No Picture Jason Wanna Be	#1 by Jason Lapointe at Aug 30, 1971 at 12:16 PM EST
	Yes, but the phrase "The sun should never set upon an argument" origanated like NoirBlood said. The song is Affirmation, what else needs to be said!

No Picture Lenny Ramone Wanna Be	#2 by Lenny Ramone at Jul 13, 1980 at 3:38 PM EST
	this is one of my power theme songs yesssss. a great opener for an album, and a great album in general. =P "I believe you can't appreciate real love until you've been burned I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye," yeah... truer words were never spoken. damn i need to find this CD as soon as I move and put it on my iPod!

No Picture Mike Average	#3 by Mike Fraguglia at May 23, 1985 at 1:51 AM EST
	It's funny to see how many different ways a person can take the "sun should never set upon an arguement" line. I always thought it was more along the lines of, don't go to bed angry with someone, they might not be there the next morning. Another line I often hear a lot of different opinions about is "I believe that junkfood tastes so good because it's bad for you", some people I know take that at face value, but I think it's saying once someting's 'bad' or forbidden, it's instantly more attractive.

No Picture NEKIDBASSIST Rhythm Player	#4 by NEKIDBASSIST at Apr 3, 1987 at 11:52 AM EST
	A very motivational and inspiring song... what does ".....negate the need to be undressed" mean, anyway?? If each of us were to follow the lyrics of this song, the world would have been a better place to live in!!

No Picture 19.07.2005 Average	#5 by 19.07.2005 at Aug 8, 1987 at 3:07 PM EST
	"negates the need to be undressed" means that the feeling stops, and that you dont want to undress each other any more. So its saying your sex life dies really. So there yer go.

No Picture sam Wanna Be	#6 by sam hennessy at Feb 12, 1988 at 4:38 PM EST
	EMILY! waves The line "I believe the sun should never set upon an argument" has nothing to do with Egyptian deities...according to an interview by Savage Garden's fanclub, it was just something Darren's mother used to tell him all the time :)

	I love, love, love this song!!! And yes, it's about the simple truths that affect us everyday

No Picture Chris Rhythm Player	#9 by Chris Tattooed Soul at Dec 31, 2000 at 8:27 AM EST
	and yes, one should never go to bed angry!!!

No Picture Simon (Si) Lead Player	#10 by Simon (Si) Brown at Mar 29, 2003 at 2:32 AM EST
	I absolutly love this song every line of it gets my brain motivated to stand up and express my self and show the world who i am and what i am made of it picks me up when i am down and it isn't slow and sappy that i can't rock out to it! savage garden is the best!

No Picture Bert Wanna Be	#11 by Bert Hastings at Mar 16, 2004 at 10:49 PM EST
	I think the line "I believe forgiveness is the key to your unhappiness" is about forgiving too much, like when you're stuck in a bad relationship and keep getting hurt but still forgiving. Well, that's what it means to me, but if anyone has a different opinion I'd like to hear it :-)
