as far as i know, she wrote this over her divorce, she even cut her hair and dyed it too, it must have been really hard, no matter how gorgeous, talented, unique female you are, no one of us is saved from pain
@pentas exactly. it's the most depressing song in the entire world, and at the same time the most beautiful. shirley should go down in history as one of the greatest talents of our time.
I'd never hear it until tonight. I've listened to it like 20 times. It's beautiful, touching, , poignant, and so sad. I get it, Shirley...I GET it ....xoxo
LYRIC: You tell me you don't love me Over a cup of coffee And I just have to look away A million miles between us Planets crash into dust I just let it fade away I'm walking empty streets Hoping we might meet I see your car parked on the road The light on at your window I know for sure that you're home But I just have to pass on by So no, of course we can't be friends Not while I'm still this obsessed I guess I always knew the score This is how our story ends I smoke your brand of cigarettes And pray that you might give me a call I lie around in bed all day just staring at the walls Hanging round bars at night Wishing I had never been born And give myself to anyone who wants to take me home So no, of course we can't be friends Not while I still feel like this I guess I always knew the score This is where our story ends You left behind some clothes My belly somersaults When I pick them off the floor My friends all say they're worried I'm looking far too skinny I've stopped returning all their calls And no of course we can't be friends Not while I'm still so obsessed I want to ask where I went wrong But don't say anything at all It took a cup of coffee To prove that you don't love me
I forgot about Garbage. I used to like that CD with the song "I'm only happy when it rains". It takes a long time to grow old. I read that once on a quilt in a thrift store in Asheville NC and looking at her in this video I beleive it.
I saw Shirley in this tour at a festival in Atlanta.I loved her look in all white with the black boots and this hair, she just looked so stunningly like porcelain with a real kick🌹the only way you can describe this woman is just unbelievably beautifully unique🌹
beautiful live!! Shirley Manson,, we see you're a very sensitive person, with deep emotions, all i can say is that maybe you were never wrong but love is a complicated thing and you show us you are a true passionate woman. thank you for being so human and let feel it through your song. A french fan , sorry for my mistakes
So no of course we can't be friends Not while I'm still this obsessed... You just feel the emotion in this song and Shirls sings it so well. We've all been there.
This song kicks so much ass Garbage had to get their boots re-soled so they could continue to kick even more ass! Bravo! Cup of Coffee is one of my ALL TIME FAVS!
"I'm walking empty streets hoping we might meet I see your car parked on the road Hanging round bars at night wishing I had never been born And give myself to anyone who wants to take me home It took a cup of coffee To prove that you don't love me" Wow. So heartbreakingly strong and true.
so no of course we can't be friends not while i still feel like this i guess i always knew the score this is where our story ends yes true words.... really true....
She also a great actress. I am watching her play a terminator that is head of a corporation. She plays this straight faced looking boss out to kill John Connor on the reruns of season two of-Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles .Watch it if you can find it.
I really like how on the video we could actually hear the performance. A lot of times the random cheering during always makes me turn away from watching a live show.
The most honest break up song ever written.
That's not stupid , simple song about broken heart.. That's REAL song about broken heart. That is what feel people in this situation.
😂😂😂😂and who is saying the opposite 😅😅
How many current or past artist can sound this good live? Absolutly love her!
Comment still relevant.
All these years later and this song, this performance, still has the power to leave one absolutely gutted.
Everyone who have ever been dumped can feel every word from Shirley's voice...
I simply love their lyrics.....how can´t someone not feel devastated listening this song?
as far as i know, she wrote this over her divorce, she even cut her hair and dyed it too, it must have been really hard, no matter how gorgeous, talented, unique female you are, no one of us is saved from pain
Outstanding drum work by Butch Vig. I still can't get enough of this song.
This piano at the end is so heart-breaking - Shirley you are the goddess... there is no live song so perfect ever....
I've seen them live. Shirley Manson is even more amazing live. It's hard to capture how awesome she is with a video camera. Love this song.
beautiful performance and interpretation; with such great vocals: shirley's voice is really flawless here
@pentas exactly. it's the most depressing song in the entire world, and at the same time the most beautiful. shirley should go down in history as one of the greatest talents of our time.
I'd never hear it until tonight. I've listened to it like 20 times. It's beautiful, touching, , poignant, and so sad. I get it, Shirley...I GET it ....xoxo
This song always touches my heart. It reminds me the worst emotions which I've ever felt. So much suffering because of one person, what a jeer...
Jellonka Same.. same....
Thats amazing sound for a live gig. NO gig ive been to in england has ever had the artist sound that clear. Amaze.
Gorgeous song, one of my all-time favourites. Great live performance. Thanks!
This gives me chills every single time.
LYRIC:
You tell me you don't love me
Over a cup of coffee
And I just have to look away
A million miles between us
Planets crash into dust
I just let it fade away
I'm walking empty streets
Hoping we might meet
I see your car parked on the road
The light on at your window
I know for sure that you're home
But I just have to pass on by
So no, of course we can't be friends
Not while I'm still this obsessed
I guess I always knew the score
This is how our story ends
I smoke your brand of cigarettes
And pray that you might give me a call
I lie around in bed all day just staring at the walls
Hanging round bars at night
Wishing I had never been born
And give myself to anyone who wants to take me home
So no, of course we can't be friends
Not while I still feel like this
I guess I always knew the score
This is where our story ends
You left behind some clothes
My belly somersaults
When I pick them off the floor
My friends all say they're worried
I'm looking far too skinny
I've stopped returning all their calls
And no of course we can't be friends
Not while I'm still so obsessed
I want to ask where I went wrong
But don't say anything at all
It took a cup of coffee
To prove that you don't love me
Thank you! I’m partly deaf so I really appreciate when people put down the lyrics ❣️
Such a heart aching sound. I Love it!
God I never get tired of this beautiful song.
I forgot about Garbage. I used to like that CD with the song "I'm only happy when it rains". It takes a long time to grow old. I read that once on a quilt in a thrift store in Asheville NC and looking at her in this video I beleive it.
Beautiful song, beautiful music, beautiful lyrics.
I saw Shirley in this tour at a festival in Atlanta.I loved her look in all white with the black boots and this hair, she just looked so stunningly like porcelain with a real kick🌹the only way you can describe this woman is just unbelievably beautifully unique🌹
Excellent live version of a really cool song.
These lyrics are so sad that even though I love this song, I hardly ever listen to it, because it makes me feel very sad. I miss her so much
Как же ты прекрасна,Ширли!
beautiful live!! Shirley Manson,, we see you're a very sensitive person, with deep emotions, all i can say is that maybe you were never wrong but love is a complicated thing and you show us you are a true passionate woman. thank you for being so human and let feel it through your song.

This is such a beautiful song and she sounds amazing live. I love that she is so vulnerable with her lyrics. What girl hasn't felt like this?
У Ширли, Шикарные глаза!.
Love that theremin. Plus Shirley Manson is amazing.
Shame Beautiful Garbage wasn't a bigger hit. I think it is underrated.
im more of a pop person I think its their best album
