Why doesn't vanessa want to be a bride?..lol

i was talking about the song

There doesn't seem to be an abstract way to discuss the song without mentioning her views/choices, unless you're picking at its structure, rhythm, etc. You have her whole declaration woven in the song, and well, it's the title, too.

You could say that the song doesn't want to be a bride. But people might think you're crazy.

^ Made me laugh. You know, she has another song that wants to walk a thousand miles. I feel so bad for it, though, because I don't think songs have legs. Poor song.

True. It does, but rolling just isn't the same.

I take the song to be about where she is NOW.  It can change.  I mean, Gene Simmons just married Shannon Tweed after what, over two decades?

All of this could fall by the wayside if she meets that "someone", as it will for me should I decide to again(I was married once). When you're in love--really there--the decision can be incredibly clear.

I know married people who are happy.  I know people who just live together who are miserable.  There is no science to it.  I say, do what is good for YOU.

I see so many people who are influenced too much either by tradition or the so-called "progressive" bucking against it and never really look inward to find the truth and what truly works for them.  It is no one's beeswax except the people involved.

I dunno, IMO I feel that being married kicks everything into a different, higher gear than just living together.  It's like saying "I'm not in a BAND, I just play music with 3 or 4 other dudes", like where is the identity of the union?

I don't mean to rain on your parade, but Jen just seems to be a little overly positive for it to be realistic.

i was being sarcastic

this is my best friend's favorite song, and she wants to get married. She describes it as the difference between being a bride and being a wife. I thought that was a nice take on the song.

that is a nice sentiment!  I brought my sister to the show in Boston over the summer.  When the show was over she said," you know what song I really liked but I don't necessarily agree with?  That one about not wanting to be married."
I think it's a great song and reaches people on many levels because I think we all want that great love, regardless of whether or not it comes with a piece of paper.
