I like the song, but I understand. Now I can see why I'd sing this song, since I'm not rich..but she is rich.

Do you think every song pop stars sing is autobiographical? Is every song you sing autobiographical?

Someone's a little defensive... *grin*


Silence seemed the only way. Now I understand it's cost.

Yes, its her version of "If I Were a Rich Man" from Fiddler. She talked about it on TRL. She says she was seeing the show and the song just hit her.

However, she than claimed the four midgets (named Love, Angel, Music and Baby) were figments of her imagination and that no one else could see them.

That's like Simple Plan singing "Welcome to my Life"
like their life is really that bad

People, they're trying to create songs that WE can connect with.

But still...I don't get it. Now she could sing "I am a Rich Girl" and I'd applause her for telling the truth.

Isn't Gwen's version a re-make. I heard the song "If I were a Rich Girl" when I was on spring break in 2000 in Cancun. The girl singing it sounds just like Gwen. Maybe she recorded it a long time ago?

Hmm... hadn't heard the song before. Love it though. I admit, Gwen gets kinda kooky on this new album, but I love it. Especially the random Harajuku girls.

Yes, thetruth, I've heard it's a remake of a dance tune, with lyrics that she added, so that's probably what you heard. I just love love LOVE it.
