Over-Analyzing Music This Time

[sigmund__freud]

From "Escape" which appears to also be dubbed "The Piña Colada Song"

So I waited with high hopes
And she walked in the place
I knew her smile in an instant
I knew the curve of her face
It was my own lovely lady
And she said, "Oh it's you."
Then we laughed for a moment
And I said, "I never knew."I'm just curious... this is a song about a guy who is

I see your point...but, dude, it's just a song. I wouldn't read too much into it. *giggles*

What's my purpose if not to read too much into things?!?

[slbourne]

You know I've always wondered about that too. Here are two people who've been involved for a while and then they both decide to cheat on each other...they discover that they were going to cheat with each other and that's okay? It makes no sense. Wonder what the long term ramifications of this were?

[jerry_oconnell]

But in a way, what would be the point of getting mad at each other if they both messed up? "You were going to cheat on me!" *nasal voice* "So were you!"

That would get them nowhere. I don't know that I'd see them laughing, but it would certainly be an opportunity to sit down and talk about what's wrong in their relationship.

Or am I reading too much into it as well?

I think I'm inclined to agree with Jerry on this one - perhaps they recognize it as an opportunity to figure things out.

it says something that he answered the ad that she put in - they must have something in common after all, then?

and I think I wouldn't get mad at my significant other if I was out to cheat as well. why should I be the only one having any fun?

See? You shouldn't have thrown that drink on me, baby. I just got you confused with your evil twin. ;)

I thought your icon looked familiar? you know you loved having me pour ice down your pants ;*

I should let Orli in on that secret. the #1 way to turn Jer on: soda down the pants. ;)
