Something Stupid

Actually Frank Sinatra is the one who COVERED this song. It was written by C. Carson Parks and originally recorded in 1966 by Parks and his wife Gaile Foote, as "Carson and Gaile".

I dig this song. The video is super fun. Nicole & Robbie's voices work really well together. I believe this was originally done by Frank and Nancy Sinatra...I may be wrong. I love the words, too; this song is just fun.

soft, oldies, makes me smile each time i heard this song. Nicole's voice is as sexy as herself

dis song is very nice..their voices go really well 2gether...

Yeh, its a great song! And yeh it was done by Frank and Nancy

The lyrics for this romantic, soft and delightful song were not so classic when Frank Sinatra first sang them. But with Robbie Williams and Nicole Kidman's own version, they strike the modern ears and are without a doubt one of the most romantic ones ever heard by people since it got released.

Basically, it says: "Oh no, I did it again: I love you!"

This is a really beautiful song. The fact that it was sung by both a male and a female really makes it work all the better. Its about true love of two lovers declaring their love for one another without taking their lover for granted. Its about treasuring each moment of their lives together as each other thinks that they are better than they deserve and for that reason they treasure each other a lot in light of this, afriad to lose each other. The song is so beautiful that it was sung by both male and the female counterpart, as it is like both of them declaring their equally strong love for each other.

beautiful

I think this song is clearly about two lovers, who start with no strings attached, as You can see in the first verse:

"I know I stand in line Until you think You have the time To spend an evening with me And if we go Someplace to dance I know that There's a chance You won't be Leaving with me"

In further lines it occures that even though they didn't want a relationship, they fell in love with each other, but they're to shy to admit it while sober, so as they become braver after the alcohol, they finally say it.

"Then afterwards We drop into A quiet little place And have a drink or two And then I go And spoil it all By saying something stupid Like I love you"

They are stressing over admiting what they feel for each other, cause they are worried that the other person is not feeling the same.

"I can see it in your eyes That you despise The same old lines You heard the night before And though it's Just a line to you For me it's true And never seemed So right before"

They try to find the right words, not to get misunderstood, they try to postpone it.

"I practice every day To find some Clever lines to say To make the meaning Come through But then I think I'll wait until the Evening gets late And I'm alone with you"

They show how everything is perfect, but they're afraid that they're going to spoil the night, by admiting the truth.

"The time is right Your perfume Fills my head The stars get red And oh the night's so blue And then I go And spoil it all By saying something stupid Like I love you"

This song is about being in psychotherapy and falling for your therapist. It's how you think you love someone where you shouldnt, but those things happen naturally in these settings. It's like being one of her clients and waiting in line to get seen, then knowing she's at work and she hears same crap every evening from her other clients. Prepping for therapy and then looking for words to confess and regretting it afterwards. Haha, doubt anyone will agree on this.

Good song, but it's a little strange that Robin Williams sings it. It's not precisely his style.
