Talk:2870: Love Songs
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 actively insulting the other party (but indifference by the target could be the attitude).
- Though for X=Y items (e.g. "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)
not pictured: Jim Steinman songs, which spend most of their time out of the XY plane. 172.69.214.109 00:14, 21 December 2023 (UTC)
