  • Hey there Delilah

    The dude who wrote it is a creep

    • Dang. Just looked it up. It's a song about a girl he met once and was dating someone else, but he still wrote a damn ballad and sent her a copy. Then she had to live her life surrounded by a song about a stranger's feelings for her.

      And looking at the lyrics, they're sweet if said about a long-distance partner, but really weird to sing to a vague acquaintence.

      • It's also one of the most inescapable songs on public radio ever.
