Bittersweet Symphony The Verve / Cruel Intentions

Song: Bitter Sweet Symphony by The Verve
Film: Cruel Intentions
Lyrics:
'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, that's life
Tryna make ends meet
You're a slave to money then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places
Where all the veins meet yeah
No change, I can change
I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mold
I am here in my mold
But I'm a million different people
From one day to the next
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no
Have you ever been down?
Well I've never prayed
But tonight I'm on my knees yeah
I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah
I let the melody shine,
Let it cleanse my mind,
I feel free now
But the airwaves are clean and there's nobody singing to me now
No change, I can change
I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mold
I am here in my mold
And I'm a million different people
From one day to the next
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no
Have you ever been down?
I can't change it you know
I can't change it
'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life
Tryna make ends meet
Tryna find some money then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places
Where all the veins meet yeah
You know I can change, I can change
I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mold
I am here in my mold
And I'm a million different people
From one day to the next
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no
[Ad-libs:]
You've gotta change my mold, no, no, no
It's just sex and violence, melody and silence
Gotta, can't change my violence, melody and silence
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
Been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
Have you ever been down?
Have you ever been down?

Bittersweet Symphony is honestly one of the best songs ever made.

[@bittersweetbaby8646]

I know right! It's so underated!

[@regulusarcturus]

@@bittersweetbaby8646 Indeed. And Cruel Intentions is also quite underrated as well.

[@bittersweetbaby8646]

@@regulusarcturus omg it is!

[@justindaniels1315]

Fun fact; what's truly Bittersweet about this song is that the Verve didn't even own the rights to it until last year after being sued by the Rolling Stones

[@clincpb8903]

Particularly if it is performed by Richard Ashcroft !

[@indiefairy4093]

ah yes,time to cry over and over remembering the last scene

The end broke me

[@Jiltedin2007]

Ryan Phillipe and Reese Witherspoon were together in real life at the time of the movie.

[@woczykij2980]

This movie and this song have something that is on one side, beautyfull and that takes you into the deepest levels of soul, and painfull on the other, something you dont want to forget but still dont want to get more close. You want to cry and keep that feeling but still it touches something inside and it makes you fragile and that makes you close to fall apart and disapear. Ive seen this movie 15 years ago, it touches my heart the same way like before but now the pain is bigger🥺

[@oliviaminova783]

Same. This movie says never betray your love because you will betray your soul.

[@pewinini]

The song basically talks about Sebastian if you look closely and listen to the lyrics. That's why at the end, Sebastian's smile is kind of representing his revenge even though he was dead

[@narcleptik]

Wow the silenced dialogue actually really adds to the atmosphere

[@MaryBethLaviolette]

Totally agree. Composers borrow all the time! They make things better as Beethoven did when he plagiarized a few bars of music from Haydn and acknowledged it! Look at the sheet music.

[@juancarloscuervochaves5969]

This Masterpiece have a tragedy, The Rolling Stones kept the royalty’s for over 20 years, recently the Stones give back that royalty to Mr Ashcroft, former lead/vocals of The Verve… whiskey tango foxtrot
