About interpretation

Posted on November 10, 2009 at 08:34 PM

I’m going to have to steal a quote from wikipedia:

This writer, he was going on about the lyrics to “Champagne Supernova”, and he actually said to me: ‘You know, the one thing that’s stopping it being a classic is the ridiculous lyrics.’ And I went: ‘What do you mean by that?’ And he said: ‘Well, Slowly walking down the hall, faster than a cannonball — what’s that mean?’ And I went: ‘I don’t fucking know. But are you telling me, when you’ve got 60,000 people singing it, they don’t know what it means? It means something different to every one of them.’

And that, in short, is what always bothered me about people interpreting like their interpretation is the only one truth.
