There are a lot of lyrics concerning love songs (mostly similar words), one might not like the genre, but quirky. I admit, I had to look it up on Google Translate, but still didn’t get what you mean. My intention for these lyrics were to put several kinds of emotions in them, like a girls band, with one beauty and one average girl. The vocals are different in quality, and they have a different taste. But because they like singing, and together that sounded smooth, they continue singing. But then the Beauty died in an accident. That gave such a shock to the other girl that she couldn’t sing no more. And then I memorized the meaning or legacy of this band. What is so quirky about that? Explain that to me, if you want. And thanks for the rest of your comment!

As I said, Hans, I have enjoyed EVERYTHING else you've done in my seven years here on the forum. You are a fine songcrafter and you have my utmost respect. But this song was too weird for me. I liked the song itself, but it does not fit the lyrics IMHO. And the lyrics weren't up to your usual standard - again, IMHO. You usually choose "big" topics for your lyrics, that may have had something to do with it. However, no one else has echoed my criticism, so it's entirely possible that I am wrong. I fully realize that. Nonetheless, I am sticking to my opinion that you swung and missed this time out (baseball analogy). I could've avoided drama and just given it a thumbs up, but to me that weakens all the good things I've said about your music over the years. If there is no risk to commenting, where is the reward? Again, I'm sure your next song will be smashing, as usual. But not this one. At least not for me.
