yeah i'm one of the very rare ones who doesn't like it. i just don't get it how can people like it so much! it has no melody. i like my music melodic. and for me music comes first, not lyrics.

Sara is just talking forever and ever and ever with some background music. i tried, since i know how immensely popular it used to be, and when i meet 10-20 yo Sara, i kinda wonder these days whether the name came from that enormous popularity. but i just can't get through the song. it bores me and depresses me.

on the other hand, SOTM seems to be the song about which fans split in the middle - they either love it or don't get why people like it that much. i think SOTM is one of SN's best FM songs and just love it and was surprised to see it on some people's lists in this thread.

i also think that other than Sara. Stevie's Tusk songs are her best grouping of FM songs.

I guess I'm dumb for liking it. I really don't care though.

why would you be dumb for liking it? plus, your opinion fits with majority opinion. and majority doesn't necessarily always have to be dumb or wrong - not everything that's popular is sh*t!

imo the most important thing is that song makes you happy, or makes you feel something, or whatever value it has for you is what matters!

dumb? that means I'm dumb, too... I love the piano and guitar work. Elle wasn't saying that we are dumb, just that she doesn't get it.

lol backing vocals is another thing that i can't stand about the song!

re "dumb" sorry if what i said made you feel that way! it wasn't meant to (see also my post above), you expressed surprise about my choice so i felt i owe you some explanation on why i dislike the song.

I didn't take offence to it. Made me feel dumb in a funny kind of way. By the way, a FM song that I can't stand is Sugar Daddy.
