My studio and I are using this song for our lyrical group this year! I love it, and we're really having a great time trying to portray the message. This is such a great song.
He did tell on that person. Thank God too, because you'd have to be pretty brave to tell about something like that. I think he said that he told for the sake of other people. Well done, Garneau.
"Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the knowledge that there is something more important than fear". --Quote from The Princess Diaries--
What a beautiful song! I listened to it for a while after Jeanine danced to it on the 5th season of So You Think You Can Dance then I forgot about it. I finally watched her solo on youtube and started listening to it again. I had forgotten how great this song is!
@MrFrankandDrGerard Chris Garneau is one of the Greatest artists alive. This song is about him being sexually abused and molested when he was a child. That's not really an appropriate comment to put on a beautiful song like this.
So I was drunk last night and I was looking for an epic comment I'm pretty sure I left on a video. Backtracking lead me here.. I didn't find it but I'm still pretty content because I love this song.
I think it's a little twisted that so many people will dance to a song without knowing what it means. It's a beautiful song as far as music goes but the lyrics create a meaning that is juxtaposition from the beautiful melody.
@slik208 How do you know they're dancing to it with out knowing the meaning of the lyrics? The music is beautiful to dance to, that doesn't mean it's twisted to dance to it because it's a dark song. People dance to many emotions... happiness, sadness, hurt, anger... It's a form of expression.
@slik208 I'm not sure you know what the word "juxtaposition" means, but I do agree with your main point. Understanding the meaning of a song really changes how you dance to it/sing to it/play it and I can't imagine performing a song I didn't know the meaning of.
@RubRybnik dude, you said the same thing on Castle-Time. If you want to gibe the impression of intelligence or want to leave an impression, then think of someting different for each song. I, for one, am NOT fooled.
the song is about a rape...chris garneau said that when he was a child he has been molested..it's true...it's a beautiful song and the lyrics are very sad and amazing.... love this sing <3
The lyrics aren't "the lady's got no clothes." It's "the lady's got no clue." Makes much more sense that way if you think about it. Beautiful song, btw.
wow, after reading the lyrics this song is totally fucked it. it's about child rape. "The lady's got no clothes she's at the shop. But if she'd knew then she'd kill you." (Lady = Mom) "normally we have clothes on" "Cooperate with me and answer me Without a plea." "I think he'd pray for an old motor car. Or any bed made without you." chorus: "I know now, I know now, I know now, I'm never gonna tell on you."
@djudo3 The lyrics with his mom is actually, "The lady's got no clue, she's at the shop. But if she knew, then she'd kill you" A lot of sites have 'clothes' but if you listen closely he just pronounces his L strongly, but there's no S in there.
okay this is driving me nuts. im trying to play this by ear. but during the "i would like to see a little more propriety" i cant hear the left hand. does anyone know it?
I tried to play this by ear too, and i think during the "i would like to see a little more propriety" the left hand plays F, Bb, D and C. The verse is D, C, F and Bb. But did you manage to play the chorus ?
this is my new favorite song, i loved it on so you think you can dance and i love chris's voice and the way he says baby just makes the song unique and beautiful
well ive seen dances to this and their beautiful and there have been worst songs about worse things so dont go there. A drop in the ocean by ron pope is super good too its like my theme song. and just by hearing the song ur not gonna get it. really hear it but with your soul not ur mind.
it was written about him being sexually abused and molested. He talked about it in a podcast. He took the man to court and thats where the lyrics "cooperate with me and answer me without a plea" comes from. Its what a judge would say.
I've listened to this song a lot and i STILL don't have a concrete idea of this song's concept. However, I think the core of the song came from the complexities in a couple's relationship which arise when the two individuals become parents and there is another life, which cannot be expected to pull its own weight or give anything to the relationship, is added to the equation. Can I be any more vague? lol I try
I don't think it's about molesting a baby? Where did everyone get that idea from? To me it sounds more like he's in love/having sex with a pregnant woman or a woman who has a child with another man. I think often the discussion of the baby (sleeping in the crib up top, etc), is a metaphor for being forgotten/ignored.
Well, all songs can't be about happy things... If you choose to write a song about child abuse, it might be because you have to express your feelings in some way. It's like therapy.
Wow, beautiful song :) never heard it before now ! Have anyone here heard Ron Pope - A drop in the ocean ?? really beautiful :) But liked this song to !
im not usually into slow songs like this but this song is AWESOME!!!!!!! idk y i guess its the beat or somthin. but its really an emotional song. thats wat makes it good. it hits u for some reason. the lyrics r great!!!!!!!
wow i love this. ive been listening to this over and over for like over an hour now. i LOVE songs you can do that to. this is my friends dance solo and i had to look it up.. i just realized how amazing it is..
