Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture Johannes Wanna Be	#1 by Johannes e at Sep 17, 1978 at 2:40 AM EST
	I've always liked this song that makes depression sounds so appealing. When I take the meaning of the lyrics and the boisterous delivery of them into account, it seems like someone who has been dumped--suicide is threatened but it's a vacant threat because it's just ego bantering--what we say--for effect--when we're hurt but basically okay. Great songwriting.

No Picture Exizzle Average	#2 by Exizzle at Jul 30, 1981 at 9:44 PM EST
	It took Sting only a few minutes to write the lyrics. They are not supposed to be deep and meaningful, but more of a joke.

No Picture Michael Average	#3 by Michael Balzary A.K.A FLEA at Jul 26, 1997 at 4:49 AM EST
	I definitely agree with tapies24. I think the speaker is bitter and thinking about things, like ways to get back at the ex. He's really angry about the break-up, but has at least accepted that it's over.

No Picture Jesus Wanna Be	#4 by Jesus at Nov 22, 2000 at 12:23 AM EST
	For Gods sake!! This song is hilarious. Has no one heard of "Dark Humour." I thought I was depressed but I'm starting to wonder.
