Fame (What She's Wanting) Lyrics
Staring down from 30,000 feet above the planet
She gets the sense nothing's behind her anymore
Her quest for fame has left her nothing short of a fanatic
For the chance to be the one that we adore
Fame's what she's wanting
You can't go too far (when that's who you are...because)
Fame's what she's wanting
Not a face in the crowd just a disposable pop star
They called her princess cause they always knew she'd be a servant
Never having an ambition in her life
They all knew she end up just another loser's girlfriend
Who'd a thought she'd become a Jedi Knight
Bittersweet the taste of......
She gets the sense nothing's behind her anymore
Her quest for fame has left her nothing short of a fanatic
For the chance to be the one that we adore
You can't go too far (when that's who you are...because)
Fame's what she's wanting
Not a face in the crowd just a disposable pop star
Never having an ambition in her life
They all knew she end up just another loser's girlfriend
Who'd a thought she'd become a Jedi Knight

"They called her princess cause they always knew she'd be a servant" i love that line. this song is pretty self explainatory- she wants her 15 cminutes in the spotlight.
self explanitory? perhaps...it paints this picture of this girl who wants to sell out but she becomes a "jedi knight" which is an image that is the opposite of selling out....being a jedi is such a positive thing....makes you wonder why the song ends on such a positive note
I always took this as a slap in the face to whoever the girl is.
This girl gets lucky, ditches her "loser" boyfriend (probably the singer of the band), and becomes loved by everyone.
Wow, that's pretty much EXACTLY how I took it, myself! Of course, I can't have a story about a song and NOT related it to some stupid game that I'll never produce, but here goes...

Going back to the previous SR-71 song I commented on (Politically Correct), when I listen to this song, I imagine it being the theme for ANOTHER character from the same fighting game I'll likely never produce... but, in this case, I actually came up with an animated music video (all in my head, unfortunately), where said girl is basically living almost in squalor, but is...

For the line "They all knew she'd end up just another loser's girlfriend", it'll be the singer himself with the titular girl in front of him.
