In Roman myth, Jupiter was the king of the gods (the Pantheon) ruler over earth and air with his home at Mount Olympus. I think Jewel writes about Jupiter because she is writing about a love that is larger than life, " To wander on the continent of his skin suggests that." She is sees him and burns with love, she can't believe she's with him, she's him as a god and feels like she could do anything, even swallow the moon. Why not, he rules there? But she knows tha'ts crazy and she knows it's because of him. The line "Take these stars from my crown" could be that she wants him to ground her and wants them to both just be on the same level for a moment, but passion has gone to their heads. But mostly it makes me think that alot of times in myth people were deified or turned into stars and constellations that we know today, and I think that is what that means, that to love such a person lifts her up, makes her feel like a goddess. I think that Jewel is simply saying how love can make a god or goddess out of anyone, and that Venus, goddess of love, knew that very well, and that who knows in who's eyes you are a god or goddess to? |

I think that this song is about a relationship where possibly both people are argumentative or maybe she brings that side out of side of him too, he is getting frustrated now because she is possesive or jealous- the crowded room and the wave that drowns the whole town sugggests to me a feeling of suffocation no matter where he goes, it will even reach him over the power lines that the wave will take out. They will even fight long distance and box the stars, from mars because her emotions are so strong. She has an intense and violent love for him and the night turns a perfect shade of dark blue. Thats kind of how I see it but I think no matter what the writer really has in mind, words can always be left to so many interpretations.... Thats what great about it- sometimes there is no one answer. |
