I have a bone to pick with Gotye...

So I've been wanting to blog about this song for a long time. You know the one I'm talking about. You heard it played 17 million times on the radio in the past few months. And everyone and their mother did a cover.

Don't get me wrong, I think it is an awesome song. I love it, in fact! But I have some serious issues with his logic and arguments.

1. "But you didn't have to cut me off, make believe it never happened and that we were nothing!"

You're wrong, Gotye. We DID have to cut you off. At least for a while. After a break up, the only thing that can really speed up the recovery process is cutting yourself off from the other person. Take it from me...I successfully completed my 30 day he-tox, and it was well worth it.

2. "I told myself that you were right for me but felt so lonely in your company."

Seriously? Shut the fuck up. Were we THAT bad? Like so bad that it was as if you were alone? Come on. You were getting some and we were listening to your problems and we were most likely doing some kind of cooking for you. Cry me a mother fucking river.

3. "No you didn't have to stoop so low, have your friends collect your records and then change your number."

Actually, we did. It was kind of drastic, but it needed to be done.

4. "Now you're just somebody that I used to know."

Really? Really, Gotye? Stop being a little bitch. We had some great times. We probably had some really shitty times too, but it was still a relationship. Just because we're not talking or seeing each other now doesn't mean we won't in the future.

Gotye Somebody that I Used to Know
