Re: SONG LYRICS GAME

[herpymcderp]

Well initially there's no real reason to think the girl doesn't want to marry him. But then, we're only hearing the boyfriend's side of the story. It's an assumption, right? We have an unreliable narrator.

I guess it also ties into what I detest about American love stories, and the whole assumption of "the hero gets the girl in the end". It's basically another example (to me anyway) of the girl's feelings being absent in the love equation.

You can interpret the song the other way of course; that the guy is being upfront and the dad really is an asshole and just hates him for no reason. It's possible that I'm ruining it for myself by being the cynical jerk I am and overanalyzing it.

I just have a lot of feelings (and dislikes) about the culture surrounding romance and heterosexual relationships. Sorry if I got off on the wrong foot trying to explain it there, and if I'm getting off on too much of a rant about this, but I would really hate it if someone had the wrong impression about my actual beliefs regarding this kind of thing.

Again, I think we just have really different interpretations. And maybe you are being cynical? I'm very, very sensitive to the semi-ownership relationship between dads and daughters that has been so prevalent in western history and is still very visible, and I didn't pick that up from this at all (though I did roll my eyes at the guy even bothering to talk to her dad, but it sounded like he was doing it to appease him and his family, not because he HAD to or even because he felt like it was important to him [the narrator]).

I also think with most songs you have to decide how far you're going to think/overthink the "unreliable narrator" thing since usually there is only one narrator.

only one narrator

I don't know. Some love songs are duets. I tend not to think ill of them.

Re: SONG LYRICS GAME

[diet_poison]

did you miss the word "most"?

Re: SONG LYRICS GAME

[herpymcderp]

lol maybe I did? I have to confess I'm generally not big on love songs.
