Lighter Songs sung by men in woman's perspective (23) RE: Songs sung by men in woman's perspective 31 Mar 17


How about male fantasies like "If I Were the Marrying Kind"? "The Knave"? "Bucking Bronco"?

Traditional singers seem rarely to have hesitated to sing a song from the opposite sex's point of view.

Because the singer was clearly not to be identified with the narrator.

Show-biz, however, is different, where virtually every first-person song is imagined to be an expression of the singer's own mind and feelings.
