it. I also have to say that beauty does not come easily. I doubt there is any pretty girl who does not spend considerable time grooming, exercising, dressing, etc. If you don't want to be pretty, stop putting in the effort and you'll be ugly. As for me, at the risk of sounding vain, I really do thank God I'm pretty.

  • Personally, I enjoy the attention and appreciate the occasional free drink I never asked for ...along with the free dinners at fine restaurants on 1st dates, having first pick of nice, single guys for partners, the ability to command attention just by walking into a room (at which point, of course, it helps to have something intelligent to say), extra points in job interviews (studies confirm this, believe it or not), and the occasional free taxi ride. And no, I don't sleep around for this stuff

  • @angolangel No, but you're a ho for taking it anyway

  • Funny song. I love Emilie Autumn, and she's right on some counts. At the same time, in her sarcasm she leaves out a lot of the real advantages of being pretty. Everyone has problems, but the truth is that pretty girls have it much easier than ugly girls.

  • No se porqué, pero esta canción siempre logra levantarme la morál. Gracias Emilie.

  • its just a song guys, calm down.

  • This is Emilie's Autumn's way of singing praises to God on Sunday...

  • @prettyful845 yeah, probably not. its more her way of saying "wtf god? i thought you were supposed to help the unfortunate" (see "God Help Me")

  • I found this song by accident but when I did I linked it to all my friends, most of whom have expressed similar things. I think it is wonderfully, beautifully sarcastic and back-handedly funny. To the point that I have covered it in public which usually causes something of a stir. Probably because I'm a guy!

  • Why are the comments from so long ago? Well..I love this song ad when I hear her my heart feels alright ^^ LOVE HER

  • wtf? i come to see what comments there are and they're all about history and shit o_o XD

    Love this song <3

  • @CrashBangWalrus She sings about women in the Victorian age... what did you expect? Her songs have a deeper meaning, and that attracts people with brains who like to talk about those meanings.

  • @GeneralHoohah are you saying i don't have a brain? i wasn't saying that it was bad that they were talking about those things i was merely saying that i didn't expect it.

  • I'm in love this song. What is her music classified as?

  • OOOK everyone needs to listen to her Opheliac Companion album....there's a HUGE part that's been overlooked, namely Hamlet, which most of this ablum is about. I suggest reading it.

    To everyone who got the sarcasm...Congratulations, you have an effing sense of humor. To those who didnt....well, I suggest removing your heads from the dark spaces you've stuffed them in.

    btw.. @starfcker: The world is so fucked up because of people like you. So look in the mirror once in a while.

  • i really dislike her voice

    she sings about some really interesting things but it sounds :|

    anyway, my girlfriend loves her so i guess i do too

  • Wait.

    Some people didin't get that she was sarcastic in this song?

  • LOL. it's so funny to me how you idiots have such a hard time understanding this song. she's being sarcastic about how shallow people are and how differently they treat you if they think you're attractive. she is in now way "insulting her listeners". she's insulting the idiot men and other people who treat you solely based on looks.

    like when she says "the occasional admission to a seedy little bar".. SEEDY is not a complimentary adjective.

  • Oh I do enjoy this song, however. Lovely. Ahh... twats...

  • Fucking hell. Can all you bickering twats just shut the fuck up? It's a song. Listen to it or don't. No one cares about how intelligent you are. Who cares if its sarcasm, insults, desires, etc.? Exactly, no-fucking-body. If you want to complain about so called "beautiful" girls complaining about a "blessing", start a fucking website or some shit and you quit complaining and trying to bombard the whole site with your fucking "intelligence." Jesus Christ... its ridiculous. Fucking hell...

  • On the other hand, I know that I have to be extra careful when I go out. I can't go to a party or a club alone... ever. I've tried, it ends in molestation and fear, constantly. maybe it's the same for all girls, but for me, even if i just have one girl friend that I'm obviously "with" it doesn't matter because we all know bi just means looking for the right man to join in, right? the amount on non consensual shit i've had to put up with is beyond understandable - it's disgusting.

  • as a so called "hot girl" who's been asked to model for Suicide Girls, I can definitely see both sides of this. Every day I thank god for my good looks, it's truly been a blessing in most cases, job, school, social interactions are made easier - at the same time, I know my looks are my trump card, I'm constantly concerned about my weight and my complexion, it's proven that "hot girls" are more paranoid about appearance than people who would be considered normal.

