Your descriptive text is so descriptive that it feels jarring, in relation to how subjective is the topic. That could be just discretion of yours, to talk about this from afar, and it would be a perfect reason. Still, this jump between objective and subjective is odd to look at lol

What I think about these songs is complicated, since so many songs have been written already to describe what is being described. So many that I have a problem with overuse. I recognize the substance though. But I find it difficult to truly relate here, out of the blue, as I carry too many songs already :)

So many songs that, at this point, I tend to relate more to the absence of lyrics than their presence, as it gives me room to expand beyond overuse. One famous instrumental example I have, to deal with emotional complexity:

I enjoy many of the lyrics and some of the music, but the pattern on songs like " Someone You Loved" drives me up a wall. It's been around almost 40 years and has been virally popular in the last 10-15. It is just soooo overused and cliché to the point of being annoying.

I think his songs are brilliantly written and he’s a very talented artist, but I cannot stand his voice. His songs are played on the radio a lot here and I always switch stations when they play.

Those lyrics don't and will never speak to me.

You plan to never lose someone you love? That's ambitious of you.

@Smashingdoozy Consider the rather firm phrasing from the anon, I don't think it means what you suggested. But it is definitely intriguing
