Steel Train

Steel Train - Better Love (yousendit. expires 3/13/05)

If you dated Scarlett Johansson, would you call her out in a song? Would you explain how/why you broke up? Would that make you feel better?

Sure, why the hell not. We don't get to hear her side of the story, but do we really need to? We scrutinize celebrities based on their roles and the stupid things we hear about in the news away.

"This girl, she had it kind of sweet 'til fame wept her off her feet....Hey Scarlett, you're not the same."

After Scarlett is called out as a "hollow pearl" (I'm guessing they broke up during the filming of The Girl with a Pearl Earring), you know can just imagine how the whole relationship played itself out in the end.

The song has a nice retro-country retro feel to it. The subject matter lends itself well to the feel of the song...plus it lets the listener think about what it would be like to date a moviestar before they became famous, and then what it feels like to watch them from a distance, without you. heartbreaking.
