    0:07 I've never heard a song that more accurately and succinctly establishes its premise. In the first 20 seconds of the song, we learn everything we need to know:
    1. Jessie is a good friend.
    2. Jessie has a new "girl."
    3. The speaker wants her.
    That's just clean and effective writing.

      That’s why it’s such a great song. I think the vast majority of people will have experienced exactly what he’s referring to, put very succinctly.

      @steveofthesnow5257 2 года назад +24

      I agree I love how it gets to the point. It helps the listener establish exactly what’s going on and takes some of the strain off of having to remember the lyrics.

    Today September 16, 2021. I just came back from a Rick Springfield concert. His birthday was last week and he asked the audience to sing Happy Birthday to him. Rick is 72 years old and he's still rocking it!! What an amazing show!!!

      @mh5259 3 года назад +10

      3rd meaning of ‘moot’ , sub-meaning 2: deprived of practical significance: made abstract or purely academic -- Webster's dictionary... Now ol’ Rick, or most of us for that matter, might not have been able to cite that exact verbiage, but he did not use it incorrectly; for you see, he could tell her that he loves her, but she is Jessie's girl, so it is deprived of any practical significance because he believes she will not reciprocate…If he is guilty of anything in this instance it is low self-esteem….Now if we really want to get philosophical, one could argue that true love comes with no strings attached (i.e. reciprocation, getting what one wants, or the like), so is never insignificant. But this is Rick’s view of love and it was the 1980’s, so love as presented in pop culture usually seemed to mean some form of possession, which is self-evident in the main lyrics…” I wish I HAD Jessie’s girl” He cannot possess her, therefore his profession of “love” is…you guessed it-moot.

    I can’t believe this song from work is relatable to me now. It’s been one week since I learned my friend(crush) already has a bf. I genuinely thought we could have been more than friends but no point in orbiting around someone who’s taken. It just hurts a little having to accept that I can’t protect her smile and laughter. I listened to this album when I started to catch feelings for her. I was so stressed cause the last time I caught feelings it didn’t end very well I was depressed for months and it was dangerous. But thankfully she’s a better person and the feelings aren’t as painful. I get so internally frustrated when I see her talk to another dude. But I’m glad she is part of my life even though her stay won’t be permanent. Thank you Viky for being an amazing friend in my lonely life.

    Lyrics:
    Jessie is a friend
    Yeah I know he's been a good friend of mine
    But lately something's changed that ain't hard to define
    Jessie's got himself a girl and I want to make her mine
    And she's watching him with those eyes
    And she's loving him with that body, I just know it
    Yeah and he's holding her in his arms late, late at night
    You know I wish that I had Jessie's girl
    I wish that I had Jessie's girl
    Where can I find a woman like that?
    I play along with the charade
    There doesn't seem to be a reason to change
    You know, I feel so dirty when they start talking cute
    I wanna tell her that I love her
    But the point is probably moot
    'Cause she's watching him with those eyes
    And she's loving him with that body, I just know it
    And he's holding her in his arms late, late at night
    You know I wish that I had Jessie's girl
    I wish that I had Jessie's girl
    Where can I find a woman like that?
    Like Jessie's girl
    I wish that I had Jessie's girl
    Where can I find a woman
    Where can I find a woman like that?
    And I'm looking in the mirror all the time
    Wondering what she don't see in me
    I've been funny, I've been cool with the lines
    Ain't that the way love supposed to be?
    Tell me, where can I find a woman like that?
    You know, I wish that I had Jessie's girl
    I wish that I had Jessie's girl
    I want Jessie's girl
    Where can I find a woman like that?
    Like Jessie's girl
    I wish that I had Jessie's girl
    I want, I want Jessie's girl

    If I do not see Delaney's journey in history textbooks 20 years in the future, then I will be extremely disappointed.

      My mom and mother in law were both born in 1949 and hated all 80’s music. I will never understand

      I almost shared my birthday with him!
      August 27th 1996
      I got Alex Lifeson instead; which is also good, I guess...
