heh, your comment (chris_dixon) confused me a bit - are you referring to "lonely no more?" cause while i'm not sure if that's the first song he ever wrote in even his solo career (although it was the first to be released), it's certainly not the first throughout his entire music career. as far as i'm concerned, i believe rob thomas wrote every song on the MB20 albums. got to love him. :)
but for the record, i definitely agree that "lonely no more" is a very boy band song, you couldn't have said it better, that was one of the first thoughts i got when i heard it. however, "when the heartache ends" is probably my favorite song off his solo album, and i'm surprised no one's commented, too. i guess it doesn't need much of an explanation though...
the narrator's described life in that it's hard (no kidding), but when the suffering is over, he's asking someone to still be with him, to endure it.
