Good to know that. Now finally I'll take a look at it.

"Some" people said that the song Idealizer was directed at MF in a negative way. I never really looked into it until this SAGA show came out. I looked at different interpretations.....well actually I think I only found one and that was by RMJ and with my very limited knowledge of French, but doing a lot of research into the words, "I" came up with this interpretation and I feel it's fairly accurate but I invite others to look at this song and see what they come up with.
So after controversy arose when the album was released about this song, the writer of the song said it was about a woman who had a lot of issues and eventually commited suicide. With out naming names, assuming he hasn't, I think a lot of people had trouble swallowing that.
Gotta get ready for work and will discuss more tomorrow if you care to continue this but one thing I want to remind you of is some of the pronouns I believe is the right term in this song can be interpreted as either he or she. In my translation, I used he, but if you look at the song and substitute she, it gives it an interesting meaning.

Well, I never was much interested in the interpretation of the songs. I mostly appreciate how the song is sung, sound, melody and Lili's voice. And that thing, the interpretation of the songs, is highly controversial and of much speculative nature, and I think it is only that the writer of the song knows what the song is really about. So I was never much interested in that stuff. But if you feel that it is interesting to comment upon it, then please continue.
