    Don’t be jealous folks I think she’s awesome. Everybody sings whatever will make them money and what they love and enjoy and it’s not your job to judge them just because you can’t sing.

    Kinda reminds you of Janis she's got the soulness of her. I don't care for a lot of females singers but she is dynamic. You don't hear songs like this to often but I think she knocked it out of the ballpark

      😅 That reminds me of a time when my ex and I were watching a local band in Texas, when their lead singer sang Janis Joplan's 'Take Another Little piece of My Heart'. When she was done, he turned to me and told me that I sang more like Janis than that girl did. I about fell on the floor over that compliment. I also sang Loretta Lynn, Patsy Cline, Etta James, Stevie Nicks, and Pat Benatar. I doubt I can sing anything now with my lung cancer, but I will try anyway, just to see how bad my voice is now.

    I think there’s another level to this. She’s frustrated with her partner & is blaming herself but what she really wants is someone who is man enough to be her equal.

    Awww, I love this song and I'm not mean, but I had to tell someone I was never going to love him, even though he kept trying and thought I could do no wrong. And I did feel like a bad seed because I couldn't love someone that loved me so much. I kept warning him, and then I did have to get mean. You sang about this so beautifully.

    I can’t believe someone as light-hearted and goofy as Rob Schneider could have had a child with such a depth of emotion and be such a dark horse. There is more feeling contained in one of her lines than many feel in a life time.

      Most comedians have a depth of emotion deeper than people realize. I've yet to meet a comedian that hasn't felt a deep, dark depression in their life at some point. It wouldn't surprise if Rob hasn't stared into that black abyss at least once or twice in his career. RIP Robin Williams.

      Nicole Newsome because there's a lot of people out there who are not responsible of your misery, and it's not fair to treat them badly without giving a damn about their feelings. It's doing the exact same thing people did to you, and making other suffer the way you did.

      Nicole Newsome I suppose so, then if you still see them tell them how you feel and if they don't understand, move away... If you don't mind acting without giving a damn with them it's a problem between you and them, but what I understood (maybe I was wrong, my bad my english isn't really good) is that you acted like that with everybody... And I think the rest of them don't deserve to pay for what you suffered.

I knew it was coming cause he was flirting with another girl, so I wrote "ok" and folded up his necklace in the note and gave it back. he threw the note at me and ended up sniffling all through class. afterwards I had him go off on me mad that I wasn't bawling about it. told me I was a mean bitch.