  • @LittleMissZombiexXx oy vey.. you're really not a very intelligent person. I post a simple comment on here and you throw a little temper tantrum. I listen to her music because I like her music. I understand her lyrics. People like you (that is, little brats without any real perspective) assume that anyone who does not agree with you must not understand because you're so "deep and meaningful" I understand her lyrics. They're rather obvious, as far as lyrics go.

  • To all the spoiled little girls who complain about being blessed with beauty, try an experiment. Gain a ton of weight and take a baseball bat to the face. Don't go with the "you can't possibly understand" nonsense, because then you're just being a whiny little brat, its NOT a complicated or hard to understand issue. You don't realize how good you have it being an attractive person.

  • @LittleMissZombiexXx I'm AWARE that she's being sarcastic. And that's the problem. Oh look at you "can't possibly understand" BS. I understand her music fine. The difference is that I don't AGREE with it. Being beautiful is a blessing. PS. ugly women get raped JUST as often; as has been proven that rape is not about sexual attraction, its about dominance. Try listening to her lyrics, she's not just talking about rape anyway. She's insulting her listeners.

  • @harrignos, yes cuz its just so much fun to be whistled at,honked at stalked & fucking harassed by people we don't even know,& your not even ugly anyway...more like an ungrateful bitch.

  • @chickapac i know ayee, you get some of the worst things done to you when your pretty, it sucks :/

  • I love EA's music. But this song just pisses me off. She's complaining about how horrible it is to be pretty. Try being ugly for a day or two, then we'll see which is worse. Ungrateful bitch.

  • Most men are assholes, most women are bitches... and no I dont mean in the new slang usage. I mean conniving whorish twats that need to be slapped. The moral? Most people today are horrid creatures that are only concerned with themselves. Deal with it or get over it.... Thank God I dont have to deal with the largest portion of the imbecilic hatemongers on youtube everyday.

    Thank you Miss Autumn for helping me keep my sanity in this mad mad world.

  • Mmmmm free champagne. Yes plz.

  • this song is really sarcastic and she has a pretty voice though

  • She has such a beatiful voice....

  • I am not trying to say you are all wrong, but as you think all men are just pure evil, i could say the same about so many women and not all of us our as bad as you people seem to make out

  • Thank Allah, I'm not a man

  • Wow. I believe most men are pricks. Women are just as equal as men. I find it disgusting what they made us go through years ago, and even today we're still not treated fairly; and in western countries too! It might not be seen as well, but we're still not treated equally. Fuck.

  • yeah you are right most me, but you get the odd man that shows women respect and treats them equal....

    i would stand up for women's rights even tough i am a guy xD

  • Way to throw all men in the same bucket.

    Ofcourse we sould all be treated equaly.

    But women will never be men, and men will never be women.

    Men has done things which women never have and will never understand the same way, men has died in countless of war's sacrificing themselves for their belives and countries, sacrificing themselves for family and homes while women are safe.

    This has been happening for thousands and thousands of years.

    It is only natural that the change is going slow.

  • @Miratesus

    someone who gets it <3333

    thankyou

  • Glad you understand, i expected lots of rage comments after my statement, eventho it was quite neutral.

    Best Regards Miratesus.

  • @Miratesus I agree with what you say, but you forgot to mention women have to give birth... :P

  • @itsUchihaYukii i find it disgusting that women use sex as a means of control over men, but you don't me bitching. women are just as screwed up as men are, just for different reasons. there's equality for ya.

  • @malfeam Men use emotions to get sex!

  • we have to. men die without sex. we just do what we have to to survive.

  • @itsUchihaYukii

    Of course we aren't treated equally its only been about 40 or so years sense women really began to recive any kind of independence. We were raised by the daughters whose mothers had been raised to think women are good for cleaning, cooking, fucking and raising babies. And this mentality went on for thousands of generations before them. Enough time hasn't pased for women's equality to be fully achieved.

  • @itsUchihaYukii

    I wrote a whole essay on the subject because I wanted to and I gave it to my teachers to read and they were like 0.O "WOW you're absolutly right... it hasn't been very long."

  • ya cuz we totally chose our genders >.>

  • i chose mine. it's awesome!

  • actually its the guys, whiuch ever is the fastest er swimmer chooses the gender.

  • @malfeam

    not really. At least theres no way we'll get drafted for war.

  • @spilledinsanity i also chose to be american.  no one gets drafted here. =)

  • In emergency situations it's women and children first and I should bloody think so after the shite we have to put up with.

