Overboard
There’s this song I’m listening to over and over right now. It’s Overboard by Ingrid Michaelson from her album Girls and Boys. I don’t know why I’m listening to it this much… or maybe I do, and I’m just not thinking about it.
Yes, that’s it.
Overboard talks about a very self-reliant and mature girl contemplating on ‘falling in love.’ She doesn’t yet realize that she has already fallen, which is the pull of this song, I suppose.
Isn’t it silly that she’s thinking about turning into some helpless, giddy lady just to feed this boy’s supposed machoman ego? (Men do like to be needed, don’t they? Rather, people in general.. hmm..)
I don’t understand it. :c
