It's a shame that this band no longer exists but they left unforgettable classics like this one.

There will never be a day that I don't adore this song, which reminds me of the Byrds, another band I love.

[@jimmiller7386]

I've seen a lot of interpretations of these lyrics on here, so I may as well give mine. It's not a love song, as others have said, or even about life being great. In my opinion, this song is a direct hit at Hollywood, Celebrity, and the expectations of the lifestyle associated with them. This song is also about self awareness, feeling awkward, growth, change, longing and hope. Great writing skills in the simplicity of the words to express so much. First verse, (

Pretty the hu prefix means monster, so monster man, That's why in the bible mankind includes women, what's a man without a woman, nothing, and woman without man is nothing And in the bible eve was the final creation, she was the cherry on top, the crown of all creation, so I don't think the general negative view of women that people think the bible has is correct
