Whoa, dude, back off.

Today's song lyric analysis (with apologies to the "Clay Nation", who ever both of you are) is this Clay Aiken song about a stalker, or what?

THANK YOU!! I thought I was the only one that thought that!!

(btw, I would just like to put out there that they only reason I have ever heard it was because he was the musical guest on SNL)

I hadn't heard that song, but I don't listen to the radio much, except at the gym. Nothing like a little stalker love to make you feel all creeped out inside, I always say!

All-time best stalker love song - "Every Breath You Take" by The Police. It's such a beautiful song that you forget how unsettling the lyrics actually are!

I am so carrying a fly swatter.

Every time my husband hears this song he says "Yech, stalker."

Yep, that's stalking for sure.

Reminds me of the old Police song - "Every breath you take".....of course I didn't realize it when I heard this song in elementary school....not till university (after my first sociology course) did I think about what it really implied. - eek!

Every breath you take
Every move you make
Every bond you break
Every step you take
I'll be watching you

Every single day
Every word you say
Every game you play
Every night you stay
I'll be watching you

O can't you see
You belong to me
How my poor heart aches with every step you take

Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake
Every claim you stake
I'll be watching you

Since you've gone I been lost without a trace
I dream at night I can only see your face
I look around but it's you I can't replace
I keep crying baby please

Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake
Every claim you stake
I'll be watching you

Definitely stalker song. I'm just waiting for the stalker dude to send my kid the lyrics to that one. Blech.

I've never heard that song and now I hope I never do.

*shudders*

That isn't love...it is CREEPY.

Funny- it made me think of "Every Breath you take", too. Sting even laughed about his song being a stalker song, and all the high school kids thought it was so romantic...

I'm not too worried if the stalker is Clay Aiken.

A fly swatter would just about do it!

I've always thought that about "Every Breath You Take" and then when I heard "Invisible", absolutely. Or how about "Escape" by Enrique Iglesias? "You can run, you can hide, but you can't escape my love..."

GOOD. So I'm not the only one. IT def sounds stalkerish.

Haven't heard that song. But it definately sounds like a stalker to me! Creepy!

I saw him do that song on Leno, and at first I thought, geez, stalk much? And then I realized it's a geek song... you know... I've got a crush on you but for all you notice me I might as well be invisible... but wait... geeks *are* invisible.

Then I started thinking he wrote that song himself from experience and started feeling sorry for the little geek monster.
