Yesterday, I wrote I was going to discuss the lyrics, but 'discuss' is the wrong word. It's not proper to discuss a persons diary, and this song is sort like a page from a diary. The singer tells us how it was, what she felt, and what she did. Without poetic powerplay or mystifications, it plain and simply tells what us happened. It was in the middle of May...
It is the unique story of one single person. And exactly for that reason, it can be recognized by thousands.
(1b) The band had a very lively drummer, who handled the contrast between verse and chorus well, subtly using the hi-hat during the "I thought long & hard" part.
The guitars enhanced the chorus rythm by stressing the 2nd and 4th count.
An electric bass guitar inconspicuously supported the verse, but in the chorus began to walk the scales and everybody that listened just had to move with the rythm.
(2) Just when people started to wonder whether the backing vocalists were only there for illustration, they kicked in in the second chorus. Their sweet harmonizing added a romantic tone to the "I thought long & hard" part. Just before "Let me tell you" the solo guitar entered.
At the end, the chorus was repeated a few extra times. I believe the band also has some brass instruments or saxophones.
(3) The version that I just described, unfortunately exists only in my imagination. I hope it will be a single some day. In my imagination, the CD cover also features a still from the video at 4:05, but you would probably choose a more recent image.
Some other day, I will discuss the lyrics of this song.
I lvoe every little aspect of this song, the lyrics, the tune and music and the meaning is all realyl great. One of my friends came out as being gay earlier this year too. It's not easy, but Im glad you can make things into songs and get it out and have fun with music. I just love this song.
I love the cheeky little smile towards to the end to just of camera hehe. This is a REALLY great song, really catchy, and maybe it's just the tee-shirt having an effect on me, but I think it's a little Regina =]. Well done on coming out, it really is hard to do =].
Wow! I really, really, really love this song! It's so honest, funny, and cute. =) And congratulations on coming out! It's not easy to do, and it's awesome that everyone was supportive of you.
This is the song I've been looking for. This is the song that made me fall head over heels for you!

(1) I recently heard another version of this song, where it was played with a band.
Surprisingly, an accordion played a prominent part during the intro and the verse.