  • @neoclassicalsop

    bleh, men have delt with so much more.

  • We live in such a misogynistic culture. Men think that just because a girl looks a certain way they have the right to touch her. Fuck them. Rapists are cocks.

  • @spagerbot

    I used to date a guy who thought it was justifiable to molest a girl if she was dressed like a slut. meh.

  • wow...he needs a good kick in the balls...

  • @spagerbot Not all men are the same you know..... Some men respect women and view them as equals. You can't call all rapists and ass holes, no one will take you seriously if you can't express your opinions with out insulting other people.

  • her and voltaire should do a tour together the old skool artist style should be highly commended in todays industrial music theme glorious hight of ignorance

  • He should join her when she goes to stockholm next year.

  • A lot of people haven't picked up on her Victorian theme. In that age, women were forced to marry men who were wealthy, and they were put in asylums for expressing political views and when their husbands tired of them and wanted a new wife. They were even forced to dress up and people paid to walk through the asylums and look at them like animals in zoos wearing pretty dresses. Women were treated like animals, and I'm glad I don't live in that time. Its discusting how they were treated.

  • Now all women needs to deal with is lower pay, inferior healthcare and less resources  spent on the investigation if they are the victim of a crime.

  • God help society. Really, just because we have different bits we're considered inferior. We're the ones that have to deal with labor and our 'monthly gift' we should be considered equal. Guys only part in kids is the fun part.

  • What are you going to do about it?

  • I don't know. Bitch. PMS. Make guys carry children.

  • The correct answer was kick ass and crush the skull of any asshole who step on my toes.

  • @GeneralHoohah and what's even worse is that that theme she uses come from the fact that asylums now aren't that much better....

  • @GeneralHoohah Dear General, I am so discusted to live in this time. People still don't treat women the way it should be. We are still second best. We still dress up. We still get raped, we still get killed. And it's still our fault.

    What has changed?

    Love, AnamCara

  • @anamcara13 I strongly agree with you, but I think there's another side to this discussion that I only just realized yesterday. Good timing. Women have a LOT of power. How often do you hear a woman reject a man, and how often do you ear a man reject a woman? Women hold much more power over men in that regard, and after a lifetime of watching women put on tight outfits, just so they can reject you... I think that causes some people to just snap. BELIEVE me I'm VERY frustrated by this.

  • Comment removed

  • @GeneralHoohah Also, think how wearing someone down mentally and emotionally in this regard effects someone who's already mentally disturbed... they'll of course lash out and take what's been denied from them countless times. I can only imagine what is going through their mind. The anger, the satisfaction of revenge, a sense of victory... its sick yes, but if you think about it, it makes a lot of sense.

  • @GeneralHoohah D: I didn't know that. Thank you :D

  • @GeneralHoohah There is very little that bothers and annoys me more then mistreating women. I realize some can be complete pieces of shit themselves, but they have been, and still are, degraded worse then any racism in the past. I can't see how it is humanly possible to mistreat the opposite sex seeing as we require them to survive and in more ways then we can imagine.

    Maybe I'm just an idiot for not understanding, or maybe I'm just human.

  • @GeneralHoohah boo hoo a rich husband, maybe you should have been married to a whiskey drinking mick like me. women in politics is why the world is so fucked up today. romans with all their degeneracy would not have put up with the sort of nonsense we have now

  • @GeneralHoohah yes,poor women,all those men who got sent senslessy to their deaths by queens just so they could rule over more men and wear pretty gold necklaces and diamonds and smell pretty never minds the indigenous people who suffered for it,pull you head in,nothings really changed.

  • @robot327 Yes, this. 'Cause there were so many ruling queens throughout history doing this. As opposed to every single king and male autocratic ruler ever -- who did what , precisely? As for indigenous people suffering due to female queens -- I'm guessing you're referring to queen Isabella of Spain -- well yes, that was horrible. But one example does not make a case against half the world's population. As opposed to violence ( and the like) against women, which is pandemic

  • @eurydice8 I think you have conveniently edited history to come out with the end result that suites your opinion,get over your self,you live in a great time,nothings perfect,genders need each other,its about balance,which your point of view is not.

  • @robot327 What specific examples from history are you referring to?

  • @robot327 ur a man arent you?

