I really want to hear other people’s interpretations of this song or just Goldberg in general. I don’t think its title is literal, but Marvin still had to have done something to ms Goldberg since in “Marvin takes a victory shower” the chorus sings “poor miss Goldberg” so I’m not sure
This is a scenario in Marvin’s mind. He wants to have sex with Miss Goldberg (or r4pe her) to reinforce his fake heterosexuality (cuz she is “perfect womanhood” to him) this is why everything feels a bit off, it’s like he made a play in his mind of how it will go (for example in the line “hi miss goldberg at your desk” he is setting a location kinda like in theater) the act of r4ping her is represented by Marvin taking her sunglasses (which is something she wears throughout the whole musical) and putting them on. The sunglasses part can have multiple interpretations. Also the line “Marvin always gets the things he wants. Except the things he wants.” Means that Marvin really wanted to look behind Miss Goldberg’s glasses because he thought he’d find something and ended up realizing she’s just a normal woman.
He is Imaging this, in the 1985 version of this musical it feels kinda like she’s grooming her while in the 1979 version this feels more like a fantasy he made to convince himself he’s straight
@@Mimi-c3e1w this is the first of a triology of musicals, the other two are the march of falsettos and falsetto land ( both of these musicals were turned into one in the 2016 revival and named falsettos)
@@lunarlunar9405 I knew that part! I actually just saw a local theatre do falsettos (the revival version) using most of the lines that the 2016 cast made up :)
Marvin’s voice in this song is straight up addicting. The lines “now move” are just so cool sounding
What a title
2:05 is where scene 5 starts

I think he steals her glasses (edit: cuz throughout the whole song he's obsessed with them and her eyes)

@@joyunderhiswingsi think the glasses might be a metaphor, but im not sure
the first lyrics are “the rape of ms goldberg:by marvin” i consider that to be referring to this whole song like it’s fiction, like a play
some people say it's marvin "imagining" a role reversal in his head and that he's implied to be the victim
