    This song is amazing. There are little things you can tell she did in order to make her voice sound the way it does. Full of emotion whether it's happy or sad. For example when she sings the line, "leave to the other girls to play" you could tell she's smiling as she says that line.

    For I've been a temptress too long
    Just...
    Give me a reason to love you
    Give me a reason to be a woman
    I just wanna be a woman
    From this time, unchained
    We're all looking at a different picture
    Through this new frame of mind
    A thousand flowers could bloom
    Move over and give us some room, yeah
    Give me a reason to love you
    Give me a reason to be a woman
    I just want to be a woman
    So don't you stop being a man
    Just take a little look
    From our side when you can
    Sow a little tenderness
    No matter if you cry
    Give me a reason to love you
    Give me a reason to be a woman
    I just want to be a woman
    It's all I wanna be, is all a woman
    For this is the beginning
    Of forever and ever
    It's time to move over
    It's all I want to be
    I'm so tired of playing
    Playing with this bow and arrow
    Gonna give my heart away
    Leave it to the other girls to play
    For I've been a temptress too long

    This song reminds me of being stoned, seeing the whole world as one big dream but in a good way.
    We were about to play live in Melbourne Aus as a support act and I was so stoned I thought my instrument was shrinking.
    But it was all good.
    Life was a never ending party. I didn't grow up in a normal way.
    Now the world is about to change forever, humanity is about to be shocked into a new reality.
    I don't think I will ever be able to shrink back to my former self.
    Problem is, I was happier then. Just know we all have better times coming once the truth comes out.

    "Glory Box"
    I'm so tired of playing
    Playing with this bow and arrow
    Gonna give my heart away
    Leave it to the other girls to play
    For I've been a temptress too long
    Just...
    Give me a reason to love you
    Give me a reason to be a woman
    I just wanna be a woman
    From this time, unchained
    We're all looking at a different picture
    Through this new frame of mind
    A thousand flowers could bloom
    Move over and give us some room
    Give me a reason to love you
    Give me a reason to be a woman
    I just wanna be a woman
    [INSTRUMENTAL]
    So don't you stop being a man
    Just take a little look from outside when you can
    Show a little tenderness
    No matter if you cry
    Give me a reason to love you
    Give me a reason to be a woman
    It's all I wanna be is all woman
    For this is the beginning of forever and ever
    It's time to move over...

    Strangest thing happened to me on the way to work involving this song.
    Was walking to work, about 15 minutes it takes and this song came on as I was listening to the second half of Dummy.
    Closing in on work, placed around the town centre, with Glory Box playing, the lyric "I'm tired of playing with this bow and arrow" ringing through my ear and I see two lads who I know well. I take my earphones out to speak to them and, nearby, a busker is playing his own music with a familiar sounding bass-line.
    I look around and I hear the lyric "I'm so tired, tired of playing with this bow and arrow". And I do the sharpest double take known to man, I couldn't believe my ears. What an insane coincidence.
    Shows how universal this song is though, brilliant.
