That said, even if you were to just isolate the chorus, as a love song, it'd still possessive men's rights crap. Thus, the fact it's explicitly from the point of view of a stalker of whom Sting does not approve redeems it. Also, his hair, which looks like Gretsky's flow when he got to the LA Kings.<br /><br /><br />The one I feel really bad for is Michael Stipe - "The One I Love" is the first R.E.M. single he doesn't perform in mush-mouth, and people can't grab onto basic sarcasm. Buck even does minor arpeggios!Bennernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3953654.post-53860726636671307782014-10-22T12:37:52.131-04:002014-10-22T12:37:52.131-04:00You mean, like "Too Close," by Next, a/k...You mean, like "Too Close," by Next, a/k/a "Pardon My Dance-Floor Boner"?Adam B.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3953654.post-59704349017465369002014-10-22T11:31:23.035-04:002014-10-22T11:31:23.035-04:00I need to have you write a whole list of subtext-i...I need to have you write a whole list of subtext-into-text titles for me.

"One thing I ask of you is let me be the one you back that ass into" is a very polite way to suggest a bump n' grind. T.I. later says "I just watch and wait for you to salute," which implies he needs a clear sign before moving forward with the evening's activities.CWnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3953654.post-49749929634439598572014-10-21T12:53:40.526-04:002014-10-21T12:53:40.526-04:00From interviews I've seen, it seems like Sting...From interviews I've seen, it seems like Sting is disturbed as everyone else that there are people who think "Every Breath You Take" is a love song. Ew.<br /><br /><br />"Baby It's Cold Outside," the best weird date song that was written by a husband and wife to perform at parties! (And for the record, my preference is for the Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Jordan version.)Joseph Finnnoreply@blogger.com
