| Regina Spektor – AB Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
This is my first song comment wish me luck =). To me this song demonstrates a conflict with the main character whether that’s representative of Regina herself or just a construct. The main character wants so badly to just let go and loose control which is represented in the figurative image of "[falling] down the stairs" and "[letting] go of the banister" but finds that she over thinks things which is evident in the fact that she thinks about leaving her blood group AB "in case of emergency contact". This may signify Regina's need to write and perform which involves letting go and expressing her emotions but her finding it difficult due to being to self conscious and to concerned with how other people may react "clasping their mouths real tight". Alternatively it could reflect how the main character has a destructive part of her personality which she feels the desire to express but finds that she doesn’t know how to do so in a productive way "without hurting [herself]" and other people. I think there is allot more to this song but I am feeling a little lazy, so people please add some more alternative comments. |
