Lyrics, "i feel like a traveling sales MEN" even though i am women"that is why a man is singing that song, there all cleared up :) now shut the fuck up
i love this guy..! Hes got muscular features.. Not like those pretty(!) men we see on tv everyday..!! and the way he looks, his head slightly tilted on the side, just makes me wanna kiss him...
The actor's Aiden Young ... some may remember him from the movie The Robe - beautifully synched, and he gets the feminine nuances down pat. Great work, awesome video. Contrast it against John Waters in 'On My Own' (no offence JW) - chalk vs cheese.
Dolly Fiction now as music to accompany it: worst lyrics ever. I think I wrote this crap about 15 years ago when i was an angsty teenager. Move on......
im not dissing the song i love it but may i ask excatly why for all their songs they have a boy singing the girl part is it like some big thing i dont get meh just wondering love the song this band should befamous i call this real music not that cheap fake stuff you get these days we need more bands like this (Y)
@MrNotaustin Well the song is saying that she feels like a traveling salesman, even though she's a woman, and i though that that guy was a salesman. So.... it makes sense to me!
if u listened to triple j when they featured this album, the girls actually said this song is about a friend who literally preferred to be away from her boyfriends and 'loved them more when she was missing them'. it's literal; no symbolism. tho i spose everyone interprets art in their own way.
Oh and i can definately relate to this song, considering i left my boyfriend because he physically and verbally abused me, but i'm still in love with him. Hence why i miss him more when i'm away from him.
I think the point of this video is to make it easier for male viewers to empathize/relate/sympathize with and understand the woman singing in this song.
I don't see any link to domestic violence in this song - what I'm hearing is a story of longing & inability to commit, which defies the feminine stereotype, but we all read different things into music & lyrics.
@gn2ibukota Good words,I wonder how you define stereotype? to me this means our whole way of the way we live,we are all living in a society that has been planned, we are all subservint to how we behave and what we should be doing to be normal. I would like to relly know what normal means if you strive to be good, dont lie or cheat I guees you are close, also how do you decribe qaulity, also what do you think of the word freedom,
@gn2ibukota "Inability to commit" & "the feminine stereotype" in the same sentence? I'm not sure what planet you came from but it just comes to show that we indeed all read different things into music, Lyrics and people alike. When it comes to this song, well inability to commit is obviously the bottom line, but again everyone is different.
@gn2ibukota really? what i got from it was that we're all slaves to ideologies and preconceptions of how we should act in modern society, specifically in relationships, when really we are monogamous creatures of habit that have long lost the true reason of living based on our primal needs and are swamped by materialistic goods and services we don't need driven by soulless salesman driven by the almighty dollar and corporate machine. hmm, but i'm also high. real high.
@hingasle check out most brilliant australian artists and you'll find a severe deficiency of views, especially because the only radio station with the license is triple j :) ....hmm.... makes me wonder if the indies like it that way XD
@Kimberleyb88 Hearing it on the radio I hadn't thought much about it, but then seeing the clip, reasons I have percieved it this way are
A) She is depicted as a man - seemingly to appear stronger in finally standing up and not coming back, perhaps irony for line "Even though I'm a woman"
B) His/Her Black eye
C) Considering above, gives new meaning to lyrics for me. I'd certainly love/miss someone more when I'd left them and the bad times fade, than if I stay and get hit.
why she always use actors? but we know that the singer is a woman
