The Reviews about Where I Stood (page 2/ 6)
------ performed by Missy Higgins


mybestfriends | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/14/09

my 2 best friends are girls and are in love with each other, but one girl is younger and is masking their relationship by having another one with a boy simultaneously. she is hurting my other friend so much but she feels this is the only way to handle the situation because her family will not accept her lesbian relationship. she hurt our other friend many times, and this is her song for her- it describes them perfectly. she actually performed a dance solo to this song tonight and i knew it had to do with the two of them- so i looked up the lyrics and cried- i love this<3



he loves her | Reviewer: Anonymous | 5/19/09

i dated this guy for a year and half. he was everything i wanted. i feel now that i might have taken him for granted because i thought he would love me, and only me, no matter what. he moved to New Jersey and he promised we could last. the night we said goodbye he kissed me over and over again. he told me he would come back and marry me. 1 month after he left he broke up with me over the computer. if that wasn't bad enough he found another girl one week later. she is standing where i stood. and it hurts badly.



:( | Reviewer: Anonymous | 5/4/09

This guy and i were really close but he liked me more than i liked him but then we got in a fight and in that time of our not speaking I realized that I actually do love him. Come to find out, in the time we weren't talking he miraculously got over me and started over with some other girl and she is standing right where I've stood. I can't stop thinking about him so whenever I hear this song I cry so hard when i think of him. It makes me realize she's where I'm supposed to be, with him.



i love this song | Reviewer: echo | 4/24/09

okay, so, this boy that is my best friend is really in love with me. i broke his heart once, and dont want to do it again. i recently started to like him, and was thinking of maybe telling him. but hearing this song i realized that i shouldnt. the part where she says "cause she will love you more than i could" made me realize that he is going to find someone who will be better for him than i would be. but this song really is amazing



this song is my life rite now... | Reviewer: kristin | 4/6/09

OMG, when i heard this song i cried so much. I am currently "broken up' with my 1st and only boyfriend of 4 yrs because i am not sure i can commit forever to him. I say 'broken up' with in quotes because he cannot let me go so it is more like i break than full break-up. I am scared because i am a different girls then when i met him and i do not 'know who am without' him because my whole adolescence from 17 to 21 has been with him. This song is exactly how i feel and what i think about every day yet i could not have said it nearly as understandable as Missy Higgins. I love her because of this song and i may use it one day to tell my guy how i feel.



What the song means | Reviewer: Anonymous | 4/2/09

This is a story about a woman who leaves the man she loves because she feels like she isn't good enough for him. These lyrics are her thoughts on the conversation that took place during the break up. She loves him, but has to let him go even though she doesnt want to. She has to allow another woman to stand where she stood, even though she doesnt want one to. If the gender roles were changed, this would fit reason for my ex breaking up with me. scary!



to me...... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/15/09

to me this song is about saying she knows she should know herself and believe in herself better before she devotes herself to this relationship. they both deserve this. she is realizing this and it is scarey but she knows she has to be strong and let it go. she knows that he deserves to be loved completely and she is not able to do that at this point cause she is still learning and discovering herself. she is saying the next girl will have gone through her own journey of knowing herself and will be at a point in her life to dare to stand where she stood and love him completely. she wants the best for him and will always be there for him. love this song and it brought me to tears.......so real and it touches us all that can relate to it.



Lost woman. | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/28/09

I think this song is about a woman who is lost. She doesn't know who she is. It's as if her whole identity is based around her relationship...and she doesn't know herself at all. I think she realizes that in order to be complete... she must let go of this relationship and find out who she is. You can't truly love someone until you love yourself completely. She is skeptical in breaking up with her boyfriend... but she knows she can't be the woman he needs. She see's love as "black or white" she doesn't realize that it should be so much more than that... and that he deserves more.



Knowing what you need | Reviewer: Kayte | 2/26/09

To me, this song is about a woman who left a man because she was depending way too much on him and was losing who she was (sounds melodramatic, but it happens). And she battles with whether or not she should leave him and he is resisting; but, she knows herself better and knows what she needs.



love the song enough to write this whole thing | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/20/09

to me this song is talking about a girl who's already broken up with the guy.
in the beginning it says how she left and it was because he wasn't giving her everything he could. to her it was either everything or nothing at all.

in the chorus she's explaining to him how she doesn't know how she'll be able to live on without him, or see him with someone else after such a long time and so much love they've held but she has to because she was the one who let go, and she knows that if she hadn't, in the end it won't be the same

when she says
" cause she will love you more then i could
she who dares to stand where i stood "

the first line sounds a little sarcastic to me. as in she won't be able to love you the way that i did at all but she might think she will because the guy is expressing to this new girl a devotion that he was afraid to show the one who's singing. the second line makes me come to this conclusion because of the way it is wrote. kind of like " how dare you " . how dare she think that she could take the place of someone who's shown more to this man then any other woman combined.

and finally with verses 3 and 4;
in 3 she's saying how she always believed that she know exactly how much his love to her. it's either he did or he didn't, which in the end he didn't. and the friendship they've kept holding onto although this new girl is around isn't going to end. " but you ain't leaving without a fight " . he obviously doesn't want to let her go. maybe he's hoping that in the future things would be the same again, that maybe he just needed time away from the whole couple stress because they've been together for so long. & this sudden fight coming from him has her " torn " . she no longer knows the meaning of love. it's not black and whites anymore. they've combined creating various shades of gray

verse 4
she is telling him that she would always be around. she'd be in his heart as he will be in hers and if he ever needs her she's only one call away. how can she not be if he's the only person she's ever truly loved ? and then she's saying... since it was you who taught me to trust myself, to reach out for the things that would help me find me, i have to find a way to be able to rely on myself and to accept this new woman in your life. ( chorus ) ; hence the line "all i know is that i should" like that's the way it's suppose to be. things fell apart and they are no longer officially eachothers anymore and so she has to learn how to live with that and during the process she has to find herself again.

:] lmao sorry about that whole longgg analogy. i've been listening to this song all week and i needed to post my story towards it somewhere. everyone elses is so basic. i had to put a story behind mine, or maybe i just wanted to put the story because it is my story . anywayss yeahh gnn
