I’ve listened to this song for years and it’s only now dawning on me that it’s about child abuse... The singer seems to narrate someone who is literally about to end his life due to the trauma endured during his childhood. The “ego” when looked at through Freudian terms, is responsible for mediating and keeping a person organized. “There goes my ego” would indicate he’s no longer capable of functioning like a normal person. “There goes my pie in the sky” which is a phrase that represents something good that someone says will happen but is highly unlikely. This indicates that his only hopes (which are already far fetched to begin with) are even further away than initially perceived. That’s just two of the lines! A lot of the song plus the cover art itself speak for itself when taken into this context. Heavy stuff!
I wanted to correct an error, so, yes. I did. S... so? The video's message is really simple, that's what makes it so enticing. You're projecting ("harassing"; "degenerate").
I'm kidding. It's a thing I say about other bands when they sound like other bands. Like I'd say about Puddle of Mudd - "I liked this band better when they were called Nirvana."
Not thought police, you're typing these things almost every single week and have been for the past year. I checked your profile, I don't think that's harassment; if it were, everyone who clicked usernames on YT would have a lawsuit on their record. I'm not smug, it's not about freedom of speech. I never said you couldn't say what you are; I was responding to your comments' popularity by addressing the issues with them, expecting a troll. Instead, I've gathered you're, again, genuinely not well.
Well, assuming you're a man, you obviously aren't going to have feet that look like Jessica's. And assuming you're a woman, if you had feet like Jessica's, you would not be wondering why men like her feet so much because your own feet would have experienced similar attention from men.
I do not have a foot fetish, but beautiful feet on a woman is something 40% of men consider very important. Women with average to ugly feet are at a major disadvantage. Also, this video is very much focused on Jessica's feet, so do not be surprised that so many men...and women apparently...are commenting on her ridiculously pretty feet.
I can't get where this effort to troll is coming from... Yeah, yeah, your love for Jessica Stroupe's feet, sure, whatever. I also can't get why your comments are being thumbed up. They're sexist, irrelevant, and degenerate.
The issue with you pretending I've said or insinuated something I quite clearly haven't, which all others can go back and see for themselves, is... well, the fact they can. It's nothing to do with your fetish. It is to do with how centric you are to it, how you objectify / compartemalize women as to suit it, and your reaction to someone addressing these things. You simply remind me of McMichael, how he acted concerning his fetish. He appropriated it to everything he could.
I'm on the internet? R... really, I am? Waa. I don't see your point. Behind every screen there is a person. It seems you take the protection such brings as means to perpetuate sexism and be spam-degenerate. You wouldn't say what you say here to Jessica Stroupe in-person, nor anyone else. Pretty justified to assume. Women aren't porn, they are not objects to be dissected by your mind sexualizing, and I again do not see a point in your comparison besides more illogical sexism.
It would by law be taken up as sexual harassment. Try it, see for yourself. It's not because you have a preference. Firstly, a fetish isn't a preference. I think you belong in jail or to be helped because making dozens and dozens and dozens of comments on dozens and dozens and dozens of videos over the period of years concerning one, specific fetish out-of-context (objectifying women, again as explained earlier... I needn't repeat myself) suggests so.

Either or works for me! Pleasure doing business.

Her eyes > Her feet

Some weird comments guess some ppl just don't have feet of their own lol good song btw

oh... thats clever...
Jessica Stroup has amazingly gorgeous feet.
I find it rather traumatizing that the beautiful Jessica Stroup is presented and all people have to say is nice feet. Ya'll have some weird fetishes.
I do not have a foot fetish, but beautiful feet on a woman is something 40% of men consider very important. Women with average to ugly feet are at a major disadvantage. Also, this video is very much focused on Jessica's feet, so do not be surprised that so many men...and women apparently...are commenting on her ridiculously pretty feet.
I'm not gonna touch that. The statement or her feet.
How about we compromise and say her feet are deliciously musical?

I take it the director has a thing for feet

Foot fetish
This had to have been directed by Quentin Tarantino

i never have understood the whole foot thing. got nothing against it but i just dont find feet attractive. what am i missing out on lol
You are not missing out on anything. 40% of men like pretty feet, the remaining 60%, like you, are indifferent, or in some cases turned-off by feet.
This feet shit is disgusting. The song, however, is bad ass.
