The best songs are the ones that keep people guessing..
I think Carly Simon kept people in the dark for a long time about who was featuring in her song..
I'm sure it made for better sales.. haha
I suppose at certain times it's best to keep certain things quiet if a subject isn't generally accepted in society or you could get yourself into trouble.
Nice one! x
I agree! Also the mystery I think can be important. It’s like in Bread’s Guitat Man…people I think tend to like ascribing their own value to lyrics, but if the original concept strays too far from their vision, it sort of makes the song feel like less I suppose :)
Great points!! 👌
