[Bluemonkey9111]

Hope it all works out..

[Jamiewright839813]

sounded cool on the simpsons, didnt know it meant this! Whatever i was meant to have learnt I must have been away that day. I had a great time, whatever you guys problems were i hope you fixed em now! geez

[robnrick1]

As someone who has suffered depression for many years, as a gay teen back then, life was bad....this song I identified with pretty much tells how every gay, lesbian, and transgendered person felt at one time....Janis Ian hit it on the nail with this song...

[DanteRizo]

One feels so awkward at that age, not knowing where one fits in.

[eswyatt]

One needs a finance course to understand this song!

[ronnied828]

2 people listening to this had dates in high school, lol

[WilandTarafan]

I learned the truth at 15 so you anyone that's heard this song gas hopefully learned the truth

[vinnieagogo]

Time is the great equalizer.

The pretty get old and angry,

The outcasts always make better lovers

Because they appreciate it more.

It all balances out someway or another.

I remember this song as a little kid but never really listened to what it said.

funny how we grow older and the words make wayyy more sense.

[ImpOfDoom]

everytime i listen to this i lose the game ;)

[draxcir]

WOW this song is so real

[pbanta62]

This song has great lyrics that most kids today at 17 wouldn't understand.

[maddiemusic1234]

[SPEEDARMOR]

This reminds me of 2nd grade when my class was supposed to make 5 valentines for their their 5 best friends. We made boxes for the cards left them on our desk. We all got up and passed them out to music.

After we sat down to read them.

When i went to open my box... It was empty.

[imhoturenot89]

i learned the truth at 19 :(

[felixbuller]

I'm turning 17 in December. It's so true! I just started at the gymnasium and have to learn to find myself. It's hard to just be one person in the midst of everything, and be heard, and seen. But i have learned, that what to do, is find real friends, who will appreciate you everywhere, not just at school <3 Friends are everything, remember that girls, who go to gymnasiums/high schools too <3

[michelle15utube]

I like the song but it's very sad :(

I don't think anyone should feel bad about themselves like this

Please be happy :)

[lildevilontherun]

[misspiggywearsprada]

It's really sad to be chosen last, and I still get scared. But if people only like you for your looks, what happens when cute fades?

[cindyelise1]

this song will always remind me of my sister, laurie. she loved it. she never could really hold a note, but i have affectionate memories of her singing it. summeres of the seventies. what a beautiful time of life. my mom and my sister. both beautiful in their own right. i miss them both.

[1995penguin]
