Disclaimer: I am not actually mad at Hillary, this is just a lively debate.
No respect Hillary?! Come on! Ryan isn't singing about dancing with an actual marionette. He's saying she is like a marionette, aka puppet with strings and all, which is being controlled by someone else. The lyrics are pretty straight forward...
dancin' where the stars go blue
dancin' where the evening fell
dancin' in your wooden shoes
in a wedding gown
dancin' out on 7th street
dancin' through the underground
dancin' little marionette
are you happy now?
where do you go when you're lonely?
where do you go when you're blue?
where do you go when you're lonely?
i'll follow you
when the stars go blue
laughing with your pretty mouth
laughing with your broken eyes
laughing with your lover's tongue
in a lullabye
where do you go when you're lonely?
where do you go when you're blue?
where do you go when you're lonely?
i'll follow you
when the stars go blue
anywho. We could go on and on about Ryan Adams and Tim McGraw and who is the better musician/songwriter (which would be Ryan because I have never heard of Tim being called any of those things, rather just a singer). The fact that Ryan Adams is 32, has nine albums to his credit, on which he wrote most of the songs (some were collaborations) and also played his own instruments (not using session musicians). I would have thought you would at least tolerate him a bit more since he is considered alt country.
anywho, I'm off to read and fall asleep.
p.s. to quote Hillary, "The Beatles suck...hardcore. They are pretty much the worst group in musical history."

haha yes adams is very accomplished for being a young 32 years old. however, while tim mcgraw is not a song writer (he has tried it, he is not good), of course he's a musician! and a darn good singer. however all of these points are moot because it's not what our debate is over...
...tim mcgraw's version of that one song is 100 x's better. oh and tim uses his own band for his albums, not a studio one.
btw (nice abbreviation there, huh?), i still don't think those lyrics make any sense! i just don't get 'em??
i was going to point out as well that it's not a real marionette...but wouldn't that be funny and kinda sad to see a man dancing w/a marionette?
I'd like to see you guys debate this song:

Is AC/DC's orignal version or Celine's better?
the video is pretty funny for the dance moves.
oh dear, that's what I thought it was...
Meredith Brooks on guitar is fine, but Celine repeatedly saying, "come on girlfriend!" and using her leg as a guitar...it's just ridiculous!
haha yea i agree...ridiculous...but very funny too!
