'This is a very popular song. If you want to get an idea of how hard it is for people to love themselves, pose this question, "You know the song "Greatest Love of All" by Whitney Houston. What does she say is the greatest love of all?" Many know the song well, but can't give the correct answer, because they are too uncomfortable to have heard the real message.'
@Sunnyhill I was just thinking about this -- how the real message of this song is about self love but so many ppl think it's a sort of "save the children's athem"...which it can be too because we need self love to truly ever "save the children".
I came to good old songmeanings.net (now.com? Or this a mandela effect?) and see this comment and feel so validated haha. I used to love this website when I was younger, now rap genius is the go-to maybe I'm screaming into the void but I hate rap genius....
