| I loooove this song even though it's sad. I never thought of Chris being a puppet catering to our needs since we cannot do it in as gifted of a fashion. BUT-the version of him doing everything to please the girl and her not caring seems to make more sense. He compares himself to a jukebox because she has complete control of him. He is like a machine or toy to her incapable of feeling. She is just using him. The part about him singing her songs to fit whatever mood is symbolic of how he reflects back whatever mood she is forcing upon him. If she is depressed or happy, she takes this out on him, and he mirrors back her emotions. He knows it's not healthy and it's killing him with the casket bit but he can't help it. At the end when he sings, "The Jukebox is in the corner. My mouth is the speaker. It plays your favorite songs and you know where the coin slot is," is Chris giving in and saying, that even though he is being treated poorly and being taken advantaged of, he knows she will come back to him not because she wants to be with him, but because she knows he'd do anything for her. This breaks his heart, but he doesn't have the courage to say no. | |
