because something has just happened to make me extremely upset, i shall come up with a meaningless musing that has absolutely nothing to do with, and is far from the matter that's bugging me.
i shall dissect lyrics from boyband songs! tearing them down in their inanity, proving to the world why they are an almost extinct breed. (damn those cockroaches!)
(taken from
as long as you love me, by backstreet boys)
I don't care who you are Where you're from What you did As long as you love methis makes no sense to me at all. because for people as popular as them (or at least during their heyday), they would have LOTS of people who loved them. are they supposed to get into polygamous relationships with every single one of them?
besides that, this reeks of desperation. is one to accept any tom, dick, and harry that comes along? (insert female equivalents for male readers, since the only one i can think of is harriet.) i would definitely give a damn about what kind of person my partner is. would you love a pus pool? i don't think i could. neither could i accept a bigot. there is definitely something wrong with this song and if anyone should croon this tune to you, you might want to evaluate your self-worth since s/he might be doing it wrong.
next up, i feel bad doing this to savage garden because they're not really a boyband per se, and their songs are usually much more decent. but this line really bugs me!
I knew I loved you before I met youi've got a simple question. how do you love someone/something that you don't even know exists? this baffles me. unless we take it to be literal, meaning that you might like an online friend (heh..) and fall in love even before seeing each other in a real setting. or the first "you" might be in reference to an idealised concept of a lover, which has been actualised and manifested in the second "you".
ok i take this way too seriously. but this immersion in frivolity is good for distraction.
mike just took up your time at