  • @MUSE981 I am a robot

  • @MUSE981 i am Robot

  • @GeneralHoohah sadly not much has changed ; /

  • @chirpz1999 I'm not saying its right, or that I condone it at all. But... from a guy's perspective, I can understand why woman have been treated like this for so long and the hostility it causes between women. The majority of women castrate men the first chance they get, they're emotionally selfish, egotistical, extremely judgmental, lure us into marriage then let themselves go and get fat and disgusting. I can't tell you how many of my friends's lives have been made miserable by a female.

  • @GeneralHoohah So I think the ways women have been treated in history may have to do with that. And it causes a circle of consequences. Men are sick of rejection and being tormented by women so they don't give them equal treatment and it causes a social backlash, women are pissed off they don't get equal treatment and demand more and take it out on the men, and it goes around and around. I think if women would just act like the better "man" and end the bullshit, things would self correct. :)

  • @GeneralHoohah That's disgusting of you to say, as well as materialistic. If someone wants to 'let themselves go' it shouldn't matter. There isn't any being lured into marriage. Don't do it, if you aren't in love. Don't be a part of something if you can't handle the worst case scenario. Men can also be any of the things you've listed. It's not a gender role, it's a character role. I don't have enough space to express how much is wrong with this post. [Signed a friend of the account owner.]

  • @zerostarhx You can say that all you want, but I look around and see it every day. You can't argue what what someone has observed over and over and over during most of their life. Hell, I've even known a list of females who went straight after dating women for a while. Their reasons included things like most women are too petty, emotionally selfish, dramatic, hypercritical, selfish, shallow, etc. I'm not making this up and I'm not trying to bash women. I'm just tellin it like it is. :(

  • @GeneralHoohah: Honestly, I think people need to shutup with the men vs women shit. Humans are fucking disgusting people all together, no gender is better than the other. Your gender doesn't define who you are, people need to stop stereotyping.

  • Comment removed

  • @neonrocker4life And honestly, I think people need to shut up and get over them self and take a look around them at the real world. People don't just make this shit up, they don't magically pull stereotypes out of thin air. They form by people making observations that repeat countlessly in a specific group of people, whether it be by sex, creed, religion, etc. Most women and men display certain behaviors native to their sex, there's nothing sexist or evil about that observation, its just life.

  • @GeneralHoohah:You don't just take a group of the same sex and then if they all act the same, assume everyone of that sex is the same. That's wrong. Everyone is different. Your sex doesn't define your personality. No gender is ''better'' than the other. We both have qualities, good and bad.

  • @neonrocker4life Of course they're not all the same, everyone is mostly different, but many or most groups of people will usually have in common a small part of their personality or a group of certain traits. Go read a book, if you don't believe me or do some online research. Its been studied and proven by plenty of doctors and scientists. No I won't link you. Go find it for your self. Yes I have read on the subject, but we're talking some fifteen odd years ago.

  • @GeneralHoohah To be honest, a LOT has happened in fifteen years - both in general and in gender studies specifically. I suggest you update your studies a bit luv, because what I think you are alluding on is stereotypes. Stereotypes works great for generalisations over groups such as "white, female, born in the 80s and studying at college" - where you can name several factors.

    Generalizing 50% of the population based on ONE factor is never recommended.

  • @zerostarhx Lots of men and women will back me up when I say, when it comes down to it women are much worse than men. And if you don't believe that, you're very naive.

  • @GeneralHoohah you are niave by saying that women are worse than men! That is sexist and steriotyping i know more men than women that are selfish and shallow! BUT i know lots of women who are total bitches! Its not the gender that makes the person it is THE PERSONALITY! And for many hundreds of years men have thought (as yourself) that it IS the gender and have therefore been treating woman diferently for fear of some uprise where women will treet men like they treated them SO TAKE THAT!

  • @mangajerry Well... I'm talking mostly about western women to be honest, but women since the dawn of time have been worse than men. The guy behind the the-niceguy webpage is my hero. Finally someone has the courage to say what most guys I know are thinking and talk about behind closed doors. Women have no idea how many men think this. A lot of guys won't talk about it around women, cause they either travel in groups and will gang up on him or they don't want their face torn off. LOL

  • @mangajerry Ya know, a long tiem ago men were actually afraid of wemon. They had no idea what caused birth, and they thought wemon were gods because they gave birth to other living things.

  • @Ubermonkeyspoon Uh. Doubt it. Maybe in Egypt, where they revered women higher than Europe did. But they weren't afraid of us. ._. Where did you get that from? They thought we were the most sinful because Eve took a bite from the apple, and that we're inferior to them. They never thought we were gods, at least in Europe. Look at history.

