Re: Songs and knowing too much about them

(Anonymous) 2013-01-20 04:13 pm (UTC)(link)
The thing is, the song isn't about "both edges". There's no clear divide between "this stuff is bad" and "this stuff is good". The song is about how he can do ANYTHING.

He can heal people, he can do thing for his own personal enjoyment he can create new innovative inventions, he can do things for his own ambition and wealth. He can lead a nation - they never say that he's an evil leader, he might be a fantastic one. He can run a successful business - who doesn't want to? And they never say he's an evil corporate exec. He can send anyone to prison - they never say he actually does. He has the power to let everyone die if he doesn't hand out vaccinations - they never says he lets them die or that he manipulates people with his hold over them. He can guide missiles and hit targets - they never specify who he's using the weapons against, why he's using them, or if it's for defense or assault.

It's far more ambiguous and subtle than the music video's showing two clear-cut different sides of humanity.
