The Reviews about She's Always A Woman (page 2/ 10)
------ performed by Billy Joel
has a lot of meanings depend on your perspective | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/24/09
the first stanza indicates that this woman pretends to be innocent "she hide like a child" but the truth is she is clever she teases you the man is weak and fell with this woman...the following stanza is like a woman who just use man for self pleasure....obviously the man who is talking in this song fell in love with a wrong girl but can't help it coz she is a woman ...
She can lead you to love
She can take you or leave you
She can ask for the truth
But she'll never believe you
And she'll take what you give her, as long as it's free
Yeah, she steals like a thief
But she's always a woman to me it indicates like an oral s#x!
Oh--she takes care of herself
She can wait if she wants
She's ahead of her time
Oh--and she never gives out
And she never gives in
She just changes her mind
actually a woman can wait without sexual life but man can't but they can take care of themselves like mas@#$ba#ing
She's Always A Woman | Reviewer: Heather | 7/9/09
This song is gorgeous in so many ways. Personally, I feel it reflects me and my own personality and it speaks directly to my heart. It describes a woman at her core. Sharp to those she doesn't know or those who may try to hurt her or the ones she loves dearly. Sometimes rougher than necessary with those she loves but continuing to love them nonetheless.
I view this song more as a man talking about the woman he loves to a stranger in terms of what she would be like to the stranger, not just the person she loves. Many of us fiercely love someone not just despite their flaws, but because of them. Simply because she CAN be that way, doesn't mean that's the way she treats him.
Personally, I treat people I don't know with a pile of caution. It takes a long time to get into my "inner circle" and for good reasons. Many women are just like me. We're not a "one size fits all" gender. We treat different people differently based on our experiences and our life lessons.
simple explanation | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/4/09
It's about the world seeing a woman's flaws, but the man who loves her gets all the "good" of her being a woman. Basically, you may see her as a hateful lying bitch, but that's just what she shows to you, what I see is all the woman anyone could ever want.
Delving too deep? | Reviewer: Josh | 6/26/09
I think you all might be looking a little too much into the background of this song. I'm not saying that isn't a clever, thoughtful way of reviewing its content, but this song resonates with me, and I've drawn my own interpretation which is far simpler. In my opinion, at the core of this song lies the fact that the author loves the subject unconditionally, and I think that's what's really important to take away from it. In any kind of relationship, one partner can unwittingly hurt the other through small actions that are easily misinterpreted. Saying that it's a "lousy relationship" is ridiculous, because if any of you have been in a relationship, you probably know that to be true.
The lyrics are powerful and paint a beautiful picture because they are vague: when I hear "carelessly cut" I imagine one partner acting in any way that might make the other second guess his/her true feelings. It's difficult to know someone's real feelings on anything, and the true impact of emotion can't be delivered by saying something like "I love you." Naturally, one or the other often wonders, "am I really loved? How can I truly know?"
Honestly, it bothers me a little that so many of you think of this as sexist, or look into Joel's personal relationships at the time as an indicator of what the song is attempting to communicate. You can never TRULY know the inner workings of an intimate relationship between two people anyway, no matter what you think you know about love. As far as being a responsible partner is concerned, neither he nor she is doing anything wrong by not spending every waking moment thinking about the other, but sometimes, one cannot help but feel "cut" by that.
I think it's a beautiful song that wonderfully depicts the wonder that is unconditional love, and if Joel was swayed by any particular event, if a particular force manipulated his emotions and this song was the result, I doubt you'll be able to read about it on Wikipedia.
What I think... | Reviewer: Serafina | 6/16/09
I think this song is so beautiful! I think it's about a man who loves a woman very much- truly and deeply. She's very independent and very unique, and despite flaws that the world sees, he'll let her be because he loves her.
It's such a haunting song... when I first heard it, I fell in love with it...
shes always a woman to me | Reviewer: karin | 6/17/09
in my opinion
this song is sexist, many men and women "love" this song and do not read the lyrics. Joel sings about the negatives and positives about a woman and at each verse states "but she is always a woman to me" no matter what she does, that is all she will be, nothing more.
Doesn't anyone see a hint of sarcasm? | Reviewer: Wes robbins | 6/1/09
He is revealing her for who she is which is a selfish, ruthless person and although she may have charm and allure it is this man who is finally coming to his senses and seeing her in her true light. I think this song is brilliant.
Infactuation is not love | Reviewer: shannon | 5/10/09
It seems ths song describes a character type of a woman. Hes desribing men who are in love with some one who is not good for them but continus to stay in the relationship. This a codependant relationship a weak man who can stand on his own and feels that the best thing he has is her and can not do any better. It could be her beauty, her sex, her money many reason. This song is what it is and to me I wish the song could express the perfect woman in lyrics versus the flawed women. I like the song anyway.
different views | Reviewer: Katey | 4/14/09
I think that everyone interprets songs differently. My interpretation of this song is that women do a lot of things that are misjudged and that only if you know someone closley can you determine who they are. He knows her deeply and loves her for who she is, and loves her mean side.at the end of the day he knows she's a woman. Women do things out of there cookie cutter mold, and that's why he knows she's a woman because shes independent and strong and thinks of herself above all is which a lot of women don't.and no matter what he sees the women inside of her even if she doesn't show it to everyone.
My interpretation | Reviewer: JustMe | 3/13/09
When the song was released the women's liberation movement was really gaining momentum and I believe a lot of men didn't understand what it meant (did liberation mean that women trying to BE men?). So to me it captures the duality a man can discover/observe when he's involved with a woman who has embraced independance/liberation in context of what society's stereotypical expectations were of what it meant to be a woman.
To me the woman does not appear to either seek or need approval or guidance from others, especially the man in her life, and she's also not taking responsibility for others reactions to how she is. She is her own person, has accepted it and is proud of it.
And for all this he still loves her and recognises her as still being very much a woman.