  • @WritheandShineFan Egypt was fine for the most part,but Europe outside of the Medevil times did had its own little brand of female power.There were a series of female monarchs(Elizabeth the First ,Queen Victoria),female writers(Jane Austin,Bronte sisters),even female warriors(Joan of Arc,Boudica).

  • @mangajerry I am a hypocrite.

  • @mangajerry

    I don't mean to disagree that personality is the deciding factor in a persons behavior and point of view. But I would like to point out the fact that in your retort you generalized men, which in turn sort of nullifies the rest of what you said. You plead for understanding and then attack a gender. Maybe you meant to say "a majority of men" or "some men"? If that is true, I apologize.

  • @residentrowan But it kinda was the majority, if not all men. They were brought up thinking that women were inferior to them, and treated them as such. Sons would see their father treat their mother that way and pass it on. Then again, I'm talking waayyy back, like the 1400s, give or take a century. :/ Though as time went on, more men started to believe in equality for women.

  • @WritheandShineFan

    This is true. There were a great many outliers though in the fourteen hundreds. A lot of women with a lot of power. The kind of power that is hard to ignore, which I can imagine brought ruin to a great deal of men's preconceived ideas of women.

  • @mangajerry You spelled treat wrong. <3

  • I love how there is the same amount of silence as there is song

  • I love the song, and what it stands for (:

  • Beautiful :]

  • sarcasm: humanities way of weeding out the assholes who just dont get it

  • That's "humanity's", not "humanities". Or maybe I just don't get it.

  • loll yeah my mistake :)

  • lol aint that the truth!

  • Well, shes starting by saying how good being pretty is, but then goes into the darker side and how bad it is in the end.

  • The sarcasm makes it, Oh just that much that better!

  • She's being sarcastic...

  • I love this song, I hate when men do that to women. I love the way she's saying things like thank god and i'm blessed, but actually she's singing about hating that men look at her and like her body but care nothing for her, just using her for her looks, it's great, the sarcasm rules!

  • what an happie song it makes me cry

  • lol... hilarious

  • invitation to stranger's car I'm blessed...

  • She's a marmite crumpet, either love her or hate her, well I love her :)

  • so poingiont. remeniscant of , Biaz, judy collins, ect,

  • I just love her sarcasm. lol This is actually my first time hearing this particular song of hers. I LOVE IT!

  • mw too, shes ahhmazing =]

  • If you're going to bash her, at least make sure you can spell your insults. And I highly doubt this is a serious song reflecting her innermost thoughts about herself.

    And what, if I may be so bold, is your preferred music choice? Hip hop? Yes, because that -isn't- awful.

  • lol i dun listen to rap, i listen to any melodic or symphonic black or death

  • Do you even understand the lyrics? Dont think so --

  • this is an awesome lyrical achievement blinded bro. She is mocking the superficiality of people, how in this world, what people see as "pretty" decides how they treat you.

    her voice is awesome, ive never heard of anything like it. it almost reminds me of Patti Smith and she has balls like her too.

  • If I may ask, what do you dislike about her? Musically, I mean, not how attractive she is.

  • yur not attractive either mayte

    shes pretty

  • LOL- you have to be into "Goth" or Alternative looking retro chicks. While I think her voice isn't as 'soft' and sweet as I'm used to - Emilie comprises 4 major things I like in a women: Long red hair, Curls, stockings, and sacasm- lol. You either get her or you don't.

    I love how she's being self-deprecating about how most Men will only 'see her' and not 'hear her' to the point of "jerking off' to her until she's stops singing- lol....that's pretty funny and gutsy!- She's earned my respect!

  • Idiot, It's tongue and cheek. Dumb fuck

  • being "pretty" is a curse. guys your age dont like you because you dont fit in, older guys perve over you and nobody realises you have any talent! oh well.

  • She got amazing voice, love it! She`s pretty ^^

  • I think her music is lovely. It has a classical sence, which I believe she was aiming for. I would love it even without the lyrics. I can also see the irony in this peice, not that it is not apparent. It's one of my favorites mainly because of the music and not the lyrics, but still very nice.

  • Word.

  • ha ha epic sarcasm!

  • Marry Me remix on youtube!!!

  • this song scares me..

  • This is a funny one.

  • Lol plutoismyhero is like.. so right. this is just stupid to argue about.. who cares? her music sounds good, end of story.

  • I admit, it's a stretch, meh.

  • oh i love this song♥

    she is very pretty♥

    i love her<3

    <
