I Love You

Repetition can make anything meaningless.

I can't tell if this song is horribly sardonic or horribly sad...Kind of an older "Only In Dreams"

I think that anyone who has a tendency of feeling things a little too deeply has felt this way before. I mean, when you're feeling those first pangs of a crush, and that person is all you can think about... Yeah, I've felt like that before.

nice way of saying it, Mackensie. i know exactly what you mean with the "feeling thing too deeply" part

I've felt like this a lot of times in my life, just kept doing the same mistake over and over, so I can fully understand this song. No idea if is just sarcasm or sadness.

I actually have this visual in my head whenever I listen to this song. This is the simplest format I know to get this visual across but I find it halarious.

Okay, this guy takes his crush to the movies after a long period of just droning over her. They sit down with their popcorn, the previews come on, and he kind of starts to get nervous and begins to perspire profusely. He turns to her out of anxiety, and is at a loss for words. He figures just to come out and say it... (You can actually hear the panting in the background of this poor guy... kind of scary...) I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you

I only just met you before, but I can't understand you don't want me more.

You may-be think I'm to smart and wierd, but that should only make you want to hear that,

I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you

(At this point like any girl really, she starts to get kind of freaked out by the guy's shaking hands, and heavy breathing... really kind of bothersome... )

You make me feel really unsure, but that should only make you feel secure. Although we've only known eachother a bit already, I can't sleep at night and I feel like shit

At the end she rejects him and then he starts to go into a seizure. At this point the ambulance, a kind of wailing on the guitar that sounds like sirens enter the track at this point, takes him away but not before he screams out "I loooooove yoooouu" from the back of the ambulance, which can also be heard at nearing the dawn of the track..

Yeah, it's kind of a weird visual, but it works, man. Perhaps this song is just a novelty of some kind geared to make fun of stalkerish, psycho guys?? I don't know. Either way, I firmly believe that they should make a video based on my interpretation. I would laugh my ass off!

I really like the lyrics to this song, especially the first verse. It's easy to relate to. A lot of times when you are first in love with someone, you wonder if it's too soon, and you hold back from saying the words. Still, in your mind, you keep thinking "I love you" every time you see the person or they say something that pleases you. I think the song also conveys how people tend to reject advances from those who are a little smarter than average and as a result don't fit in. After all, if a jock were singing out an "I love you", I doubt too many girls would say no to that. I don't think this is necessarily a stalkeresque song (to hear a true stalker song, listen to "Hello I Love You" or "Crash Into Me").

Interesting side: The chorus of this song is played on the latest Pontiac Solstice commercial. When I first heard it, I thought it must be a 70's song. The vocals are actually deep and kind of seductive.

it's about feeling fragile and unsure because you love that person and you think he's too much for you..and you can't find the words to say what you feel ...I love the part "Already I can't sleep at night And I feel like shit"

I tend to believe this song is playing more on the sarcastic/creepy side than anything else. Either way, I love it. And the fact that I and so many other people can relate to it just makes it all the more funny. The Dandys have an excellent sense of subtle humour.

I don't take it as being bitterly sarcastic, but extremely creepy (I'm sure many women can attest to this). It seems as though "he" has briefly met this woman whom he's now consumed by just the thoughts of her, he thinks he's in love. We all know someone like that; men, you can relate to this and you know you're guilty of it.

And I don't think "she" takes it too well
