This is a devastating feeling, knowing your loved one is in love with someone else and still you are happy because she's happy and you don't wish nothing bad for both of then. "If I could be that guy, instead of me" states the feeling of wishing to be like him but not to replace him. I remembered this song because a little time ago I lost my crush to someone else. Some people
@snurkify Im not talking about historical processes, or influences because you're right its not relevant. Just saying that Beatles are appreciated with good reason and they certainly do not lack "that emotional touch".
Mark is the Cyrano de Bergerac of modern times. Such panache; which traces back to Late Latin pinnaculum, “small wing”. A broken wing at that. As in a bird. That has wings. And we all know "I Like Birds". You're welcome.
The beautiful part of this song is that there is not a single bad tough about "the other guy", he doesn't want nothing bad for him. He just want to be (like) him.
This version is just wonderful. A girl from the voice brought me here. She mixed the French version from Cocciante and this one and her voice is just perfect
"I'm nothing like what i'd like to be, I'm nothing much I know it's true" Such deep lyrics because everyone, may or may not realise it, can relate to those words. Deep down everyone wants to be a little better.
Just realised how old this song is, feels like only months ago that it was released. Still one of the most beautiful songs I have had the pleasure of hearing in my life.
This must be the saddest song I've listened so far. It really translates the feeling of completely giving up on yourself for someone, to the point of wishing to be someone else.
