| Neil Diamond – I Am... I Said Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| It took me years before I realized this is what the line "I'm not a man who likes to swear" meant. I think what he's doing is saying "I am" to the world, affirming his existence despite the way the world seems to ignore him. But he also knows that this declaration is, in a conservative way, blasphemous. Whether or not he's directing cries to god, the song is a testament to emotional conflict that just about anyone can relate to. | |
