She's So High

I prefer to think of this song as the guy isn't really in a different economic class as this girl, but rather he's putting her on a pedastal. He likes her, so everything she has/does is the best.

And then suddenly at the end of the song it turns out that she does like him, and he can't believe it because he always had always thought that she was too good for him.

I'm probably wrong, but sometimes I like to use my own meanings, rather than the actual meaning of the song =)

simple-You dont need to be fake to be beautiful :)

I don't think the guy in the song is necessarily of a lower economic background, though it is possible. I think it's more of a social barrier. He likes this girl, but they come from different social groups. However, she's the real thing. She's one of those people who seems to have it all (First class and fancy free, She's high society, She's got the best of everything). He thinks she's perfect, too perfect for him, and thus he's placed her on this pedestol, comparing her to great women and a goddess. However, in reality, she isn't as "high above" him as he thinks she is. She does call to speak to him, and says something that seems urealistic to him. I think this song illustrates what's going on in his head right after she calls. He's in disbelief that his perfect girl has called him up to talk to him. The song gives a feeling such euphoria, that when he says nothing is going to happen, you know he's lying to himself. He just can't believe he's got the girl.

I heard this song in the film "She's Out of My League" at a preview tonight.

It fits perfectly. The movie and this song is about a geeky guy with low self-esteem that finds himself the object of affection of a total babe.

I love the video. She's some sort of super hero.

The singer, who I could imagine as myself in younger oddball form, is crushing on this woman and blown away by (his perception of) her physical attractiveness and social clout. He obviously feels like he's out of grounds to even be near her, putting her on a pedestal as a goddess or uniquely legendary figure.

In the final verse, he's taken aback as she approaches him, a situation he totally overlooked; we're left observing him drifting into denial about the situation.

The optimistic read is that like Wheatus's "Teenage Dirtbag," the guy finds unexpectedly requited interest such that there's a possibility of a growing relationship with the woman.

I'll always love Max when I hear this song.

This song's good. I added a bunch of Tal Bachman songs a while ago - check em out

I feel so much like that song!

all i have to say is that this song is ingenious and i don't listen to the radio so i don't know if it's overplayed but i have heard it once and i love it.
