![]() Initiatives "Taken up by the middle" as is in middle Rep/Dem, but moderates are typically the party minority and thus wishy washy on getting either side to move forward. Law/legislature) seems like an obvious reference. *The mention of "Bills", "Initiatives", etc (ie Gov. Ain't indicative of my place, left the porch ![]() By the middle, there ain't gonna be any middle any more I didn't read every comment but I was surprised I didn't see more people reference this piece : Wasn't until I read all these comments that I was reminded about the marker on unplugged and various other times he made an obvious PChoice statement live during this song. Only looked up for the Tabs, like a dozen songs a week - All I could think was "this song is about "Pro Choice". Old Man On The Mountain (new Hampshire) from 1993 Random entry on a (now) old song - but I reread these lyrics on Guitar Monster (Prob for the 2nd time in like 20 yrs).The question is, did he fall off the stool on purpose before he got the marker out?! ![]() Pearl Jamming from NebraskaYes! Love it.Hold you, feel you in my arms ever again” he sounds almost elated singing that. But at the end he has his bittersweet moment of leaving “I just need to say He’s gathering the courage to leave, warning her that this could be the last time she gets to be with him “this could be the day” but he can’t get the courage to say it ans leave. This is about a man in an abusive relationship with a woman “daily minefield “. The pro choice thing was a publicity stunt. Joe from Reading Pa So I interpret this song differently.I don't want to offend anyone in their beliefs with my belief - I think we all need to learn to understand each other better and find some middle ground after all. The only thing I'm sure we'll all agree on is that Eddie's lyrics are always open to interpretation, as he intended it, and everyone can make their story out of it, seeing themselves in some way. So in conclusion, I do believe this song might have an underlying message about pro-choice: a woman who's got pregnant, perhaps the father's not around or she doesn't see a future with him, raising a baby together, but the burden of the religious dogma requires her to give up on herself, her future. I know many won't understand me but anyways. Religion is a separate issue and we can respect our religions without becoming radical and extreme about it. Choice and abortion should be looked at through the social and medical prism and decided on that ground. First, I think "choice" and "abortion" are not equal to one another, and second, "choice/abortion" should not be mixed with religion. And both things are not connected to religion - the population in Bulgaria is religious and we have a strong tradition but abortion has never been mixed with religion. In Bulgaria, we had socialism from 1944 to 1989 (which is anti-religion) and abortion wasn't legal back then but with adopting democracy after that - it is now. I honestly can't understand how that could be illegal and I believe that it is mainly a religious thing. Abortion isn't illegal here and the fact that this is such a huge theme in USA (not only though) is quite strange to me. ![]() ![]() I have to say that I'm from Bulgaria which is in South-East Europe and in our modern history the question of Choice - whether a woman has the right to decide whether to keep their baby or not - has never even existed. Also, I think the "burden of the cross" does refer to the religious aspect of this matter - in the case of abortion. But reading some of the comments here and the references to bills (legislation), the middle (of a party), it seems to make sense. To be honest, I never thought Porch was about Pro-choice, I actually thought it was again about his father.
