| B.o.B – Airplanes Part 1 Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
I'm probably the only person in the world who's bothered by this, but it annoys me that the line is "Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars" includes the word like. Why take a perfectly good metaphor and turn it into a redundant simile? Airplanes are already like shooting stars. There's no need to pretend. It would make sense to pretend airplanes are shooting stars and simply remaining silent instead of singing like would keep the cadence of the song intact. Oh well. Otherwise it's a deep and moving song about how rough life is for successful musicians. |
