| Alicia Keys – Like You'll Never See Me Again Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| Obvious meaning as has been said, but I too just had to comment on how amazingly done the vocal work is. Alicia Keys really nailed sounding so vulnerable while singing this. Fantastic song that really makes you think about living every day to its fullest and never forgetting to express just how much you love someone. | |
| Justin Timberlake – Losing My Way Lyrics | 18 years ago |

Rob may have one syllable too, but it's just a different way of saying the same name (Robert, Bob, Rob, Robby/ie, Bobby/ie etc....). There's nothing wrong with choosing Bob, that and John are two "faceless" names in American culture (very generic). Changing it to even Bobbie would have echos of Robert Kennedy to some older folks, and using Rob is kind of definitive in my eyes as well. But Bob...could be anybody. Maybe that's just how I see these names though. But the use of the name doesn't change the song for me at all. I never even though it was "silly" like some of you here have. I'm surprised the use of such a name would turn anyone off of a song. Anyway, to comment on the song, it's a very touching song and the meaning of which is plain as a summer day is bright. JT never had my respect as a member of N-Sync when my younger sister listened to them. And I was slow to adopt his previous album, as he sounded like a "wannabe" Michael Jackson. And though that is still true on his latest for the most part, I find myself enjoying his stories and overall "fun" in his songs. The beats don't hurt either. |
