Wendy,

Awesome breakdown of the song. Although based around the main theme of Cancer, we can still receive it so differently based on our individual history, expectation, tastes, culture, experience...... still we're all over the place as far as the authors motivation, the actors, the victims and our own....and we are ALL RIGHT.

Allowing for more listeners that freedom to tap into the song more emotionally is what makes a song "successful."

"Shock value"? Hmmmm, if you have to use words to "shock," there's something missing in the music, story, lyric......

I believe it worked in this song but for reasons not yet mentioned. Personally, I feel, one, the author has a foul mouth and uses "F***" quite liberally and/or the frustration of never having sex with this object of his desire, created the outburst.

Am I right? Is Wendy? David? Bob?.....

Yes, we are....and No we are not.

That's the beauty of music. It's NEVER wrong in how it makes you feel. And WE are NEVER wrong in feeling that way!
