[Sun_Down]

Um...where's the 'sweet' side of 'bittersweet' in that song? :?

My interpretation is that, Ben did not want to have the abortion, but he agreed to it because he loved his GF.

Sweet=Doing Anything for Love
Bitter=Loss of a life

Bitter=Loss of a life

That's pretty much what I gathered. They broke up not long after that, unsurprisingly.

 

[Weasels Ripped My Flesh]

Martha - Tom Waits

 

[Knightmare]

'The Rock Show'- Blink 182. Essentially a song about a past relationship with a girl that didn't work out for whatever reasons, but if he had the time again he'd do it all the same.

hahaha

 

[Knightmare]

Do you agree or not? Also, alot of Daniel bedinfield's stuff is kind of bittersweet.

 

[Misanthrope]

Yeah, Daniel Beddingfield's 'If You're Not the One' is kind of sappy, but definitely falls under the bittersweet tag.

 

[les norton]

Arghhhhhhh that song kills me too...

 

[Knightmare]

Yeah, Daniel Beddingfield's 'If You're Not the One' is kind of sappy, but definitely falls under the bittersweet tag.

It's crazy- the first time I heard it I thought "That sounds so much like something I would write!" The techno version isn't that bad.

Locomotion - Kylie Minogue
