Note: I refuse to put up some copyright mumbo jumbo since I of 
course did not write the actual tabs for this song. This is only 
how I believe that Great Big Sea wrote it. This is NOT my own work 
and quite frankly if this is 100% correct then it’s just plain 
plagiarism and copyright infringement.

	It is obvious that this song is about love, but I think it is a personal interpretation about who or what is being "loved" here. The "like" in "like a country divided" could refer to the quasi-independent state Newfoundland was at the time, as well. 1

No Picture jake Average	#2 by jake battkoo at Dec 28, 2006 at 9:39 PM EST
	Clearly, this song is about Newfoundland Independence, and not about love. For example, the numbers "51 to 49" is indicative of the narrow victory of Confederation over Independence in 1949, and the phrase "you left in the morning / you left without a word" is a reference to the willingness of most Newfoundlanders' to give up their Independence without a fight.

	It's obvious that this song can be interpreted in two ways, but I believe that it is largely about Newfoundland independence. It wouldn't exactly be out of context for Great Big Sea to write about this, and the "like a country divided 51 to 49" line is the most obvious reference to the matter that I can think of. Also, notice in the music video the shirt that Newfoundland actor Allan Hawco is wearing. If that's not a shoutout to the Newfoundlanders, I don't know what is.

	I love this song. It reminds me so much of me and my love life... yeah. Not a good one, but at least I can feel like others go through it too.

	Like a country divided thats called a simile kids this is obvious a song about love

No Picture Jess Wanna Be	#6 by Jess at Aug 30, 2007 at 9:30 PM EST
	that could be so, but it does sound more like a love song. like he doesn't know where their relationship is at and he needs to know.
