THE ONLY EXCEPTION: ANYONE ELSE TOUCHED?

    The Only Exception is possibly one of my favorite songs from BNE because it's very personal for me. To me the song is about divorce and the emotional challenges that causes for a child. My parents divorced at a young age and I'm still torn between them.

    Is anyone else touched emotionally by this song? And if not, then what's your favorite song and why?

i think the songs is sayin that after seeing the pain both parents went thru..whilst separating...she didn't believe in love nor did she want 2 risk feeling the same pain as her parents...but clearly there is an exception and she he is beginning 2 make her believe that love really does exist and perhaps is worth the pain. It touched me 4 a difrent reason...i gave up on real love and relationships.....un til 7 months ago...when i met my guy, i'm still very guarded but i think he may just b my only exception!! :)

I absolutley love playing god!!!! Its brilliant!!! But saying that the whole album is just amazing!!

yeah i c that as a divorce song too.... :/ but my 'rents r happily married, so i wouldn't no wat it would feel like to go through that and stuff. peeps said my 'rents wouldn't make it since they only dated for 2 months then got married, but it's been true love for over 18 years of marriage. :)

ok my comment from before said "me is"....LOL I had to re-read the like 3 times before realizeng how stupid i sounded!!!!

summar♫'s picture

ME IS!!!!!! I once told myself that if love would result to my parent's position I would never fall in love. I hope some day I find my exception :) When I'm past the age of 21 lol...

Pinoyboy2829's picture

i was touched by it, i can see it as a divorce song but i can also see it as what osnapitsnicole said

ParaMarilyn's picture

totally. i was so in luv with the song that i let my choir teacher listen to it and she wants to do it for a school program now. lol

Pixie_18's picture

Yeah, I agree with you. =)
But I was meaning like...if anyone else was emotionally helped cause of this song and the big element of hope in it.

ohsnapitsnicole's picture

well yes i agree that divorce is an element, but i believe that its more positive, that its about finding love when she thought it never existed.
