Unless, of course, you don't play for or sing to any of your girlfriends
It's mostly because it's a bit too cheesy, and although I think that there'll be girls who think that the lyrics are written for them when I'm singing it, I'm not sure if I could deliver the song the way it's supposed to be done; without a bit of a laugh. Although I must say that I once did Bed Of Roses for someone. But that was when Seb was still green and didn't realize that the song was shit.

so yes, I sing and play for all my girlfriends. It's what the girlies love the most, and I can pretty much remember every song I ever sung for any of them.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

Nah, Jovi's one is better.
I do like Savage Garden though.
Youdontknowwhatyouretalkinboutwoman! Savage Garden's version is so kickass. I used to like Jovi's version quite a lot, but I dunno anymore... it's just kinda... as Kathleen puts it, "middle of the road-ish". Nothing great about it at all, IMO.

No, it's their own song. And I tried so carefully not to use the word "version" in my first post.

But then again, what isn't your favourite?


Anyway, imo only song on KTF that really sucks. And that is a big gap because the next best song is simply good.

Either I'm losing it, or this is the third thread in a row, that I've opened, that you've followed Deb into to tell her she loves everything. Please tell me I'm not losing it.

No Matt, you aren't imagining things. I guess the entertainment for the evening is ostracizing my posts.

Great song.... Love the words no matter how cheesy they are.

Have to say though that I agree with the acoustic suggestions. I think Jon & Richie could turn this into an awesome acoustic song so long as they dont got all TLFR on us....

Cheers
Steve

No your not losing it, I thought I was losing it, in every thread I've opened, I saw a post of JBJCrazy saying she loves (whatever with Jon in it) so much, doesn't really matter what, whatever is being talked about....

I geuss we are not losing it, someone else has.....
