    Ooh... yeah. I love that one. Hearing it live will give you shivers. 

    If I hadn't gotten so flustered when I met Page, I would have asked him what he meant by the end of it. That kills me. Is he upset at the end because her not caring broke his heart or because he knows he broke her heart based on her flippant response to the breakup? Thoughts?

    I'm going to be listening to this all day now. My word that voice and those lyrics.

  • I’ve been on a binge BNL’s again since we discussed them other day. 
    The meaning I get from that part of the song is her response isn’t flippant at all. She’s pissed off, hurt and says all those things out of pride. So he knows he broke her heart. That’s my interpretation, anyway.

    Yeah, that's what I meant by "flippant," but perhaps the word carries the wrong connotation. I meant it as false or superficial. Either way, I think you're probably right.

    *sigh* Vintage BNL. Good stuff.

    What can be more desperate than a woman who is begging another woman to stay away from her man who wants the OTHER woman?
     

    Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
    I'm begging of you please don't take my man
    Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
    Please don't take him just because you can

    Your beauty is beyond compare
    With flaming locks of auburn hair
    With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green
    Your smile is like a breath of spring
    Your voice is soft like summer rain
    And I cannot compete with you
    Jolene

    He talks about you in his sleep
    And there's nothing I can do to keep
    From crying when he calls your name
    Jolene

    And I can easily understand
    How you could easily take my man
    But you don't know what he means to me
    Jolene

    Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
    I'm begging of you please don't take my man
    Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
    Please don't take him just because you can

    You could have your choice of men
    But I could never love again
    He's the only one for me
    Jolene

    I had to have this talk with you
    My happiness depends on you
    And whatever you decide to do
    Jolene

    Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
    I'm begging of you please don't take my man
    Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
    Please don't take him even though you can
    Jolene, Jolene

    Oh man. I wouldn't have made the connection if you hadn't explained, but absolutely. Good call.

    I was looking for a song for Jaimie's question about the most mushy, vomit inducing, cheesy love song and I saw this one in the related videos!

    It must feel really good to be his absolute last choice.

    Fifteen minutes left to throw me together
    For mister right now, not mister forever
    Don't know why I even try when I know how it ends
    Looking like another: "maybe we could be friends."
    I've been leaving it up to fate
    It's my life, so it's mine to make
