It's very true to some extent: I've had Indian shop owners giving me the evil eye in their shops like I don't belong there when he doesn't even speak proper English. General CommentIf you read Axl's explanation on the cover of GN'R Lies, he explains that the song is an over generalisation and gives all the reasons why he wrote it. I don't care if this was purposefully controversial it was poignant when I was twelve years old, it is godd-ded poignant now. You spend your whole life hearing about how America is the greatest land of opportunity the world has ever seen, and yet you're still shit-poor, your family business reliant upon moonshine and methamphetamine, and people who've been in the country a month are treating you like scum? Damned right you're going to be angry and not entirely sure who to blame for your lot in life. A lot of racism, in fact, arises from the anger that poor, disenfranchised whites feel. Not all white people have it made in the shade. "One in a Million" reflects a certain reality, not necessarily shared by the majority, nakedly and without the filter of political correctness. The object of art, so the saying goes, is to hold a mirror up to reality. This tune paints a picture describing exactly the emotions of some "small town white boy" as he first sets foot in L.A., and encounters people and situations he is profoundly unfamiliar with and understandably frightened of (Rose is originally from small town Indiana).Įven if it is not autobiographical (it probably is), it is a stark portrait of a young man who has never interacted with anyone who wasn't white protestant and is freaked out by his first exposure to the hostile and apathetic "big city." Writers such as Cormac McCarthy, William Burroughs, and J G Ballard often wrote about psychopaths and the nadirs of human degradation, but that did not mean the authors themselves were sadistic, violent beasts. I have no clue as to what motivated Axl to lash out at the world, but the one thing I value above all else in art is sincerity. The song in question is called "BLUE MOON" and is present on the track list of her 2006 single " Slap that Naughty Body/My Fate".General CommentThis is a highly emotional song for me. The song has also been covered by Japanese pop-rock singer Anna Tsuchiya, who changed the lyrics to keep only the music from the original song. Miley decides to have Lilly sing it herself because her mother would appreciate that more. In the episode "Song Sung Bad", Lilly asks Miley to sing the song for her mom's birthday present because it is her favorite Hannah song. It was used as the end of the episode "Achy Jakey Heart (Part 1)". In the Hannah Montana episode "You Are So Sue-able to Me", "One in a Million" is featured in the background with Jackson. Every time I see the sparkle in your eyes." Every time I see the sparkle in your eyes." For Hannah Montana's version, the line was changed to "Can't believe that I'm so lucky. Mölling's version of the song includes the line "I feel drunk but I am sober.
