Lyric discussion by elianne 

Cover art for About You Now lyrics by Miranda Cosgrove

I was watching degrassi on the n yesterday (i just got home from school and needed a degrassi fill), but between episodes i saw this music video and my first reaction was ohhh my god i cannot believe she sings now.... anyway... at first i laughed then i started listening to the song and although it is very poppy and has straight forward lyrics it really reminded me of a boy i dated in high school. I was a senior and he was a junior and he adored me... he would have done anything for me. but i had never had a boy like him before... all the boys i dated before that were just jerks, and he was different... it scared me and that's where the "i had nothing to compare to" part reminds me of him. i got scared and ended things with him... he was really upset about it and didn't talk to me for weeks then we finally became friends again. and even though i ended things with him... i still think about him every single day... he was perfect to me. i don't think the "can we bring yesterday back around" is so literal, jake and i broke up in april and it still reminds me of him... it's like "wow, i was stupid... i didn't know a good thing when i had it". granted he has no idea i feel this way about him... lol idk sorry for my rant, that's just how it relates to me :)
