Comments

[beandelphiki.livejournal.com]

I normally really like your comments, but I basically addressed your criticism here in my FIRST comment, so what could I possibly say in response to this? Again: gender specificity is organic to some songs. I'm not complaining about those ones.

The OP originally mentioned songs in which a gender is SUDDENLY mentioned toward the end. Clearly, the song was functioning fine without it. That's the kind of thing that bugs me, and which I'm talking about.

I refer you to my example above: Michael Buble's version of "Fever." The original lyrics did NOT include the line, "Chicks were born to give you fever," (which is an...interesting line for other reasons), nor all the Romeo/Juliet stuff, which was added in cover versions of the song. (But not everyone does the "cover" version, because I heard multiple versions of "Fever" without ever stumbling across the "chicks" line until I heard Michael's version). I really don't think those lyrics add anything to a song that originally did very well with only "I/you."
