Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture TonkpilS Average	#1 by TonkpilS at Sep 28, 2007 at 9:28 PM EST
	i think this song is about a boy and girl who have known each other for awhile and finally realize they like each other as more than a friend, it's the best thing that could be happening to them, falling in love.

No Picture Turd Fergeson Lead Player	#2 by Turd Fergeson Fergeson at Sep 29, 2007 at 5:42 PM EST
	reminds me of how i went through such a horrible breakup with my ex last year (abusive relationship), and right at the perfect time, the guy i was in love with all along comes and makes everything alright and saves me right when i needed it the most. i heard this song for the first time on the radio today and nearly cried, it instantly reminded me of how lucky i am to have someone who saves me at my weakest times and makes everything better for me. especially lately, i really need reminding that he's always been there for me.

No Picture claireus Wanna Be	#3 by claireus s at Sep 30, 2007 at 9:52 AM EST
	This song is about a girl that has changed his life for the better. Again, there aren't any specific references to differentiate between God and a girl, but these lines make it out to be a person: 'Cause when I looked into your eyes and you dared to stare right back You should have said, "Nice to meet you, I'm your other half" Catchiest lines in the best song on the album right there!

No Picture Kyle Wanna Be	#4 by Kyle Kom at Oct 2, 2007 at 6:03 PM EST
	I agree with the person opinion. Because really, how can we make God's life as good as He's made ours? IMPOSSIBLE. It's very romantic. But you must admit it'd be a little weird if you met someone and they said "Nice to meet you, I'm your other half"... because how could they know? unless they are a stalker. But that'd just be even weirder. Anyway, I do love this song. Good job Matty T

No Picture Mat Average	#5 by Mat Hancock at Oct 2, 2007 at 7:02 PM EST
	I love this song, and though I can see how it could also apply to God, for once I actually agree that it is about a girl, and how perfect for him she seems.

No Picture Turbo Grom Wanna Be	#6 by Turbo Grom at Oct 3, 2007 at 8:10 PM EST
	This song is one of my favs on the album its reallyone of those relient k songs that could be about god or a girl but to me its about a girl...This reminds me a lot of my girlfreind now who i loved since i met and she feels like my other half and its the best thing everything he says just seems to true and its like the past before we met is nothing and ive forgoten it and its really just remindsme of how great it is to have her i love her very much

No Picture Gary Wanna Be	#7 by Gary Rossington at Oct 6, 2007 at 8:39 PM EST
	Only two comments? This song means the world to me.

No Picture Kubota35 Professional	#8 by Kubota35 at Oct 8, 2007 at 9:37 AM EST
	one of the catchiest songs off the new Cd

No Picture Josh Average	#9 by Josh Sanchez at Oct 9, 2007 at 4:37 AM EST
	I Adore This Song Sooooo Much! It Reminds me Of My Mr. Weve Both Had A Lot Of Pain And Then We Found Eachother
