I need to know which axis means “does the ‘me’ like them” because I fail to understand it.--172.71.134.164 23:53, 20 December 2023 (UTC)

Pick a song you know that isn't near the (X=Y) line, and it should explain it.
e.g. "That don't impress me much", at centre-top. Clearly the other party is trying to impress (likes the 'me') but Shania is ambivalent in response (she doesn't actually love their being a rocket-scientist, nor hate it).
"Killing me softly..." is from 'me' having love, whilst "You're so vain..." is a tively indulting the other party (but indifference by the target could be the attitude).
Though for X=Y items ("I will survive", it's declared to be an unamicable but ultimately mutually-acceptable split) the way round of course doesn't matter. 172.69.194.224 00:12, 21 December 2023 (UTC)

I'm hoping "I Will Survive" isn't a reference to the Zootopia abortion comic. 172.68.174.82 23:56, 20 December 2023 (UTC)
